Hello Friend,
WATCH the Rt Hon Winston Peters discuss the latest COVID-19 alert level extension The Government announced that Auckland's Alert Level 3 will be extended until midnight Sunday, the 30th of August. This decision is about putting our country's health first, because until we secure that we cannot rebuild New Zealand's future economic health. Priority has also been given to the use of face masks, something New Zealand First have called for for based on its success in the Taiwan example. We also welcome the greater use of the NZ Defence Force to secure our borders and manage our quarantine facilities. As for our campaign, it will be a few more days until we know how it will unfold. For now, patience is a necessary virtue.
