New Zealand's first non-binary MP has farewelled Parliament, calling it a "hostile and toxic place" that wasn't built for people like them.
Outgoing Green MP Benjamin Doyle says nothing was more important than "those we love most", and it was for them "we must live, and fight, and at times choose to leave."
Doyle, of Ngāpuhi and Pākehā descent, said they chose to leave Parliament not because they want to, but because "I have chosen to put my child first."
