Parliamentary careerEdit

Having fought the seat unsuccessfully in February 1974, Gould was elected Labour MP for Southampton Test in October 1974 and held it until 1979. He worked as a television journalist from 1979 to 1983, and was then elected as MP for Dagenham from 1983, holding the seat until he resigned on 17 May 1994.

Gould was a member of Neil Kinnock's Shadow Cabinet, serving first as Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury, then as spokesman on Trade and Industry, the Environment,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> and later on Heritage. In 1992 he founded the Full Employment Forum. Later that year he was defeated in the leadership election to succeed Kinnock after the general election, which Labour had lost to the Conservative Party for the fourth election in succession. John Smith won the leadership contest,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> but Gould resigned from Smith's Shadow Cabinet on 27 September 1992 when the Shadow Cabinet rejected a referendum on the Maastricht Treaty and in protest against Labour's support for the European Exchange Rate Mechanism.<ref>Philip Webster, 'Gould quits over Labour EC policy', The Times (28 September 1992), p. 1.</ref> He resigned his parliamentary seat in May 1994 when he was about to return to New Zealand.

After ParliamentEdit

In July 1994, Gould returned to New Zealand and became Vice-Chancellor of the University of Waikato, serving until his retirement in 2004. In this position, Gould was instrumental in initiating The Great Race, a rowing race for Waikato University against international universities on the Waikato River. The Bryan Gould Cup for the women's eights race is named after him.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

In the 2005 Queen's Birthday Honours, Gould was appointed a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit, for services to tertiary education.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In October 2006, he was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Waikato.<ref name=WaikatoCalendarLink>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> He is a board member of TVNZ.
