Grey Power President Denies Approving Candidate

24 Sept 2008


I have received a flyer advertising the Taupo Electorate for the forthcoming General

Election which states it is "approved by Les Howard".

I categorically deny ever approving any such document. I spoke by phone with the candidate, a Mr Robby Mac, who asked me if he could send the flyer to Grey Power Associations. My reply was that it had nothing to do with me what he sent out or to whom but that Grey Power Federation Inc is a non-political organization and could not and would not support any political party.

Mr Robby Mac has no approval to use my name to approve any document whatsoever.
