Friend --

New Zealand First Leader, Rt Hon Winston Peters, has signed the National and NZ First coalition agreement in Wellington. This is a historic formation of three parties working together in Cabinet. 

Our agreement represents the policies that our many volunteers and supporters have advocated for. Many policies in our 2023 Election Manifesto have been included in the coalition agreement. Here are just few:

• No Foreign Buys Ban repeal
• Keep the superannuation age at 65.
• Ensure publicly funded sporting bodies support fair competition that is not compromised by rules relating to gender.
• Legislate to make English an official language of New Zealand.
• Ensure all public service departments have their primary name in English, except for those specifically related to Maori.
• End all Covid-19 vaccine mandates still in operation.
• Ensure, as a matter of urgency in establishment and completion, a full scale, wide ranging, independent inquiry conducted publicly with local and international experts, into how the Covid pandemic was handled in New Zealand.
• Stop all work on He Pua Pua
• Remove co-governance from the delivery of public services.
• Confirm that the Coalition Government does not recognise the United ations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) as having any binding legal effect on New Zealand.
• Repeal the Therapeutic Products Act 2023.
• Fund Gumboot Friday/I Am Hope Charity to $6 million per annum.
• Upgrade the Super Gold Card and Veterans Card to maximise its potential benefit for all Super Gold Card and Veteran Card holders.
• Refocus the curriculum on academic achievement and not ideology, including the removal and replacement of the gender, sexuality, and relationship-based education guidelines.
• Commit to training no fewer than 500 new frontline police within the first two years.
• Investigate the reopening of Marsden Point Refinery. This includes establishing a Fuel Security Plan to safeguard our transport and logistics systems and emergency services from any international or
  domestic disruption.
• Establish a Regional Infrastructure Fund with $1.2 billion in capital funding over the Parliamentary term.

The full list is available here. 

Thanks to our supporters - we have become a decisive voice in government.

It wasn't just about changing the government. It was about ensuring the next one is far better. We will work hard for you, the hard working kiwi battler.
