Clayton Mitchell New Zealand First MP

The Northland by-election has not only given Northland residents a second chance but the entire country.

New Zealand First leader Winston Peters has been campaigning tirelessly around the very large electorate of Northland during the last two weeks on his ‘Send them a Message' bus tour.

I'm pleased to have been alongside him for some of the campaign and have been overwhelmed with the growing support he has gained, and is still gaining.

The comments coming back from even the staunchest National Party supporters is: 'Enough is enough, this Government isn't doing anything for Provincial New Zealand and it's time for a change”.

You only need to look at what Winston has achieved in Tauranga to understand how important it is to have a positive and proactive Elected Member of Parliament representing your electorate.

With two free harbour bridges without tolls, the Tauranga Airport and local school upgrades to name but a few of the things he's achieved, you can see why Northland should Vote Winston Peters.

All I can say is I hope everyone who feels this way gets out in force, for the North, and uses their democratic right in a positive way, for a positive change.

I will certainly be continuing with my campaigning support alongside Winston, every spare minute I have and urge others to do the same.
