This petition is important because if allowed to continue, the New Zealand government will, by breaching the rights of all New Zealanders, continue to widen the gap between the rich and the poor, and turn this country into a poverty stricken third world nation.
In this respect we, the undersigned, refer to the following as reasons for a Vote of No Confidence be lodged against the New Zealand Government:

1. Breaches of the NZ Human Right Act in regards to the changes the NZ Government has done against the human dignity of people reliant on welfare. This includes the unemployed, solo parents, the sick, and invalids. We fear that our present government is eroding the freedoms of the people of New Zealand by passing bills that are detriment to the well being of our Nation. That people who are forced off welfare will resort to criminal activity, thus further widening the gap between the rich and the poor. We believe that this present government hasn't lived up to its promise of a Brighter Future, at least not for the majority of New Zealanders.

2.The current government has compromised the privacy of all New Zealanders with their GCSB Amendment Bill. We refer to a statement made on Friday 12 July 2013 by the New Zealand Human Rights Commission that chief commissioner David Rutherford said "The Commission is concerned that the proposed bills are wide-reaching without sufficient safeguards against abuse of power..." All citizens of New Zealand are now subject to their privacy being breeched by the government or one or many of their agencies.
