The leaders of the Internet Mana alliance put on a united front on their latest road trip meeting, reinforcing their commitment to eliminating poverty.

If everything went smooth, you'd say what a boring bunch of people, they may as well be National Party MPs.
But at a meeting in Otara, South Auckland, last night attended by about 150 people, Mr Harawira and Internet Party leader Laila Harré tried to put speculation of a spilt to bed.
“Of course there are tensions,” Mr Harawira said.
“How do you put Annette Sykes in a room with Laila Harré and John Minto and Hone Harawira, and not have tension? If everything went smooth, you'd say what a boring bunch of people, they may as well be National Party MPs.”
