Why I'm standing

I am standing to give animals a voice. Particularly greyhounds in Ōtara-Papatoetoe.

About me

I have shown that am a team player. I gathered support from four other less high-profile mayoral candidates and worked together to get our voices heard.

My priorities
  1. Top priority is always the animals. I will abolish greyhound racing at the Manukau Sports Bowl.
  2. All unwanted animal control to use non-lethal means only.
  3. All sustainability education to promote compassionate conservation and respect for all life.
