The Christian-based Kiwi Party no longer exists.

The Electoral Commission has cancelled its registration at the party's request.

It was formed after the 2005 election by former United Future MPs who lost their seats, and it did not win any back in 2008.

Before last November's election leader Larry Baldock said the party was not putting up any candidates.

He said the newly formed Conservative Party had many similar policies and Kiwi Party members wanted to work with it.

The Conservative Party won 2.6 percent of the party vote but did not get any seats.

Christian values arent represented by any right wing party Mike. Money is what is represented by right wing parties.. money and corporations.

No real follower who understands what Jesus Christ was all about would choose The Conservative Party to represent them, while its joined at the hip with far right ideology.
