John Key

John Key is the leader of the National party. He is also the Prime Minister of our country, New Zealand. Every third year New Zealand holds a vote where New Zealanders vote to change the government or to stick with the same one. At the end of the vote there is an election held where all the votes are added up, deciding if we have a new Prime Minister or not.

Recently New Zealand citizens have voted. It has been crazy! The two top parties that received the most votes were Labour and National, but in the end National won. I think it is good that kiwi’s gets to vote for our government. I wanted Labour to win.
