Progressive Green Party 1996 Progressive Greens Rob Fenwick: “Hi, I’m Rob Fenwick, leader of the Progressive Green Party. I’d like to take a moment to tell you how important this election is going to be for the environment. This place is very special to me. And I’m sure most of you cherish parts of New Zealand that are special, and like me worry what sort of state they are going to be in for our grandchildren. For generations, politicians have been dismissive of the green vote. And the environment has paid dearly for it. Time is running out. That is why the Progressive Green party was formed. To give our environment a clear vote in the government. No group of New Zealanders would be better equipped to represent the environment than the Progressive Greens. Candidates who are active, successful, conservationists. We are different from other Green parties. We believe in economic growth and stability. That is how we will pay for cleaning up the environment. For creating greener transport solutions. And saving our precious native birds. Principally we want your party vote. But if you are lucky enough to live in green Waitakere, vote for Mark Bellingham. He is an outstanding conservationist and would be a great MP. Mark Bellingham: “Waitakere deserves an MP who can truly represent the environmental values that are so important to people that live here.” Fenwick: “The Progressive Green party offers you the chance to make a real difference. We are your party and we are the party of your children. Progressive Greens.
