Aotearoa needs a left-wing government that breaks away from the neoliberal status quo.

We are the network that is pushing the Green Party into leading that next government.

A one-term right-wing government is not enough.

New Zealand's broken political system needs to change.

⚠️BREAKING ⚠️ 25+ arrests have been made violently by police, who are facilitating the business of war and genocide in Te Pae right now.

We, the people, say NO to the aerospace military industrial complex.

The party of ‘free speech’ wants to limit speech. Just another normal day for ACT.

So we should be ashamed for "student politics",

but we should all be "proud" to not stop a genocide?

Excerpt from a Stuff article: https://www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360846565/luxon-blasts-greens-over-peters-protest-its-not-student-politics-real-life "The Prime Minister’s calling it a “cowardly act” for which there is “no excuse”, pointing the finger squarely at the Green Party for not condemning the protests outside Peters’ house in the lead-up to it. “It's not student politics. This is real life and there are real consequences for words and how that plays out,” he says."

Here is a fun message by Prime Minister Christopher Luxon to all of our rangatahi:

New Zealand doesn't care about you.

Nothing more stimulates "economic growth" than killing people.

But soon we could export things that can kill people!

The Global Sumud Flotilla seemingly breached Israel’s blockade of Gaza while provoking an Israeli response that triggered anger and reprisals from various governments.

It’s one of the most successful acts of civil disobedience in recent history.

Deeply concerned about the safety of those on the flotilla.

We know the government will try ignore it - it's really important we all speak up and raise our voices.

This is a group of people delivering baby food to Gaza and the Government must intervene to ensure their safety.

Onboard Huga is NZ Citizen Rana Hamida, who has been abducted by the Israeli Occupation Forces against international law.

Call and email now to demand his release

Samuel Leason has been abducted QR code leads to templates of letters to send to Parliament to demand his release Image includes a sample of the letters Our government has already made it clear in recent email responses that they will not advocate for the release of the New Zealanders on board the flotilla This is unacceptable We need to apply pressure to ensure that they take every diplomatic action available New Zealand lives are on the line, and we must demand their immediate release, safe and unharmed

NZ Citizen Samuel Leason has been abducted by Israeli Occupation Forces in international waters.

The Alma, Adara, and Surius - latter of which Samuel was on - were illegally intercepted by Israeli naval vessels.

Contact MFAT, and members of the spineless Coalition Govt, to take action.
