Why I'm standing
Now is the time to urgently take action on climate pollution, the biodiversity crisis, inequality and poverty in Aotearoa New Zealand. Green Party values are needed in parliament and the party has the policies to help address the issues. I am standing in Whanganui to articulate Green Party policies, ensure the Greens are visible for the party vote and to get more Green MPs in parliament to make the difference.
