Todd Muller, a senior New Zealand politician, was head of the country’s National Party and the Leader of Opposition, after entering Parliament in 2014.
The leader of New Zealand’s National Party and Opposition, Todd Muller, announced in a Tuesday statement that he had stepped down from his position due to health reasons.
Muller also outlined that he believed that it is “more important than ever” for the country’s National Party to have “a leader who is comfortable in the role”.
The former political leader noted that he would “take some time out of the spotlight” to spend with his family before “reconnecting with my community”.
Muller entered the parliament of New Zealand in 2014 as National’s candidate from the Bay of Plenty. He became the leader of the National Party and Leader of the Opposition in 2020, after challenging former leader Simon Bridges. Muller served in this position for just 53 days.
New Zealand’s National Party is one of the country’s two major parties, a traditional rival to New Zealand’s Labour Party.
