Seymour replaces Whyte as ACT Leader
jamie whyte has resigned as leader of the act.
ACT's Board has appointed epsom MP David Seymour to succeed Dr Whyte as leader, president John Thompson says.
“Today i announce that I have tendered, and the Board has accepted, my resignation as Leader of ACT new zealand,” Dr Whyte said in a statement.
“Clearly I make this announcement with regret, however the election result is clear, and I must now turn to my career and my family.
“I stood to lead ACT because I believe in the party's ideas. I will continue to advance these ideas both inside and outside the Party. I do not rule out returning to a substantial role with ACT in the future.”
It is the right decision.
I may be wrong, but at 31 is Davvid Seymour the youngest party leader in NZ?
