High-profile Mana Party candidate Annette Sykes from Rotorua will be hard to miss in her sign-written bus while touring the electorate.
The Mana candidate for Waiariki started her electorate bus tour on Saturday in Tauranga.
"I'm looking forward to getting out and about in my electorate this coming week visiting significant waahi tapu [sacred sites] of our whanau and hapu that are being hurt by multi-national companies through local council development plans without proper consultation," she said. "I have always fought for the people to keep their land, language and own leadership models and I am going to take the war on the poor from the court rooms of this country to the lands and streets and get rid of the National Government in Waiariki."
The Mana bus will visit communities in Tauranga, Whakatane, Taupo, Turangi, Kawerau, Rotorua and Turangi during her five-day tour in the coming weeks.
