Richard John Northey, ONZM (born 28 April 1945) is a New Zealand politician. He was an MP from 1984 to 1990, and again from 1993 to 1996. He served on the Auckland Council between 2010 and 2013, and is a member of the Labour Party.
Member of Parliament
| Years | Term | Electorate | List | Party | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1984–1987 | 41st | Eden | Labour | ||
| 1987–1990 | 42nd | Eden | Labour | ||
| 1993–1996 | 44th | Onehunga | Labour | ||
Northey stood unsuccessfully against the Prime Minister, Robert Muldoon, in the Tamaki electorate in the 1981 election. He was first elected to Parliament in the 1984 election as MP for Eden, replacing National's Aussie Malcolm. He was re-elected in the 1987 election, but was defeated in the National Party's landslide victory in the 1990 election. In the 1993 election, however, he returned to Parliament, now representing Onehunga which he took off National's Grahame Thorne. In the 1996 election he contested the Maungakiekie seat after boundary changes caused by the introduction of mixed-member proportional (MMP) representation, but was defeated by National's Belinda Vernon. He was not ranked high enough on Labour's list to remain in Parliament.
