vowing that fight will continue no matter the outcome of the election.

of his word who is not afraid to speak his mind and stand up for what he believes is right.
“Our police do a great job and deserve to know what their future holds, to date I am not convinced we are being told the
truth so I am making a commitment no matter if I am elected or not I will continue to fight for our police and the
people of Napier.”
“I have committed the last thirteen years of my life fighting for public safety and victims’ rights so I am not about to
step away from that battle whatever the result on Saturday night.”
“Whatever the result on Saturday night I look forward to doing all I possibly can for Napier and our Police.” ENDS
