DemocracyNZ was formed 1 year and 11 months ago today. It was formed on the basis of true democracy in our country and standing up for what’s right, to protect our fundamental democratic rights.
The last Election proved that democracy is not always at the forefront of voting – most people vote with fear instead of courage, and the media plays a role in perpetuating a narrative that suits themselves.
Our experience over the 18 months to the Election was that there are so many passionate Kiwis who believed in what we were standing up for – and joined us on the mission to protect our democratic rights. It also showed us how easily swayed some people are when they are fed lies – and how quickly some people can be bought off when money or power is waved at them.
We have this week deregistered DemocracyNZ. Our experience in politics recently has shown that honesty and integrity do not always prevail – it comes down to who can be bought and paid for. To succeed in politics, you often have to keep your mouth shut on certain topics for fear of falling in the polls, or go along with virtue-signalling so you look popular and in tune with your counterparts. We won’t play those games. Politics for us is about courage and service – not photo ops and selfies.
We would like to thank all our supporters for your loyalty and your steadfast passion – while we are no longer a registered political party now, we are still advocates for the things that are important to us, and that legacy will live on.
KIWIS PROTECTING OUR FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION 
Hi Matt, we are so sad to read this. You were the one person in politics that stood for what we wanted, a fair country with equal opportunity. I could not understand why or how your party did so badly in the polls, certainly those 5 people leaving were the death knell, but otherwise you did a fabulous job and we are so sad to see you leave politics.
W are better off than where we were a year ago, but a year ago we were losing the country to the Maori activist elite. We haven’t moved much from there sadly.
Thanks for all your hard work. You gave it your best shot and no man can do more.
As you say, its a rotten, rotten business.
Cheers Rod Kane

It’s a shame you’re shutting up shop. I’m surprised you weren’t aware of the ownership of politicians and gullibility of the voting public from your previous stint. The creators of Agenda 21/ sustainable development run the politicians and the world. The faces we see are just facilitators like the politicians.
