Advance New Zealand
Advance New Zealand is a political party in New Zealand that was established to contest the 2020 New Zealand general election. The party is known for its focus on promoting direct democracy, transparency in government, and policies that aim to advance the interests of New Zealanders. It has also been associated with controversial stances on COVID-19 measures and 5G technology.
Formation and Ideology[edit | edit source]
Advance New Zealand was formed through the merger of several smaller parties and interest groups, seeking to create a unified platform to contest in the national elections. The party's ideology combines elements of economic nationalism, direct democracy, and a focus on civil liberties, particularly in response to government measures during the COVID-19 pandemic.
2020 General Election[edit | edit source]
In the 2020 New Zealand general election, Advance New Zealand garnered attention for its stance against mandatory vaccination, lockdown measures, and the deployment of 5G technology, citing concerns over privacy and health. Despite a vigorous campaign, the party failed to secure a significant portion of the vote, not meeting the threshold required to enter the New Zealand Parliament.
Controversies[edit | edit source]
Advance New Zealand has been the subject of controversy, particularly for its promotion of COVID-19 misinformation and conspiracy theories. This stance has led to criticism from public health officials and other political leaders in New Zealand. The party's views on 5G technology have also been disputed by scientific experts.
Current Status and Future Prospects[edit | edit source]
Following the 2020 general election, Advance New Zealand has continued to advocate for its core policies while seeking to build its membership base and prepare for future electoral contests. The party aims to position itself as a voice for New Zealanders who are skeptical of mainstream political narratives and government policies, particularly in relation to health and technology.
