Stop the proposed Dome Valley landfill as it poses huge risk to people and environment of Kaipara ki Mahurangi. Restore passenger rail services to Huapai and Helensville to help ease congestion and cut emissions. Increase funding for mental health support, with emphasis on farmers and youth as they are disproportionately affected. Why I’m running
I'm standing for Social Credit because I believe its innovative, forward thinking economic and environmental policies will provide the best future for Kiwis today and generations to come. I am strongly opposed to the Chinese Government owned Waste Management Ltd proposal to build a potentially toxic landfill in Dome Valley. I strongly support using the Reserve Bank to fund the much needed infrastructure upgrades and development in the electorate such as passenger rail to Huapai and Helensville.About me
I decided to become involved in politics when I learnt about my now inspiration, former Social Credit Leader and MP, Bruce Beetham. It is important to me that youth voices are heard as decisions made by governments have far-reaching consequences into the future. I stand for constructive politics and independent, honest criticism of government and opposition.Party list rank

Maintain the momentum of the rebuild/economy recovery post-Covid-19. Jobs. Getting our fair share of infrastructure spend. Continue support to reduce household expenses for those in need e.g. winter energy payment, reduce doctors fees. Access to healthcare. Why I’m running
It's a great privilege to get the chance to represent people on the issues that matter to them; identifying what should change and how to make things better. Standing up for the more vulnerable in our community, giving people a voice and bringing their issues to the attention of decision makers is something I am very proud of. I believe in fairness, equal opportunities and giving our kids the best possible start in life so they can have access to good jobs, decent working conditions, fair wages.About me
Living locally in the Kaipara ki Mahurangi electorate, I am very aware of the issues that matter to our community. When people talk to me about congestion on our roads or how the growth of our towns is adding to the pressures on our schools, health care facilities, and environment, I understand. I see it and experience it too. I have worked hard for my entire life, and am now using my professional experience, knowledge, and the skills I have developed over the years, to make a real difference.Party list rank

Advocate for better transport infrastructure (e.g. roads, passenger rail) in our area. Seek more classrooms for existing schools and a new school in Auckland's northwest. Ensure that the needs of the rural north are not forgotten by decision makers in Wellington and Auckland Council. Why I’m running
I want to serve the community as a local MP who continues to advocate strongly for better results in our area. Issues facing Auckland's rural north include poor transport infrastructure (for example, the rough rural roads and a lack of passenger rail) and other services needed in the area. I want to ensure that central and local government decision makers respond so that the good people of Kaipara ki Mahurangi have an even better place to live, work and play.About me
I've lived most of my life in West Auckland, currently right at the boundary of the Helensville electorate that I represent. I'm a husband, father, dog owner, Warriors fan and cricket nerd. I believe strongly in values such as personal responsibility and equality of opportunity, consistent with the principles of the National Party.Party list rank

Enable easy communication between the people that live in the area and local government, so concerns may be heard. Make sure restrictions and rules do not contradict common sense. Find a balance between economy and conservation, without sacrificing one or the other. Why I’m running
New Zealand has got it all, but I am alarmed at sudden changes implemented by government, but unasked for, by the people of this country. The government is meant to do what the citizens want. It's a cliche, but we need true equality for all, not necessarily equality of outcome. We also need fair, balanced media and truly free speech. Ordinary, hard working kiwis are supposedly at the core of concern for politicians wanting their vote at election time, this concern seems to expire once elected. About me
Being in the music business most of my life made me a grafter, adaptive, thus I developed many other skills such as communication, promotion, and management along the way. Passionate about this great little country, I am one of the many ordinary citizens that the New Conservative Party consists of - not politicians bent on careers. As a musician I feel I am something of a 'missing link', and can provide a perspective not currently present in this government. Musicians are seldom heard from. Party list rank
