Mt Albert by-election Peter Wakeman
Peter Wakeman is a 57 year New Zealander of independent means. His work background includes several years as a commercial pilot, undertaking business ventures, retailing and investing.
He is extremely worried about several issues confronting New Zealand today.
Runaway climate change he believes is threatening the world with starvation and ultimate extinction.
Wakeman is advocating a retirement age of 55 years old funded by a financial transaction tax of 25 cents per $100.
He also believes New Zealanders need to preserve their autonomy and legal freedoms which are in danger of being swallowed up by international agreements.
