Guyon Espiner’s “hot reckons” attack piece this morning is the latest in the long line of what is clearly such an obsession for him - he likely lays awake at night congratulating himself for throwing yet another piece of frivolous mud at New Zealand First. The fact that his…
It is sad to see Tanya decide to leave parliament but support her decision to move back into the private sector. Tanya has been a great asset to our party and to parliament with her unique voice, strength, and passion for helping New Zealanders and representing the values,…
The state has no place in people’s bedrooms - and biological males have no place in women’s sports. Sport NZ has announced it is totally removing its gender participation guidelines due to a government direction that NZ First promised during the election and have delivered.…

Good to spend time in Picton with Mayor Nadine Taylor, MP Jamie Arbuckle and senior leaders from the ports, KiwiRail and Ferry Holdings. The ports and KiwiRail are in, boots and all, for our no nonsense ferry infrastructure. This project had got out of control under the last…
We're introducing new penalties for the cowardly criminals who use a 'coward punch', cracking down on these gutless acts of violence and ensuring real consequences for such a brutal attack
Coward punch legislation to soon become law. We have announced today, as part of the NZFirst/National coalition agreement, to bring in a specific law that will see harsher consequences for anyone who commits a coward punch. NZFirst has been fighting for this legislation for a…
Today as part of NZFirst coalition agreement we have announced legislation that will protect our first responders from assaults. Anyone who attacks women and men on the front line will be given harsher sentences and spend more time in prison. We need to draw a line in the…
