Why I'm standing
I am standing because I want my grandchildren's children to live in a thriving community and planet. I have all the information we need that Mangere, Aotearoa and the planet are facing a crisis created by our current systems. However, we lack the political motivation to change and continue to put those with before the rest. I believe I have the clarity and the passion to bring about change for a common good.
About me
I have lived, worked and played in Mangere for over 30 years. My connections with the people and the place run deep. I have been, and continue to be, a voice for the Mangere that is left behind and outside the lived experience of most of Aotearoa. I have the training, the analysis and the experience to make a difference for Mangere.
My priorities
- Recognise and treat Mangere with respect as a collective of dynamic thriving communities.
- Regenerate the natural resources of Mangere so that the land and people will thrive.
- Engage the many voices of Mangere to regenerate their intergeneration wisdom and well-being.
