Why I'm standing
I'm running to be a strong voice for Ōtepoti. We need someone who will stand for climate action and against cuts to our uni and polytech and the hospital rebuild. The Greens are the only party that will fundamentally address the broken systems that have neglected our city, our communities and our planet. Vote Green to rebalance wealth and fund accessible, local public services, tax cuts for 97.5% of New Zealanders, free dental, and climate action.
About me
I have a proven track record of strongly advocating for my constituents and delivering change. As OUSA President, I delivered free breakfasts, student bus fare discounts and bought town and gown together through student volunteering projects to clean up our streets. At the Climate Commission, I recommended ambitious waste reduction targets that the government adopted. You can trust me to stand up for Dunedin - for our hospital rebuild, our tertiary sector and for nature.
My priorities
- Fight the hospital and tertiary sector cuts so that we can keep jobs and services local.
- Ensure climate action through home energy grants and support climate resilience in South Dunedin and Otago.
- Rebalance wealth to provide free dental, tax cuts and healthier homes so that our people can thrive.
