Hi, I’m Brooke van Velden, MP for Tāmaki, and ACT Party Deputy Leader.

I am proud to be the Member of Parliament for Tāmaki and the Deputy Leader of the ACT Party of New Zealand.

I grew up in Auckland – it’s where I call home. I’m from a family of small business owners and hard workers. I’m an economist, a campaigner, and someone who cares about our stunning corner of the world.

Tāmaki is an awesome place to live with great communities, but it faces some real challenges. It takes too long to deliver infrastructure. We have to contend with raw sewage on our beaches. And crime is out of control.

My focus is to be an MP who works night and day for the people of Tāmaki, just as David Seymour does in Epsom. I will deliver on my promise to the electorate to be a stronger voice in Wellington, and a change for the better.

I am always here to listen, so if you see me out and about, please come and say ‘hello’. I hope you will tell me what you think about Tāmaki’s future, and how we can make it better for everyone who lives here. In the end, I’m here to listen and work for you!
