Luke Wijohn is just 18 years old and running for Parliament - In the Prime Minister's Electorate, no less. After being a lead organiser for NZ's Youth Strikes for Climate, Luke decided to run as a Green MP in this year's election. We chat about his desire to change the conversation we're having with and about our farmers and how to achieve transformational change in city systems like waste and transport.

Luke has a focus on getting politicians speaking to issues they have lived experience about and trying to increase youth turnout at the election this year (he's a staunch supporter of making 16 the voting age and lays out a pretty compelling case for it). We also chat about The Zero Carbon Bill and what the media gets wrong about political reporting in our MMP system.

Follow Luke on Twitter here and on Facebook here.
