The Green Party kicked off April by announcing a hip-hop tour of New Zealand universities. The tour is designed to raise awareness of environmental and social justice issues among students in a cool way that youths will totally dig.
Green MP and Party youth spokesman Gareth Hughes said in a press release that “we are always keen to find new ways to reach out to people not involved in politics and we think a hip hop tour is a great way to connect with a younger audience”.
The tour by the group, who call themselves Massive Salad, will involve a slew of Green MPs, most of whom have adopted cool rap names in order to ingratiate themselves with the “Guns and Hoes (of either gender)” obsessed generation of B Comm students that constitute the majority of university
students in this godforsaken country.
Surely the standout effort among the MPs is Hughes moniker, “MC G-Roar”. The “G” is understood to refer to Hughes’ first name (Gareth). Inventive.
The tour kicked off at Victoria University on April 1. It is unclear when Massive Salad plan to play the Union in Dunedin.
Green Party plays April Fools’ joke on media. Critic fooled.
