National leader Chris Luxon used his appearance at Rātana to reaffirm his party's stance against co-governance.
During his speech, Luxon said the co-governance debate has been an increasing poor discussion and he blamed the current Government for not being "upfront or transparent" on the subject.
Chris Luxon says that today's Rātana event was an appropriate opportunity to talk about the co-governance debate.
"Frankly it's been an issue that's been in conversation now for a year, I tried to talk about it last April along similar lines. And with the new Prime Minister, as he said, he's looking at it and he's potentially looking at Three Waters and other things. I thought it was entirely appropriate to come out and say where things were."

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
