Anti-disinformation and conspiracy theories in Aotearoa New Zealand. Don't be duped.
Whether against Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke, Ghahraman, Ardern, other MPs, Wiles, Bloomfield, & others involved in pandemic response, transgender activists, drag queens, judges, lawyers or academics - effects of doxxing are inherently harmful, & often leads to kinetic violence or vandalism.

She lays out VFF's plan well: "VFF are the 101 freedom fighter's - put another way, we are deliberately appealing to people just waking up to the tyranny."
More to come.

He's a NZ First supporting, Ivermectin promoting, anti-vaccine acitivist who has said "The corrupt system is being exposed like never before thanks to the fact that we must walk through this valley. Only an awakened people can fight and defeat this pervading evil inherent within our system"

Westwards' Kevin Murphy is running for local board and is a VFF coordinator. He is extremely active on Telegram. Like all VFF coordinators, they have been using RCR's anti-climate change action documentary Managed out as a way to attract normies to movement, inviting his Westwards mates.

Craig Lord claims not to be a conspiracy theorist yet in 2022 he said "βI will not run around in circles yelling the sky is falling, just because we are told to by the United Nationsβ while in a September 1 tweet, he said: βIβll be fighting against 2030 and WEF [World Economic Forum].β"
/10
Westwards also have Allan Geddes. He's shared Brian Tamaki's Freedom's and Rights Coaliton, disinfo spreader The Daily Examiner, a video calling Ardern a "globalist puppet", and a meme calling mask wearers sheep.

Jacob Curran's X shares many anti-immigration posts from "Great Replacement" conspiracy theory promoter William McGimsey, anti-trans activist Corina Shields, Elliot Ikilei, Tommy Robinson, and NZ First. He called to deport academic Mohan Dutta and celebrated Benjamin Doyle's resignation.

Leao Tildsley was a New Conservatives candidate in 2020. She was an anti-mandate agitator and stood for DemocracyNZ in 2023. She is a supporter of Graham Phillips, the first person convicted of sabotage in NZ, for his attack on the electrical grid.

In Auckland, a large group is running under Westwards, led by Cr. Ken Turner. Ken is an RCR favourite, appearing six times. He also signed VFF's CouncilWatch NZ anti-WHO letter, opposing the signing of any pandemic treaties in the future. Ken appeared on NZ First candidate Erika Harvey's podcast

In a 22 interview with Liz Gunn, Hibiscus & Bays local board member Leanne Willis likened New Zealandβs Covid-19 response to Nazi Germany: βfor a liberal kind of party that she (Jacinda Ardern) was heading, that it was so draconian and just had all of these remnants of the Holocaust.β

Darag pushes pseudoscience, scaremongering about climate resilience actions, and pseudo-history that denigrates the place of Maori in New Zealand.
Coast People has three others on their ticket: Gary Brown, Gary George, and Leanne Willis.
/4
VFF Coordinator Darag Rennie is running under Coast People. Like Jackie Wheeler, Darag organised the Julian Batchelor Stop Co-Governance tour in Orewa. He believes we have been lied to "about diet, climate, covid, NZ history, racial and gender theory, overpopulation" to "divide and conquer."
/3
Pete Marshall stood with conspiracy-peddling Rock The Vote in '22. He posts to AK Liberation Project (Pete Mars), organises pop-ups for VFF and CouncilWatchNZ, and promotes NZ First.
He admits the 2nd COVID inquiry was to take out their political opponents, calling them a "band of evil dwarfs"

π¨ Auckland VFF coordinators running for council
Three COs are running for council in Auckland, two are on a larger ticket.
Pete Marshall is the only person standing under Concerned Ratepayers Herne Bay. Yes, another CR group.

The candidate who fronted the vigil:
01.10.2025 20:43 β π 1 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0There was a plan to take over ACT in 2022 that failed, then eyes were set on NZ First in early 2023. They didn't need to try.
01.10.2025 06:39 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Laurie has a candidate he is supporting for Napier District Council, Te Kira Lawrence, who appears to be a NZ First staffer. She's getting support from a bunch of NZ First candidates.
Thanks for coming down this rabbit warren. There is more to come. Next, we look to Auckland.

I bet you are wondering if there is any connection to Elizabeth Mundt and Upskilling for Local Government?
Elizabeth Mundt's (Eliza Lucy Hoss) has commented on posts that include some of these photos.
And another U4LG member has too, Laurie Turnbull, Napier NZ First candidate in 2023.
/12
Dave, who is stang for Mayor for a second time, is unapologetically anti-vax.
/11
David is a member of the pseudo-law adjacent group Challenging Councils, as is the man to the right of the above photo, David Christison. Dave is a NZ Loyal supporter turned NZ First type of guy. He's in this photo taken at a New Plymouth NZ First event with Christchurch Mayor Phil Mauger.

In some shocking news, it's the same players in RangitΔ«kei. David Yates (front) is running for council. You can see him with Charlotte Weber at a NZ First meeting. Behind her is VFF CO Greg Smith. Greg is an admin on a council-focused Facebook group called Bulls Locally.

Jackie attended the Occupation, and shares 15-minute city conspiracy theories and says it's the "elite Maori that are the problem." She'd vote to leave LGNZ, against improved cycleways and Maori wards.
OK, RangitΔ«kei, here we come.

Jackie booked the Stop Co-Governance Palmy stop for Julian Batchelor. The meeting was interrupted by a whistle blower. While she was ripped from the meeting, someone yelled "pull her pants down!" Jackie filmed.

Side Quest: Palmerston North candidate and VFF CO Jackie Wheeler also attends local committee meetings for NZ First. She had MP Andy Foster speak at her local VFF meeting.
Jackie held an anti-LGNZ rally in 2022.

Rob's social media is locked down but he follows several VFF coordinators from all over: Nelson, Temuka, and Jackie Wheeler in Palmerston North.
And there is Jason Bardell, who has been endorsed by Azian, and can be seen in the back row of this NZ First event.

And here is Charlotte helping Azian put up hoardings. Azian also attended the Levin local committee led by VFF coordinators, with Bill Arnold speaking to the crew.
Another candidate intertwined with NZ First is Rob Oscroft. See him pictured with Bill and Charlotte.
