David Seymour: Auckland housing debate is politicized Epsom residents support increased housing density

Act’s David Seymour emphasizes that residents in his Epsom electorate are not opposed to urban intensification, but they resist plans for tall buildings that infringe on their privacy.

He maintains that his views on this issue have remained consistent throughout.
