Jeanette Fitzsimons MP

Today Green Party Co-Leader Jeanette Fitzsimons visited a junior school under construction which incorporates a number of heating and energy initiatives, making it one of the most efficient schools in the country.

A Party Vote for the Green Party is a vote for:

• reducing NZ’s oil dependence and climate change emissions
• improving public transport and the rail system
• cleaning up our waterways
• increased protection of threatened species and ecosystems

The Green Party today warned communities along the path of John Key’s election schedule to cancel all appointments with the would-be Prime Minister or risk having a multi-lane highway fast-tracked through their town.
 

While the Green Party are pleased we are so high in the polls that Act is spending its small broadcasting allocation to attack us, we’d much rather they observed their own policy of ‘zero tolerance for crime’, Green Party Co-Leader Jeanette Fitzsimons says.

“Despite Labour’s rhetoric of sustainability and some baby steps towards this, their newly released transport policy is business as usual: more funding for roads,” Green Party Co-Leader Jeanette Fitzsimons says.
 
“Labour’s main initiative on sustainability is...more cars. Electric cars.

John Key’s attempts to evade discussing his party’s position on the Emissions Trading Scheme came to an abrupt end today when he was cornered by Green Party Co-Leader Jeanette Fitzsimons in a Paraparaumu mall.
