National Party campaign opening at Founders Theatre in Hamilton. Interview with Robert Muldoon at the beach and beach house. Muldoon enters the theatre to a standing ovation and proceeds to give an address in which he attacks the Labour Party’s policies, track record and their campaign for a ‘New Society’. He states the National Party has a new economic formula to correct the “failures” of the Labour Party. Addresses issues of housing, unemployment and national debt. Introduces new electoral candidates, including Marilyn Warring who, he states, is “the woman who is going to make her mark in New Zealand politics.”
