The Conservative Party says that climate change policies are not based on science and should be scrapped. They want New Zealand to leave the Paris Agreement, remove all taxes and restrictions on fossil fuels, and get rid of government departments and laws that deal with climate. They say cheap energy from all sources should be encouraged, but no energy type should get government subsidies.
“"Climate" policies (for example "Net Zero", new energy taxes, restrictions on fossil fuel use) are not based on science, but on the conjuring up of scary scenarios ("Global Warming").”
“Conservate Party continue to say that New Zealand should leave the Paris Agreement (and any other international agreements relating to "climate").”
“The driving idea behind all "climate" policies is not "saving the planet", but economic and social control.”
