Speaking today at 12 noon at UC about new rules that will stop up to 200,000 people voting & won’t speed up vote counts. National & Act & NZF blocked, actually blocked enrolment by NZers within 13 days before elections The ability of parties to block voters from voting like this must be stopped

What are you proposing that would stop Parliament legislating in this way?

1)regs for transparency of lobbying so that voters have better trust in the legislative process 2) we need to improve the electoral act so that the right to vote vote registration is entrenched 3) while parliament is sovereign use of urgency needs review /attorney Gen etc 4) cap on donations

None of these are direct @drdeanknight.bsky.social has been thinking of strengthening institutions- the latest amendment papers trick is really marginal too- many other suggestions - writing a paper on it- what are your favoured options?

It’s an interesting time because the major parties are losing votes and lack of trust is a growing issue - so tackling their donations and lobbying and the way they approach urgency matters- there is no way I’d give govt a 4 Year term with such weak institutional checks in executive power right now
