	Green Party of Aotearoa New Zealand People: Nandor Tanczos (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Nandor recalls the restrictive atmosphere of Hungarian cities - and the fl-market that lubricated the wheels of the communist economy.
		Nandor took notice; he had been sympathetic to the Green Party of Aotearoa NZ for a long time, and this was heartening proof that involvement in representative politics did not preclude involvement in direct action politics.
		Nandor is someone who represents their voice in Parliament, someone who asks the questions they want asked, someone who makes sense of the statement that 'everything you do is political'.

		MP Nandor Tanczos’ Misuse of Drugs (Cannabis Infringement) Amendment Bill, if passed through parliament, will be the first step in the Green Party’s push to have cannabis legalised.
		Tanczos, on national television, admitted to being a once a month cannabis user, an admission of possession of cannabis, an offence under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1975.
		One questions whether Tanczos is a fit and proper person to be in parliament, given that by his own admission, he regularly commits a criminal offence.

	Closed Minds Are A Threat To The Greater Crop Of Knowledge
		Party members, such as co-leader Rod Donald and MP Nandor Tanczos, flatly refused to accept the $6 million, 1200-page commission report and gave unequivocal support to militant greens planning "non-violent direct action" against test crops.
		The weekend raid in Christchurch is the result of such encouragement to youthful zealots, as interested in a bit of a thrill as they might be committed to Green principles.
		Despite the honesty and colour that Mr Tanczos adds to the political scene, his brand of environmental fundamentalism is diametrically opposed to the knowledge direction in which New Zealand should be headed.

	Rampant bureaucracy threatens to suffocate New Zealand hemp
		NEW ZEALAND — Green MP Nandor Tanczos declared today that Medsafe had no business in New Zealand’s hemp industry and that their proposed regulations threatened to suffocate a promising business opportunity for New Zealand farmers.
		Nandor, whose industrial hemp private member’s bill was dropped by the Primary Production select committee in August last year, said Medsafe’s threat to the hemp industry was a case of rampant bureaucracy that would have been averted if his bill was allowed to proceed.
		Nandor said that the problem arose because the Government had sacrificed a Green initiative to promote the hemp industry in order to take the credit itself.

	A Servant's Thoughts: Nandor Tanczos for Prime Minister
		I propose a course of action (taking a leaf from the book of Thailand) where the military steps in, takes control and declares martial law removing the chance for Labour or National to govern our country with their petty gutter politics and enstates Nandor Tanczos as Prime Minister.
		Because he's the only politician I have seen openly declare our governing system to be exactly what it is, a morally bankrupt, corrupt, evil system.
		Nandor just doesnt cut the mustard for me. I don't think that some one who smokes dope would be able to get that much credibility on the world stage to promote NZ's causes yet alone get the world to unite to fight world poverty or other serious problems that we have.
