Kiwi Party leader Larry Baldock announced today that
the Party would contest the by-election in Mt Albert on June
13. Nominations will close on May 4th.
“We intend to
campaign hard to make Mt Albert voters aware they have the
choice of supporting a candidate representing values based
policies,” said Mr Baldock.
“There does not seem to be
any party currently in Parliament committed to addressing
the damage done by the Labour Party’s social engineering
during their 9 years in office.
“The majority of New
Zealanders want to see the anti-smacking law repealed, the
drinking age raised as recommended this week by the law
commission, and the misery caused by legalised street
prostitution addressed. These are some of the issues the new
National led government does not appear to have on their
agenda.
“New Zealand will not navigate through the current world recession with economic solutions unless they are undergirded once again by the timeless values that have been the foundation of our nation."
