    Hey Gareth, it is great that you are so fired up. Let's face it the 'clean green' image of NZ has long been waning and so it needs people like you to inspire others... those who don't usually think about it. All the best and good luck.

    Hey Gareth

    Very much looking forward to ranking you on the list - have so enjoyed our Green collaborations this last year or so. And good on you for walking the talk with your own digital campaign

    Good on you - I hope you get a good place on the list. We should be aiming not at a little over 5% but 10/15/20/25%/ more of the party vote - why not!? Then lots of great people would get in and work for NZ and green/social justice policies.

    Nice one Gareth,

    You're a great activist, a great human and will be a great MP.

    I'd recommend that you attach this url address to all material related to Green Party list selection. And on that note, do change the material and the tone for campaigning outside the party once the list selection is done. A lot of Green candidates get so busy they forget to refocus their message from 'internal' to 'external' when that time comes.

    Not to mention your down to earth approachability and friendliness! I admire your genuine concern for the future of the planet, and specifically NZ. You have more than proven that you're willing to continue tackling the probelms that we're facing with positive solutions. Aotearoa would be honored to have you working in the capacity of an MP!!
