Te Pāti Māori co-leader says ACT and National are all talk no walk
Te Pāti Māori co-leader Debbie Ngārewa-Packer says the performances of National and ACT on the campaign trail show at right bloc Government would gave no solutions for those on struggle street.
Ms Ngarewa-Packer went up against ACT leader David Seymour during last week’s minor party leaders’ debate.
She says his answers were appeasing yet empty.”There was no affinity with the struggle and the pain, that a large proportion, more than 50% of our people in Aotearoa are going through. You know, there’s absolutely no solution. There was nothing, nothing that sort of, was transformational it’s just all sort of status quo,” she says.
