After meeting Myanmar’s revolutionary groups and political prisoners, MPs say we must offer more than ‘nice words on paper’ and has urged the Govt to condemn upcoming “sham elections” being held by Myanmar’s military regime, saying NZ must not legitimise its efforts to claim an electoral mandate

The Green Party says the Government’s decision not to recognise Palestinian statehood is cowardly, and a stain on Aotearoa’s reputation as a voice for peace and justice internationally. www.greens.org.nz/govt_cowardl...

Does he agree with the Environmental Defence Society that te Tiriti o Waitangi sets out an “obligation on the Crown to legislate for effective marine management”; if not, why not?

The Green Party is calling for the voting period for Māori wards to be extended after key information was left out of voting packs.

We must speak out clearly to defend human rights in West Papua at the Pacific Island Forum. The human rights crisis in West Papua is deepening, with activists being charged for treason, journalists attacked for covering the conflict all linked to Indonesia’s growing militarisation of the territory

Conservation Week - shoutout to our ocean protectors

The Metals Company used Nauru’s seat at the International Seabed Authority to push deep-sea mining. When that stalled, they teamed up with Trump to bypass international law. Folks they don't care about the Pacific they are only in it for the cash. Shoutout to Joey Tau for keeping it real.

US - NZ relations are strained every time we don't do exactly what they demand, but submission achieves neither parity nor advantage.

At this time with the Trump administration, it's more important than ever to stand up for what we believe in.

We don’t want the FBI here and the Government isn’t clear on what they are actually doing here. The FBI is saying this office is about countering China, the Government is saying it’s not, and Luxon was only told about this at the last minute. 78 days after Judith found out

Did you know that Israel has visa waiver access into New Zealand but Samoa, Tonga and Fiji do not. Let that sink in.

Israel continues to murder journalists and use starvation as a weapon of war against a civilian population in its genocide against the Palestinians. Yet New Zealand drags its feet in doing the bare minimum to acknowledge the dignity of Palestinians by recognising Palestinian statehood. Kia tere 🇵🇸

Make a submission to Protect Worker Rights. Everyone who works in Aotearoa New Zealand deserves a fair and clear process for personal grievances, secure employment conditions and access to their union. action.greens.org.nz/era_subsguid...

The Green Party says proposed changes to the Employment Relations Act announced today by the Government will further undermine workers’ rights while pandering to big business.

This cruel Bill will cut off our most vulnerable workers from the rights that belong to them
