National MP Judith Collins announces she’s leaving Parliament Veteran National politician Judith Collins will become the new president of the Law Commission, leaving Parliament after more than two decades as an MP. Appointing her to the Law Commission is a shameful act of political cronyism that dangerously undermines our democracy. Making her the Law Commission President is an affront to intellectual decency, but truth be told, what more perfect vandalism of our values is there than giving a Monster the keys to the independent judiciary? If Judith Collins had fought for New Zealand half as much as she fought for herself, this country would be a better place by her hand. Judith leaving is also the last rat off Luxon’s sinking ship.
