Holly Walker Biography

Holly Walker is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on November 15, 1982 in Lower Hutt, Wellington Region, New Zealand. Walker was born in Lower Hutt, in 1982. Walker was raised by a mother who received the Domestic Purposes Benefit. She attended Hutt Intermediate School, Hutt School and Hutt Valley High School where she was deputy head girl.

Walker returned to New Zealand after two years at Oxford and joined the Green Party. She was the party’s Political and Media Adviser from 2009 to 2011, leading a poverty research project. In 2010, she also co-convened Young Greens of Aotearoa.

On 5 April 2012, Walker’s Lobbying Disclosure Bill was drawn from the ballot of private members’ bills and introduced to Parliament. It had originally been written by Sue Kedgley, but was narrowed in scope under Walker. The bill was modelled on a Canadian law, with similar legislation in Australia and America also being an influence. Its intention was to make interactions between MPs and lobbyists more transparent. It passed its first reading but was rejected by a parliamentary select committee in August 2013.

One day – when time and family permits – I hope to step back onto a public stage, whether in politics or in some other sphere, if for no other reason than I’m an A-type personality, and I like it. Until then, I’ll fiercely support and encourage other women to combine parenting and politics if they want to and think they can. More representative parliaments make better decisions, so we need as many mothers in there as we can get. But I’ll also tell them straight: it’s damn hard. And if it’s too hard, it’s ok. The world’s fight is being fought on many fronts, and front and centre is only one of them.

In 2006, she moved from Dunedin and began work as a media advisor to the Green Party. She moved to the Office of Treaty Settlements in 2007 and worked as an analyst. In 2007, she was named a Rhodes scholar. This led to her receiving a master’s in Developmental Studies at the University of Oxford in 2007.
