Don’t let the super rich buy (and dismantle) our democracy. Lots of small donations can make a difference! If every person who voted for me to be MP for Rongotai in 2023 gave $5 now, that would cover most of our Wellington Bays campaign costs this year. www.greens.org.nz/wlb_donate_g...

Genuinely don't know if the wee man is called IrnBru, Whisky or Buckfast...
