SUPPORT us to keep going was Prime Minister ’s reply when asked yesterday to speak directly to Gisborne Herald readers. It was Gisborne’s turn for the national spotlight yesterday as the PM campaigned in the East Coast ‘WE HAVE electorate. The Prime Minister was as popular as ever in her public appearances but there was a serious reason for her visit. “We have a plan, we are rolling it out,” she said as she sought voter support. “You can see it in the Titirangi A PLAN’ (Kaiti Hill) restoration work.” Ms Ardern started yesterday’s visit by meeting Whaia Titirangi Tairawhiti will not be forgotten: PM trainees at Te Poho-o-Rawiri Marae and planting a tree on Titirangi with trainee Mihikura Te Pairi. She later met business owners and EIT Tairawhiti students, and lunched with enthusiastic Labour Party supporters. Ms Ardern said the Government was investing in the environment, the Olympic Pool Complex and the Midway Surf Life Saving Club’s new building. “The Government is investing in training people, investing in our community and helping us to recover.” The three-year long $3 billion Provincial Growth Fund programme would not continue but Ms Ardern said Tairawhiti and the remainder of provincial would “absolutely not” be forgotten if Labour was re-elected. She referred to the $200 million regional strategic partnership fund to provide seed funding for regional economic development plans while much of the Covid Recovery Fund, including the Jobs for Nature programme, was “just beginning”. Asked about fears of carbon farming devastating the region, Ms Ardern said an early Labour policy announcement was directed at protecting elite and highly productive land. Converting highly productive land would become a consented activity. “It basically stops people converting (farms into forestry).” HEART-STEALER: Nine-month-old Kororia Curtis, held by mother Riria Lundon, stole the show and Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s heart with this gorgeous moment at the Toihoukura School of Visual Maori Art and Design yesterday.
