Politicians from across the political spectrum are remembering former National MP Nikki Kaye.

Kaye died aged 44 on Saturday after a cancer battle.  

National's Mark Mitchell told Mike Hosking she was an amazing lady. 

He said that she was in the midst of her treatment when he was wanting to become a Minister, and she was sending him a full strategy on what he needed to do. 

Kaye served as the Auckland Central MP from 2008 until 2020, a seat Mitchell said she won through hard work and guts – a combination she lived her life by.  

Labour's Ginny Andersen told Hosking she will remember her energy. 

She said it was amazing to see a young woman who was so passionate and driven, but who wasn’t afraid to laugh at herself.  

Andersen said she’ll always be thankful for the stance she took on mining on Great Barrier Island, saying she has huge admiration for that strength.
