Hundreds of Northlanders are expected to protest on tractors, utes and more next week as part of a simultaneous "howl of protest" in more than 40 centres across the country.
Farmers, tradies, rural businesses and more will on July 16 take to the streets of Whangārei, Kaitaia, Kerikeri and Dargaville against what they say are an increasing number of government policies interfering with their lives.
Kerikeri protest coordinator Kate Lowe said rural people were sick of the increasing number of government policies impacting their lives.
These included Significant Natural Areas (SNAs) on private land, national policy statements on freshwater and biodiversity management, three waters and the ute tax.
