TheOWOTringle walks up on the podium

Hello New Zealand, today I’m launching my campaign. I’m running because I believe I am the experienced voice for Ikaroa-Rāwhiti and that I provide the best solution for not just this electorate but the entire nation. This is why I think I provide the best solution.

Firstly the Kiwi Party has the strongest climate goal of any party. The Greens claiming they're part of the climate is now a false claim, the Green votes against making New Zealand carbon neutral by 2030, and they don't have the most ambitious climate goal anymore. However, they'll tell you that this hits farmers hardest, it doesn't. My amendment they voted against wouldn't affect farmers as it doesn't affect the methane goal, so that claim is completely false.

Secondly, the Kiwi Party is a party which supports positive change for Kiwis. Thanks to us, the government are growing back forests, we are making a vital change to our ecosystems in a positive way. We will continue to make this positive change if elected. So if you want to vote for a candidate with experience, common-sense, pragmatic policy. Vote for TheOWOTringle.
