Write an effective argument for our chosen political party.

Intro

Is the Green Party the one you should vote for?

Personally, I think Green should be the party you should all vote for.

Here are a few policies I would like you to read about the Green party and why you should vote for them. These include, Public Transport, Waterways and Health.

I believe that transport in our country could initially be quite important because of all these families that could have injured people or want to spend time out and about.

Public Transport

Make public transport free for under 19s.
The Green Party would make public transport free for all under 19s and free during off peak times for tertiary students, apprentices and disability beneficiaries.
Everyone under the age of 19 would be eligible for a Green Card. This would entitled them to free transport on buses, trains and commuter ferries.

This will lessen the traffic and therefore, reduce pollution.

I strongly believe this is a good idea because for some families, the cost for public transport is too high and they would be forced to drive themselves which cause more traffic and pollution.

As well as having this as very important policy in my opinion, I also believe we should have lakes and rivers safe for swimming for the public with no problems in the water that can cause anything bad.

Waterways

Make all rivers and lakes safe and swimmable.

There will be a National Policy Statement on Freshwater Management to help make sure the waters are all safe for swimming. This means, that this issued by the government to provide directions about the matters of our national significance.

I believe this is a good policy to have in our nation because to help ensure that all of our New Zealand rivers can be enjoyed by everyone, we need to stop the pollution happening and the sewage that goes into the rivers and lakes.

ALso, it’s good to enjoy swimming in our native lakes because this shows our New Zealand heritage and our fresh waters that belong to our country.

I strongly believe this is a really good policy and it shows how great our country is, but not only is this a really good policy to have in our country, but making sure our health is daily checked and making sure all our NZ citizens live healthy is very important.

Health

Extend free doctor visits to people under 18.

The green party will make GP visits and medicines free to those aged 13 to 17.

I consider this a good policy because health to me, is very important and I believe everyone should live healthy and take care of their bodies really well.

Free doctor visits could improve a lot of young children's lives, people who are sick and don’t have much money can afford these visits to help them feel better with free medicine as well.

As well as having all these policies that are great and will make big differences in our country, I also disagree with some other policies that the Green Party have come up with. Here’s one.

Allow police to search cars and houses for firearms.

Because maybe some families wouldn't want their house or their cars checked by the police.

It can be reported to the police station instead by anyone else who sees it. Also, it might be a privacy issue.

So there are policies that I don’t agree with, but with the majority, I think it’s great. Here are the points that I will wrap up.

Conclusion

There we go, hopefully I have convinced you enough to why you should vote for the Green party.

The Green party has very strong policies about our Health and Community, therefore, I think Green deserves a chance to be voted for.

I have explained about the three main policies that I think will make a bigger difference in our country and make it healthy for our citizens to live happy.

So, are you going to vote for the Green party? Cast your vote now.

My next step is to consistently use conjunctions.
