Gareth Morgan, founder of the Opportunity Party, has called for the party to clearly define its position following internal disagreements. Morgan stated that the party needs to “firmly distinguish itself as being in the centre.”
Morgan made the comments during a recent interview, where he acknowledged that the party has experienced some internal tensions. He emphasized the importance of maintaining a clear political identity.
The Opportunity Party has faced criticism for its shifting positions, with some members suggesting it is moving further to the left. Morgan rejected these claims, stating that the party is not “sliding to the left” and remains committed to its core principles.
Morgan’s comments come after a period of internal debate within the party. Some members have expressed concerns about the party’s direction, while others argue that it should remain open to different perspectives.
This situation highlights the challenges faced by political parties in maintaining a consistent message. Morgan’s call for clarity reflects broader concerns about political alignment and public perception.
