Press Release: West Aucklanders Against Aerial Spraying
To All Cabinet Members: A REMINDER
A vote by you in
Cabinet this month for continued aerial spraying in any form
for the Painted Apple Moth equals NO LABOUR VOTE in the next
election.
On behalf of the 5% (10,000 people) whose health
and lives have been severely affected by the aerial
spraying.
On behalf of all the children regularly sprayed
over on the way to or at school. No studies have ever been
done on the long term health effects of this spray.
WASP
would like to invite you to bring your own children and come
and stand in the playgrounds with the children of west
Auckland next spray day.
It's time you showed some
solidarity with those you have sentenced to be sprayed for
the next three years.
We WILL remember at the ballot box,
next election.
