TWO DAYS NZ registration cuts off in the midst of this holiday weekend (not after it) 300k+ missing voters elections.nz/stats-and-re... No it’s not more organised No it won’t speed up vote count Yes it is voter suppression Yes it unfairly advantages wealthy/older voters SO Get registered!

We can all use our voices and votes for te taiao nature this election - but we MUST be enrolled by midnight THIS SUNDAY ‼️‼️

We can have a Govt who prioritises the health of our people and te taiao environment, who gets big money and dodgy vested interests out of politics. But only if we get everyone we know enrolled by midnight SUNDAY 25TH OCT ‼️‼️

We can have a Govt who prioritises the health of our people ✊️💚✅️✅️ We've listened to experts and community. Our fully costed Plan will deliver more staff, shorter wait times and a healthier country where public health funding will increase by $3 billion every year totalling $32b over four years.

Knock knock....who's there? Why your next Govt with a strong Green heart, powered by the people and a drive to deliver affordable bills, healthy nature and honest politics of course 💚🌏✅️✅️ Get amongst. With 6 days till voting begins - it's now or never. Link in comments to rsvp in Pōneke ✊️

There was mega spring in everyone's step at Tawa Spring Market to vote out this horrific Government. Awesome to hear what people want from a Government - big $$ out of politics, lower bills and protect nature. That's exactly what a strong green-led Government can deliver 🫡 Party Vote Green 💚 🌏

It's political debate frenzy time. Democracy is wonderful. And chaotic. And sure, it can be brutal. But it's so very necessary & important. Mad respect to all those epic groups who organise these debates 🫡👏 9 days left to enrol. Vote.nz to enrol now and let's get the power back with the people ✊️

Yet another example of the Government being nothing but an industry puppet ☠️☠️ How about a Govt that *actually* governs for what's best for our people and te taiao environment instead of private profit for the wealthy corporations and billionaire shareholders? Get enrolled team ✊️🌏

Nature frothing in Te Tairāwhiti 🦋🌸🌳 Ngā mihi nui to the epic manaakitanga of the beautiful people who hosted me from Waikereru to Gray's Bush &more We can choose a Govt that will back our communities and our environment ✊️and that's exactly what the Greens are putting on the table this election 💚

In economics we call this failure. In politics its called object failure and omnishambles. PREFU stands for Pre Election Fiscal Update and is given before each of our elections. You can work out who was in power for each PREFU yourself

In Te Tairāwhiti Gisborne and it was jobs jobs jobs that kept coming up. Our beautiful, equitable future ahead can *not only* centre our young people - but secure decent, meaningful jobs that build a country where care for each other and te taiao is simply how we work - for all of us 🌏✊️

The only part of te taiao nature that gets to vote.... is you 🦞🌏 Let's vote Green for an Aotearoa where everyone, especially our kids &future generations have healthy freshwater and oceans to Drink Swim and Fish in, forever ✊️ Affordable lives, healthy nature and honest politics - For all of us.

Yeah naaaaaa ☠️☠️ Kiwis don't want a Govt that is so out of touch they think they can continue to exploit and pillage our only ocean for a quick buck for industry till our ecosystems are functionally screwed. Drink. Swim. Fish. Let's prioritise the health of te taiao our environment for all of us ✊️

Tākaka on form ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 and ready for a Green-led Government who has the plans and the political will to prioritise affordable lives, healthy nature and a democratic and honest politics that operates for ALL of us, not just the wealthy few.

Absolute honour to recieve "Rethinking Health" by Doctors and Poets Art Nahill and Glen Colquhoun. It shouldn't be too much to place care for our people and care for te taiao at the heart of decision making. Nov 7= opportunity to renew - with the voices and mātauranga of our people at the centre ✊️

Imagine claiming to be the Government that will 'fix the economy', and then undermining and exploiting te taiao which is the actual backbone of our economy - along with the reputation and trade deals we rely on - and thinking that's progress ☠️☠️🤡🤡 Luxon = Flubbing the basics and screwing our future.

Epic day with these legends on the doors around Rānui and Cannons Creek in Porirua. The talk was all about affordable lives (especially Kiwimart and Kiwipower), healthy nature (estuary health and protecting conservation land) and politics for the people (capping donations and rules on lobbying) ✊️

It's election season in Porirua with the by-election for Porirua city council with our legendary high school teacher Zac Painting in the running 👏👏 Incredible mahi of course demands incredible kai and that's exactly what our phenomenal volunteers delivered 🥹😋

The Government is consistently play kiwis for chumps. They make laws that benefit big polluters and fossil fuel corporates who make record profits while the rest of us pick up the tab with more polluted drinking water and rivers and beaches we can't swim in. It's time to take the power back ✊️🌏

In the bleakness of Government's final week of parliament, where polluters and profiteers who benefit from destroying or exploiting te taiao write the rules - there was a shining light in the form of the Takaka community petition to expand Kahurangi national park to protect Te Waikoropupu Springs 🌏✊️

Shoutout to all the rural communities and leading farmers who are getting in touch to say how they disagree with the Government's bills that remove, weaken or delay environmental protections and who don't feel represented by Big Ag lobby groups or served by this Govt. We stand with you ✊️

More environmental vandalism with last minute changes that remove the ability for councils to set rules that would protect marine biodiversity ☠️☠️ It is beyond time for NZ to stop letting down ourselves and the rest of our Pacific neighbours in the pitiful protection of less than 1% of our ocean.

In this Coal-alition Government's last gasp at power they are embedding climate denialism and environmental destruction into our core laws that are meant to protect the health of our people and te taiao environment ☠️☠️

Ngā mihi nui to Forest&Bird welly branch for organising a picnic at parliament to tautoko the epic 35,000 strong march in Tāmaki Makaurau ✊️ The Green Party will ensure that conservation land is managed for nature, not for profit, and that there are strong limits on pollution or environmental harm.

Our Govt is so extremely destructive, 7 past Conservation Ministers have united to spell out just how bonkers their bills is 2mo (Sat 1pm) the good people of Tāmaki Makaurau will take to the streets and parliament lawn (in Pōneke) to March for nature. Don't sit this one out. Nature needs you ✊️🌏🌳

This Govt have designed a new resource management system that decimates environmental protections and embeds climate denialism right into our core planning&environment laws. This is what governing for greed over public good delivers for NZers. Runaway pollution and harm to our people and te taiao ☠️

The Govt has such a warped understanding of anything that holds any real value - clean freshwater, healthy oceans& climate to grow food. They're fanatic about taxes, without any concept of how they're immeasurably costing the public and future generations who will ultimately pay the costs ☠️

49 days till voting starts. 48 days left to enrol. Titahi bay on form - so much determination to change the Govt and what better way to secure a future for all of us, than with a Green-led Government 🌏💚 Don't sit this one out. Enrol. Vote. Spread the word. Party Vote Green - for all of us 🐧👶👵🌳 ✅️

Hours of debate and proposing sensible changes got NZ absolutely nowhere but a race to the bottom thanks to the Government *choosing* to bury it's head in the sand and kick all of our urgent environmental issues down the road for our kids and future generations to pay the price ☠️☠️

Our most anti-environment Govt ever - has officially lost the plot in embedding environmental destruction and climate denialism and delay into the heart of their new Planning and Environment laws ☠️☠️ It's possible& necessary to prioritise the health of our people& environment 🌏 this ain't that.

Kiwis are connected to te taiao nature, and like Margaret, we will fight for our last remaining wild places ✊️ The Coal-alition Govt want to dam and drown the Makaroro river, including public Conservation land, to allow for more farming intensification and a quick buck for their Ag Industry mates.
