The Mari­time Uni­on of New Zea­l­and has thanked Green MP Sue Brad­ford, who announced her resig­na­tion from Par­lia­ment today, for her sup­port for work­ers and those without a voice in the polit­ic­al pro­cess.

Mari­time Uni­on Gen­er­al Sec­ret­ary Tre­vor Han­son says Sue Brad­ford was a friend of the Mari­time Uni­on and all work­ers.

“Sue was a prin­ciple driv­en politi­cian dur­ing her time in Par­lia­ment who was ahead of her time and who provided a con­trast to many oth­er face­less rep­res­ent­at­ives.”
