Episode Details

Teresa Butler, Green Party candidate for Christchurch East, is rallying voters in a Labour stronghold with a message of urgent change—families are drowning in soaring rent, power bills, and the cost of living, desperate for hope and real solutions. With deep roots in her community, 25 years in health, and a commitment to Te Tiriti and whānau, she’s stepping up to give voice to those tired of the status quo. She’s calling for lower energy costs, better solar support, and stronger housing policies—because for many, heating a single room is a luxury in large households. Butler’s pushing for the party vote to grow Green representation, insisting they’re the only ones truly listening to the people’s needs and honoring Māori values.
