His candidacy was successful. From 1975 to 1984 Labour was in opposition, and Ross Meurant recalled that: Sir Rob has often said that when he was in government, the most irritating and damaging of his opponents was Richard Prebble. "Always at it" said Sir Rob, "Always a bother to us. Even if some thought he was mad the way he carried on, we never knew what he was going to come up with next."[4] 1984 and 1987 electionsWhen the Fourth Labour Government was formed after the 1984 elections, Prebble aligned himself with Roger Douglas, the controversial Minister of Finance, and was an associate finance minister. Douglas, Prebble and David Caygill were together dubbed "the Treasury Troika",[5] and were responsible for most of the economic reform undertaken by the Labour government. The "Rogernomics" reforms, which were based on free market economic theory, were unpopular with many traditional Labour supporters. 1990 and 1993 electionsPrebble retained his Auckland Central seat in the 1990 election. In the 1993 election, Prebble lost his seat to Sandra Lee, deputy leader of the left-wing Alliance. In the 1995 New Year Honours, Prebble was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire, for public services.[6] ACT New ZealandNew Zealand switched to the mixed-member proportional (MMP) representation electoral system in 1996. Roger Douglas established the ACT New Zealand party, and was joined by Prebble. In March 1996, Douglas stepped down as the new party's leader, and Prebble took over. 1996 electionIn the 1996 election, the first to be held under MMP, ACT won eight seats in Parliament. Prebble won the Wellington Central electorate. 1999 electionPrebble lost his Wellington Central seat in the 1999 election, but remained in Parliament as a list MP and leader of ACT. 2002 electionPrebble was re-elected as a list MP and leader of ACT in the 2002 election. RetirementPrebble was replaced as ACT leader by Rodney Hide in 2004, and did not stand in the 2005 election. Prebble's book, Out of the Red, was released on 23 October 2006. Publications
