No Commercial Airport at Whenuapai Airbase logo
The No Commercial Airport at Whenuapai Airbase Party is a local party which opposes the transformation of Auckland's Whenuapai airbase into a commercial airport. The party leader is Toby Hutton, a 19-year-old Browns Bay apprentice[1].
The party is inspired by the success of the Whenuapai Airbase Action Group (Waag) in turning the fate of the airbase into a political issue during the 2007 local body elections. However, it is not connected with any existing group. It plans to contest the East Coast Bays electorate during the 2008 election[2].
The party has applied to register a logo with the Electoral Commission on 21 April 2008[3]. It has not yet applied for registration, and so cannot contest the party list.
