Article 24
Article 24.
It shall be the special duty of members to discountenance any approach toward sectionalism or localism, and to remember that they are New Zealanders, to know no North, no South, no East, no West, but New Zealand and its dependencies as a whole, and of the Party so to act—that it may be seen and felt that we have the good of the whole country at heart, trusting that our example may be followed in the various centres of population, and that through the National Patriotic Party the voice of the people may assert itself as the governing power.
