The full, unedited interview with Marama Davidson, Co-Leader of the Green Party, recorded ahead of Election 2026.
This is the complete conversation, exactly as it was recorded. Nothing has been cut, trimmed or edited.
Marama Davidson is in conversation with Andrew Curtis.
They discuss her health experience during the term, the role of government, what the Green Party stands for, the party's record in opposition, and election promises and the cost of living. They also cover the Green Party's potential coalition partners, policy trade-offs, the role of community and faith, the wealth tax, the proposed public supermarket and pricing, the youth jobs guarantee, and faith and values.
As part of our Election 2026 coverage, we invited the leaders of the major NZ political parties, and the minor parties polling over 5%, to sit down for a conversation.
Every interview is published in full and each leader speaks for themselves.
We'd encourage you to hear from all of them before you vote.
