あらすじ・解説
Sir Bob Jones has died at the age of 85 and being remembered for the splash he made in New Zealand politics.
He died peacefully at his Wellington home surrounded by family after a brief illness.
In 1984, he launched the New Zealand Party to protest Robert Muldoon's National Party Government, winning 12.5% of the vote in 1984.
Radio Hauraki Host Jeremy Wells told Matt Heath and Tyler Adams that Jones loomed large over the political landscape, and New Zealand landscape as a whole.
Jones always gave people his time, Wells says, and his stories were second to none.
“He was a great raconteur, an amazing conversationalist, even if at times it was more of a listening exercise for the other person involved in the conversation – you we’re definitely happy to listen.”
