Youth Against Redefining Marriage

Youth Against Redefining Marriage

The NZ Young Conservatives are calling for improved democracy through binding referenda, especially on issues as important as Marriage. The Young Conservatives are also supporters of traditional marriage, believing that a mum and a dad is still the ideal model for a balanced home life.

We are against the re-definition of marriage, and understand that 160 pieces of legislation have already been changed to make sure that same sex relationships are given equal status under the law through Civil Unions.

We do not agree with the way the government has approached the people of New Zealand throughout the Select Committee’s process, with the committee only hearing 1% of the submissions, and rejecting a binding referendum on the issue.

The NZ Young Conservatives formed after the Conservative Party's first annual conference in October last year, and is fast growing, already with a notable presence on three university campuses across the country. The Young Conservatives are attracting sensible thinking young people. Join our movement on facebook today: Young Conservatives New Zealand.
