Northland electorate National candidate Matt King.

Northland electorate National candidate Matt King.

By Matt King

I'm Matt King, your National candidate for Northland.

It's a privilege to be standing to represent you.

As a proud local boy, I have the knowledge and experience to advocate for you, your family and our communities in a National-led Government that is delivering results.

National
and Bill English's strong financial management, and your hard work, means Northlanders are getting ahead.

Here in Northland, government investment is at an all-time high.

We're building new roads, upgrading old ones, improving our schools, putting more cops on the beat, and investing in support for our most vulnerable.

We've lifted family incomes, we're making healthcare more affordable, and we're ensuring our children have real opportunities to reach their full potential.

We can do all of this because we're in a position to afford it - and because National is focussed on delivering these things for you.

On the other side of the coin, the opposition remain bitterly divided, with an untested team more that is promising everything to everyone with no thought how they'd pay for it.

A chaotic Labour/Green/NZ First Government would put everything we've achieved at risk and take Northland backwards.

But, for me, it is more than that.

For me, it is personal: I live here, Sarah and I are raising a family here.

We want the best for Northland: for our communities, for our families and for our future.

And the best way to ensure that is for Northlanders to show our strength, show our confidence, show our belief that we can in this election vote for the party and the person that can keep up the progress for you and your family.

That means party vote National and electorate vote Matt king.

Those votes together will make a real difference.

Thank you.
