The dull sounding Regulatory Standards Bill presents one of the gravest threats to our democratic way of life to ever come before our parliament. It is a Trogan Horse bill that pretends to be about transparency, but is in fact a power grab on behalf of David Setmours Corporate masters, and if passed, will achieve what he and his ACT party failed to foist on us with his defeated Treaty Principles Bill.

In this episode of Head2Head Greens Co-Leader Marama Davidson explains why it is such a dangerous piece of proposed legislation and what we can do to stop it.

It is important to deluge the Select Committee with submissions which close in just 3 days time at 1pm on the 23rd of June . Here is the link:
