'I don't know whether it's fair': Hutt Mayor disappointed in Bishop's Parliament exit

Chris Bishop says he's had a rough couple of days, after finding himself out of Parliament after 12 years. 

The provisional vote count indicates the National front bencher's lost the Hutt South seat to Labour's Ginny Andersen - by a fractional point two percent.

Bishop has since conceded defeat.

Hutt City Mayor Ken Laban joined Nick Mills to speak about the difference Bishop's made to the Hutt, and questioned the political system for allowing such an effective MP to be out of Parliament altogether.
