Jami-Lee Ross Biography

Jami-Lee Ross is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on December 10, 1985 in New Zealand. Jami-Lee Mateenga Ross, a New Zealand independent politician, was born 10 December 1985. He has been the Member for Parliament (MP), Botany electorate since March 2011, when he became New Zealand’s youngest MP. He was previously a local politician on Auckland Council, and was, from 18 years old, on the Manukau City Council.

Ross was raised by his grandmother because his mother “was not in the best place to raise a child” and he has never met the father of his family, who are Maori iwi from Ngati Porou. Ross attended Dilworth School, which was a boarding school for students from hard backgrounds. He then went to Pakuranga College but left without any formal qualifications. After training at Ardmore Flying School, he holds a commercial pilot’s license. He is also a student at the University of Auckland, where he studied economics and politics.

Ross served as one of the National Party’s whips in Parliament. He was appointed Third Whip in 2013, was promoted to Junior Whip after the 2014 election, and elected as Senior Whip after the incumbent Tim Macindoe was appointed as Minister of Customs in May 2017. Ross contested the Botany seat during the 2017 election and was re-elected again.

On 15 October 2018, National Leader Simon Bridges stated that Ross had been identified as the National Party leaker after the party’s inquiry into the leaking of Bridges’ travel expenses. Bridges said the inquiry report identified Ross as the most likely source of the leak, and he accepted that finding. Ross denied the accusations and issued a series of tweets prior to the press conference alleging that Bridges had attempted to silence him for speaking out against his leadership decisions, including an election donation that allegedly broke the law. Bridges also indicated that National would seek disciplinary action against Ross.

In the Auckland 2010 local elections, he stood for a spot on the new Auckland Council and won a seat in the Howick ward. He was elected co-leader for the Citizens & Ratepayers party. After being elected to Parliament, he resigned as a member of the Council on March 7, 2011.

The National Party elected Ross on 27 January 2011 to represent them in the Botany byelection, to be held 5 March 2011. This was to fill the vacancy left by Pansy Wong’s resignation. With a majority vote of 3,972, he won the election. Ross was sworn into Parliament and became the youngest member of Parliament. He took the title of “Baby of the House” from Gareth Hughes (Green Party MP). Ross was reelected in November 2011 and again in 2014 as the MP for Botany.

On 19 October, Katrina Bungard, the National candidate for Manurewa, identified herself as one of the four women who had allegedly been harassed by Ross. She praised the way that National had dealt with the complaints and the other women for coming forward with the allegations. Ross indicated that he was seeking legal options. Later that day in an interview with Newstalk ZB journalist Heather Du Plessis Allan, Ross admitted to past extramarital affairs with two women – including a married MP. He also announced that he would not resign his seat in Parliament. He currently continues to represent the Botany electorate as an independent MP.
