Reform New Zealand
Reform New Zealand was a
classical liberal political party in New Zealand. The party was established in 2011 by dissatisfied members of ACT New Zealand, and advocates of similar policies of low taxation,[1] privatisation,[2] and reduced government.[3] The party never registered on any opinion polls, named its party leadership, or confirmed its organisational details. While claiming that it planned to contest the 2011 election[4] it never attempted to register with the Electoral Commission
and did not stand any candidates.
It listed its policies as opposition to the current Key administration's
Māori Party; restoration of the Employment Contracts Act anti-union industrial relations legislation of the nineties; climate change denial; and sharp reduction in public sector employment through asset sale privatisation, as well as reduction of social welfare
expenditure.
