Are you sick of this govt blaming everyone, but themselves?
Do you want to convince thousands that a better future is possible?
Your creativity, knowledge, and labour is invaluable.

The Greens will repeal the Regulatory Standards Bill.
But ACT won't give up.
They will spend millions into fooling voters that free market capitalism is the only future left for New Zealand.
However, you can help stop ACT from getting even more power.

Coup. The word is coup.
There were 159,000 written submissions on the Regulatory Standards Bill (on top of over 23,000 submissions last year) - numbers that are second only to the Treaty Principles Bill in NZ’s history.
More than 98% of public submissions were opposed.
There’s a word for this, but it’s not democracy.

Realistically, given the margin of error in this poll and the effect of overhangs, all we can really say is that, right now, the next election is too close to call.
