Move over Grey Power, here comes Young New Zealand First. The youth wing of the party not only won over its leader at the weekend's conference, but the majority of the membership too. Young New Zealand First came to life officially only in the last five years but it's presence has continued to grow at the annual gathering of party members. This year in Christchurch they won big on what would normally be a no-go area: drugs. RNZ's political reporter Jo Moir was there.
