About Me

Trevor Rogers is a former New Zealand politician.Rogers was originally a member of the National Party, representing the Howick electorate. He gained considerable public recognition for his crusade against pornography, and for his hostility towards the internet (which he saw as facilitating pornography's distribution). On 8 June 1995, Rogers quit the National Party, having become increasingly frustrated with its refusal to pursue his policies. Instead, Rogers joined the Right of Centre party (later renamed the Conservative Party), which had been founded by another dissident conservative, Ross Meurant. Rogers and Meurant eventually fell out, however, and Meurant left the party. Rogers, as the only remaining MP, became leader. In the 1996 elections, however, the Conservatives fared badly, gaining only 0.07% of the vote. Rogers lost his seat, and did not ever return to Parliament.Since leaving Parliament, Rogers has managed companies in the engineering business.
