Max Bradford 'If you haven't made a mark on Parliament in 9 years you don't deserve to be there' - Simon Barnett & James Daniels Afternoons

Simon Barnett & James Daniels Afternoons

A question whether there should be term limits in Parliament...to stop people hanging around.
National MP Nick Smith is calling it quits after 30 years in the job.
He says it's due to personal reasons -- and that he's subject to an employment investigation into a "verbal altercation" in July last year.
Former Cabinet colleague Chris Finlayson says after a while in Parliament, you become institutionalised.
He says there should be term limits of about 15 years, followed by a forced sabbatical.
Former National MP and Cabinet Minister Max Bradford called Simon Barnett and Phil Gifford to have his say on the matter.
