R Stewart writes 'people are fed up with the political system. It worked in the past but isn't now”"

The New Zealand Independent Coalition agrees with you Mr Stewart.

Your statements are reflected throughout our philosophy and polices.

Party politics no longer serves or seeks to include in policy decisions, the communities that elect them.

You have to be a party member.

As a centrist coalition we will applaud good legislation before Parliament from whatever source and work to make it better.

As independents we have no cause to be obstructive, or to look for criticism, as we are not about opposition for the sake of it.

We believe in inclusive democracy, to include the electorate in their MP's voting decision throughout the three-year term.

This will be managed through an electronic feedback site, where electorate members will be provided registered access to advise how they want their MP to vote on significant legislation, this will be binding on the MP.

Voters as R Stewart suggests in their letter, will have not more but all say in legislation that impacts on their communities and we can do this now with your vote.

We advocate for safe children, safe families and safe communities.

M O'Neill, Tauranga candidate, NZ Independent Coalition
