Fight Back Together
Maranga Ake

May Day is a time to commemorate both the struggles and gains made by workers and the labour movement. Based on the success of our nationwide hui on the 23rd of October, we are again hosting hui across the country on May Day to fight back against the Government’s ongoing attacks on workers’ rights.

When working people unite and fight back against anti-worker policies, we create change and transform society for the better.

When we fight back together, we win.  

Last year, we hosted 12 events across the motu. This year, we will make a bigger impact.

Venues:

We’ll add the locations on this page and in our socials when new venues are confirmed.

Why does this matter?

This is the most anti-worker government that we’ve seen in decades, attacking our rights day after day and trying to divide us. But we won’t let them get away with it. We must fight back.  

• The coalition government has shown they are in the pockets of the rich, putting corporate interests over the interests of working people.  
• Through standing together and mobilising, we can demonstrate our power and ensure that this one-term government loses its legitimacy. 
• When our backs are against a wall, we fight back. And when we fight, we win. 

Attacks on working people come on top of the relentless and ongoing attacks on Te Tiriti o Waitangi and Māori rights. The coalition is trying to divide us and are sowing the seeds of division. 

Don’t let the buggers get you down! Join us across the motu on May Day to take a stand against the coalition.
