Alison Pavlovich, a distinguished legal scholar, taxation expert, and grandmother, has officially announced her candidacy for the New Zealand Outdoors and Freedom Party (NZOFP).

Campaigning on a platform of human-centred governance, Pavlovich aims to rebalance the scales between corporate influence and the well-being of ordinary New Zealanders.

With over 30 years of experience spanning international business, academia, and community service, Pavlovich brings a unique “insider-outsider” perspective to the political arena. Holding degrees in commerce and law, including a PhD in law, she is prepared to apply a skeptical, technical lens to government decision-making.

Restoring balance to governance

Pavlovich argues that while globalization has provided benefits, the pendulum has swung too far toward corporate interests.

“It is time to bring ordinary New Zealanders back into the forefront of decisions across every sphere of government,” says Pavlovich. “Corporate influence is powerful, and we need more balance in favour of people and our environment. Because I have worked in the corporate sector, I speak their language. I can readily distinguish between what is truly beneficial and what is sub-optimal for our citizens.”

A breadth of experience

Beyond her technical expertise in taxation and human rights, Pavlovich emphasizes that her real-world roles as a mother and grandmother inform her vision for the country. Having lived in both urban and rural settings, she understands the diverse challenges facing New Zealand families today.

Pavlovich’s vision for New Zealand includes:

  • Human Dignity First: Prioritising people over bureaucratic or corporate agendas.
  • Economic Sovereignty: Building a thriving economy based on the exchange of real goods and services while keeping wealth onshore.
  • Environmental Stewardship: Ensuring New Zealanders enjoy healthy lives in a clean, protected environment.
  • Expert Oversight: Using her legal and financial background to provide rigorous scrutiny of government policy.



“Ideologically, I want an economy that supports New Zealanders to conduct business with each other in a way that prioritises human dignity above all else,” Pavlovich says. “We can do much better than we are doing now. My aspiration is to support a thriving society where our environment is protected and our wealth stays here.”

Alison will run as a list and electorate candidate for Wellington Central. More information about NZOFP can be found on their website.

  1. Sounds great but can we just get all these smaller parties together to form a ONE Nation party? End globalism and tribalism?

    • Nope. Sadly not. They all have egos bigger than Eden Park preventing them. Most smaller-party supporters hoped for this in ’23. I guess that’s why so many joined NZFirst to see change from within. A somewhat easier and successful path, it would seem.

      • Yeah, a whole bunch of people got fooled with that thinking. They voted for the status quo safety net – Winston, who snaffled up the baubles.

        What change from within are you talking about?

      • We tried that last time and it didn’t work. Unlike all the new parties that pop up every election. We have been registered for 11 years and all of those years we do the work. We are there as much as we can be .. check out or website go to our Actions page and look at our submissions to parliament. We work all year on pushing back on the narratives, not just at election time .

    • If it sounds good to enough people, they get their votes.
      I personally prefer NZOFP to run seperately to make their policies front and centre,not a mixture of differing policies. That can come in negotiations afterwards.

      • Correct we are running on our own this time . We won’t make the same mistake again and we have some GREAT candidates lining up .. Check out Sue and Alison at the Select committee hearing yesterday. We are doing the work and we will work with whoever we have to, to push what we believe in for the people , for freedom of choice and for the environment

        • Does Alison Pavlovich agree with New Zealand Loyal’s Tax Policy?
          Will she be able to think ‘outside the (Masonic) square and work with the NZ Loyal Party?
          https://nzloyal.com/?s=tax
          I agree with Anonymous @ 7:31 PM above, but the egos and those under Zio-Globalist control won’t have any of that!
          Nevertheless, my vote in November 2026 will go to the NZ Loyal Party, knowing that they could work closely with the NZ O&FP.

          • You would have to ask her that question she’s is the tax expert.
            My vote of course is with NZOFP … we will work with whoever, if we were to get into power and ask legitimate hard questions, co-operation is what is needed to work with people. However our work is all year round regardless if we are in parliament . Sue and Alison have just been on the spoken before the select committee on the Telecommunications and other Bill. You can see their presentation here https://nzofp.co.nz/submissions-to-parliament and too my knowledge there are no freemasons in our party?

    • Yes exactly. Too many chiefs and not enough Indians. They do indeed need to come together or they wont meet the undemocratic 5% threshold, imposed by the shifty globalist parties, who want to retain an unjust stranglehold on NZ politics.

  2. The rat teeth, vestigial lips, cheek pouches, slightly slanted eyes and the nose tell me everything that I need to know about her.
