Back Jack for Mayor of Wellington.
Kia ora. If Wellington is to be a world class city we need to be having an international dialogue. Now that dialogue needs to be taking place in the top 40 cities around the world, the ones that are driving the global economy. We need to be building bridges with each one of these countries, and, their cultures.
[TEXT] But importantly, I’ve talked about unity. #backjack
we haven’t had mayors here for a long time who have built bridges between cultures #backjack
Yet I’ve practiced this my entire life #backjack
I came here in 1976, and like many of you, I’ve learned how to build a bridge with the peoples of our new home. #backjack
In this election, we have a chance to take one further step. #backjack
I believe that Wellington can be a global city, one which can claim to be world-class with a strong economy, culture and intellectual capital. #backjack
We’ve always been capable of creating innovative products and services, adapted to both a local and an international scale. #backjack
[SPOKEN] I choose to represent all Wellingtonians. This campaign is about bridging cultures not just within our city but further afield. So in this year’s Mayoral elections, put a 1 next to my name and remember together, you can’t beat Wellington.
