MacLeod received $168,335 in donations in 2022 when he first became the National Party candidate.

Barry Soper told Heather du Plessis Allan “To forget that is incredible. It’s pretty obvious from the electoral law.”

Soper said “Chris Luxon wasted no time at all in removing him, as he has done in the past.”
