A high-profile Kiwi sex worker is running for Mayor of Hamilton saying she wants to challenge the "small minded" thinking of the current elected officials.
Lisa Lewis, who rose to fame after streaking during an All Blacks match in 2006, said in a social media post she decided to give
local body politics a crack stating current councillors and the mayor were "unfair to the many diverse cultures, religions, choices and conventional communities".
"I feel there is not a range in the position of councillors and mayoralty making bylaw decisions which are not all fair for the diverse cultures and communities of Hamilton with a one way with no side street kind of mentality."
At the top of Lewis' list of campaign promises was an indoor skate park, citing the rise of scootering popularity in New Zealand.
She also advocated for CBD parking, a "dog friendly city" with "poop the scoop" bags attached to rubbish bins in parks, fireworks restrictions and supporting the one-way door policy at central city bars between 2am and 3am.
