Independent

Candidate statement

I stand for Parliament with a heart full of 'Aroha' a Spirit grounded in tika, and a vision of a better 'Aotearoa' for all. I honour the Whenua, the people and the Whakapapa of this land. I am here not for 'Power' but for 'Purpose' to be a 'Voice for the Voiceless' and a protector of the Sacred. Our Kuia and Kaumatua should not live in poverty, our babies should not go hungry. No Whanau should be without shelter, safety or hope. I will fight to end homelessness and uplift our most vulnerable - not with charity but with justice. I walk with and for our Rainbow Communities who deserve not just tolerance, but true belonging & celebration. I believe in Building a Nation where Compassion, Dignity, Equanimity, Forgiveness, Gratitude, Humility and Aroha are not just values - they are policies in action. I will honour the Treaty of Waitangi.
