“No Sanctions, No Vote”: New Zealand’s Free Palestine Party Urges Voters to Back Sanctions on Israel
October 29, 2026
In a highly unusual electoral move, New Zealand’s newly registered Free Palestine Party is launching a direct campaign telling Kiwi voters not to give them their party vote.
Instead, they are urging the public to strategically cast their ballots for established parties that have officially committed to placing comprehensive sanctions on Israel.
️ The Core Strategy: Speaking ahead of the general election, party representatives are pushing a strict “no sanctions, no vote” policy. They argue that voters must demand a complete end to trade and investment, the expulsion of the Israeli ambassador, and an absolute ban on military personnel entering Aotearoa.
️ The Political Landscape: The party highlights that the Green Party, Te Pāti Māori, and Labour have formally acknowledged the actions in Gaza as genocide and pledged to pursue sanctions if elected. Meanwhile, they target the National-ACT-NZ First coalition government, accusing them of complicity by blocking sanction bills and ignoring local production of dual-use components.
⚖️ The Ultimate Goal: The movement is calling for intense international diplomatic pressure to dismantle current structures and ensure equal, universal human rights for everyone living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
Is strategic voting the most effective way to shift New Zealand’s foreign policy? Let us know your thoughts below.

Will: My name is. Will, I’m from the Free Palestine Party that’s been set up because the current government refuses to sanction Israel for genocide. The National Party, New Zealand First, the Act party and the Opportunity Party will not sanction Israel. They’re happy to give Israel total impunity as they slaughter tens of thousands of Palestinian women and children. Don’t vote for racism oppression. Don’t vote for complicity in genocide. Please do not vote for National Act, New Zealand First or the Opportunity Party. Instead, turn to Te Pati Maori, the Greens and Labor for your vote. Te Pati Maori has the best policy for sanctioning Israel, but they don’t want your party to vote. So for your party vote, the option is between labor and the Greens. When you go into the polling booth, remember no sanctions, no vote.
