David Seymour hit the ground running in Hastings, defending Act’s bold vision for a leaner, freer New Zealand — slashing ministries, ditching new taxes, and rolling back red tape while championing one law for all. He brushed off controversy with grace, calling out Green Party critics without disrespect, reminding listeners they’re still people worth respecting. On fuel prices, he blamed global chaos and past missteps, pushing for domestic energy exploration as the fix. He also tackled sentencing reform, frustrated that parole boards keep undermining laws — even as he admits progress is slow. And he ended with a clear call to action: vote National locally, Act nationally — because this country’s potential deserves more than just talk.
