This party wants rivers and lakes kept clean and natural, and says water belongs to all New Zealanders and cannot be sold. They want to stop trawling in coastal fisheries, leaving them for recreational anglers to manage. They oppose the use of 1080 poison. On climate change, they believe how people choose to live — not government rules — should drive change.
“Our rivers and lakes should be kept clean, full and in a natural state for the people to enjoy and gather food — water belongs to us and is not for sale.”
“Recreational anglers, not trawlers, enjoying and managing our inshore fisheries for abundance — no more trawling of our coastal fisheries.”
“A society where how we live, not regulations, will mitigate climate change.”
