Kia ora Friend --
Countdown Conversations – Week 14
Kia ora
Ko te hau o te aroha te rere atu nā
ki hō koutou kāinga maha me te tangi tonu ki ngā mate i te wā iti
nei. Tahia te pō, tū mai te ao!
What a week!
The government have finally seen
the light with the Armed Response Team trial and it’s not going
ahead. As president, I challenged the government at Rātana in January
this year and the silence was deafening…
We have also been informed of our
Television and Broadcasting allocation funding. Though it is an
increase, the two big parties receive over $2m together and we receive
$145k. This isn’t fair and a number of the minor parties have jointly
challenged the system in a press release shared in the Spinoff yesterday.
Te Whakamāunu Waka – Campaign Launch - Saturday 20 June,
10:00am
We are inviting you to our Party
Campaign Launch on Saturday 20 June at Hoani Waititi Marae, 451 West Coast Road, Oratia, West Auckland
0602.
This is our chance to celebrate and
invigorate ourselves as we prepare for the biggest campaign since we
established the Party. We need your tautoko and presence at the
campaign launch so please RSVP to Rose (reply to this email) so we
cater properly and celebrate our first big hui since the rāhui
started.
We will be launching our campaign
and key messaging and the first of our major policies and if you
haven’t noticed already, we are a liberated and free voice that can
challenge the large numbers who have been silenced during this term of
government.
Now that we have our Campaign in
this date, we will now move our National Council hui to zoom, the
following week and details will e sent to your
representatives.
E 14 wiki e toe ana – 14 weeks to go
The clock keeps ticking and our
billboards are getting printed. The regulated period starts this
month so we will be erecting our billboards around the
country.
We need help so please contact the
candidates to see whether you can help put up billboards or you have a
strategic property that will help with good coverage to promote our
candidates and the party.
We also need money. We have seen the bias where National
and Labour get over $2m to fight this election and we get given crumbs
so we ask that members and your friends donate
to the party to help build up our pūtea to win seats and return back
to Parliament come 19 September.
We are the free Māori voice. We are a liberated Māori
voice that won’t be silenced so please donate
$5 or $25
or $50 or
more, click here
to help us return back to Parliament.
We look forward to seeing you in
person next week at the launch.
Arohanui
Che Wilson
