NICOLA GRIGG looks a good fit for<br />
retiring <strong>Selwyn</strong> MP Amy Adams (see pages<br />
9,10,11).<br />
Adams and her National predeccesors<br />
have had a stranglehold on the electorate<br />
for a long, long time.<br />
Grigg may have more challenges with the recent boundary<br />
changes and the changing demographic in the <strong>Selwyn</strong> district.<br />
But she’s odds-on to retain the seat for National in next year’s<br />
election, in my humble - and unbiased - view anyway.<br />
Grigg popped into the office last week. She’s a very affable<br />
individual, with a good brain, good sense of humour and she<br />
knows the political system, inside and out.<br />
She was also a journalist in a previous life, before being press<br />
secretary for Bill English.<br />
So she must be good!<br />
