Groundswell co-founders Bryce McKenzie and Laurie Paterson will speak to the media following the nationwide protest against the Government's livestock emissions plan.

Last week, a consultation document was released to the public proposing GST-registered farmers and growers who meet certain livestock and fertiliser use thresholds will have to pay levies on emissions from 2025.

The protest, called 'We're not going to take it' began on Thursday morning and saw utes, tractors and trucks descend on New Zealand towns and cities.
