Minto in Auckland Mayoral Race

PRESS RELEASE

Minto Throws His Hat in the Ring for MANA in Auckland Mayoral Race

Thursday May 2nd 2013


Last night the MANA Co-Vice President John Minto was endorsed as an official MANA Movement candidate for the Auckland supercity mayoralty.

John is looking forward to the campaign.

“Heaven knows Auckland needs a break from the dreadful policies of the past which have left the majority of Aucklanders struggling to get ahead.”

“It’s a great opportunity to get MANA’s messages out there to the people of Auckland and give them a real choice in the mayoral race.”

The election will be fought over :

• Traffic gridlock
• Affordable rental housing
• A living wage for Aucklanders
• Who runs the supercity – Auckland or Wellington?
• Rates and council charges

MANA is putting the final touches to policy in each of these areas and we’ll announce them following the MANA campaign launch for the mayoralty – date yet to be finalised.

In due course MANA will also announce policies covering other important issues facing the city.
