The old guard are being challenged by new blood in both Upper Hutt and Lower Hutt in the upcoming local body elections. Upper Hutt mayor Wayne Guppy is facing a challenge from 38 year-old councillor Steve Taylor and in Lower Hutt 29 year-old councillor Campbell Barry is trying to unseat Mayor Ray Wallace. The former Mayor of Porirua Nick Leggett was just 19 years-old when he was voted onto Council for the first time. He talks about why youth is an asset in local politics.
