Here’s a few more of my favourites from the voteforus.co.nz design your own billboard site. First up, well why wouldn’t you vote for this:
Several witty people kept submitting pictures of watermelons, but I like this one better:
What’s going on in this one? Are they looking in each other’s eyes or breaking up? I desperately want to know the back story:
And this one is a sweet switch of generations, reminding us of the other place that lots of new Green support is coming from this election:

I like the irony of the bottom billboard – the old couple with the beach behind them. Should be called “memories’.
Would the Greens support the Maori party to repeal the Seabed and Foreshore Act if you end up in a Lab/Maori/Green coalition?

I made a couple of billboards. At first I thought the Green’s were guilty of false advertising, but I found a press release from Russel and Jeanette that cleared things up: Election Billboards

“Would the Greens support the Maori party to repeal the Seabed and Foreshore Act if you end up in a Lab/Maori/Green coalition?”
The Green Party campaigned very hard to keep Labour from extinguishing Maori’s right to take their case to court and would certainly support a repeal so that they may do so regardless of who forms the next govt.

Yes, Valis, this is the sort of “issue by issue” basis the Greens are prepared to work with National on, even though we don’t support them leading the next Government.
But, say, if National were to do a deal for Government with the Maori Party that involved repealing the Foreshore and Seabed Act (which isn’t beyond the imagination) the Greens would still support repeal.
Or if National were in Opposition, Labour and the Greens in Government, and National agreed to supporting repeal of the Foreshore and Seabed Act just to try to embarrass the Government, the Greens would still support repeal.
The Greens are a party of principle, and those principles don’t change according to whether we are in Government or not. If we do end up governing with Labour, expect some issues where we will not support Labour-promoted Government legislation.
