Topic: Future New Zealand (Dunne)

	United Future New Zealand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		United Future was formed from the merger of centrist party United New Zealand and Christian-dominated conservative Future New Zealand to contest the 2002 election.
		Future New Zealand, which was not represented in parliament, was a "secularised" evolution of the Christian Democrats, following the same basic principles as the Christian Democrats, but abandoning the explicit religious connection.
		Most of United Future's 2002 MPs were elected in an astonishing last-week election turn-around (popularly attributed to a graphic "support worm" displayed during one televised debate) that saw votes lost by both the Labour and the Green parties, who were engaged in a public squabble over genetic engineering.

		The New Zealand monarchy has been distinct from the British monarchy since the New Zealand Royal Titles Act of 1953, and all Elizabeth II's official business in New Zealand is conducted in the name of the Queen of New Zealand, not the Queen of the United Kingdom.

		New Zealand is a unitary state rather than a federation — regions are created by the authority of the central government, rather than the central government being created by the authority of the regions.

		In our recent weeks of campaigning across the country, we have been confronted by concerned Christians and others with the apparent paradox that we, as committed Christians, have been seen to be supporting a Labour-led Government that has rammed through damaging social engineering legislation such as the prostitution reform law and the civil unions law.
		The result could be a Labour-Green coalition, a nightmare scenario for morally conservative voters, or a National-New Zealand First coalition, some of whose members have already voted in favour of the prostitution and civil union legislation.
		One final point: United Future has consistently said that after the election, when government-forming talks begin, we will first talk to the party with the largest number of Parliamentary seats.
