Former Labour Cabinet Minister Stuart Nash says he's found his true home in New Zealand First.
He's contesting the Napier electorate for the party this election - against National's Katie Nimon.
Nash had to lay low last year after getting in hot water for making vulgar comments about women.
He's taken aim at his former party, and claims NZ First is the only party that stands up for hard workers.
"This is the party that works hard to celebrate success, it stands up for those that work the hardest as opposed to complain the loudest."
