Tamati Coffey is back in the political scene after being elected a Labour Party spokesperson.
Coffey's election to the role comes as part of a complete restructure of the wider Rotorua Labour Electorate Committee, reports Fairfax.
Tamati Coffey has been elected a Labour Party spokesperson.
"We learned many lessons from the last election despite putting in a mammoth effort," says Tamati.
"We kept the incumbents on their toes and aspire to keep doing that. It's what living in a democracy is all about."
A strong focus of youth and experience has seen 15 seats filled by elected local representatives from across a range of cultures, backgrounds, industries and ages.
'We needed to organise ourselves better, to make sure that our systems were the best that they could be,” says Tamati.
'We now have two young, strong co-chair people who are actively involved in education and business sectors of the electorate, people who bring a fresh new approach to the table.”

For the red rent-a-mob? Much as Winston first relies on charm and good looks in place of substance and actions, it would now appear that Labour are stooping to the same shallow depths. Labour now has a bitter and angry leader that is focusing on negativity rather that positive action and a new mouthpiece that can be sent into the retirement villages for a nice cup of tea and a chat about the weather and hopefully woo the Winston followers back to red. Politics is moving away from policy and lawmaking and into a personality contest.
