A very fair-minded retrospective. Congratulations on an admirable platform and campaign, irrespective of the result! I too am disappointed (but largely unsurprised) that the voting by party name seems to have dominated in spite of so many people's obvious disenchantment with the major established parties, across the country. I do hope you'll stay involved in politics in some form or other, and consider running again in the future. Reform-minded persons of conviction are sadly all too rare in the contemporary political scene.

Thanks very much Alexander! Yes I'm definitely going to stay involved.
