Socialist Unity Party
Sir, — As a person you would define as a worker I wish to put the following questions to the Socialist Unity Party, (if it has the intestinal fortitude to answer them). Why does it persecute the workers of this country by encouraging the industrial disruption which is slowly bankrupting this country and the workers with it? It says it aims to improve the lot of the workers .of this country; why then does it not contest all electorial seats to give the workers a chance to elect the S.U.P. as the Government? The majority of the New Zealanders voted for National at the last elections, why then does the party insist on trying to destroy the authority of the Government which was elected by the majority of the workers? If the S.U.P. became the Government would we still have to hold General Elections? — Yours, etc.,
D. F. OAKLEY. August 19, 1976.
