The Pike River protesters aren't backing down any time soon, and they'll be sending that message straight to the new Prime Minister today.

A handful of representatives will present a new re-entry plan at 12.30pm outside Parliament.

It has been developed by the Vice Chair of the United Nations Experts on Coal Mine Methane and the former UK Principal Mines Inspector, as well as being endorsed by three other international experts.

Protester Hayden Ferguson said the tables turned this week after they gained control of the access road.

"It's a big step for the little guys who have actually got one over the big giant of Solid Energy, and hopefully this is another step into getting into what everyone wants and that's that drift recovered."

Ferguson said the Government must stop denying the evidence for re-entry.

He said his former workmates deserve better than to be left in the mine.

"It's a brotherhood that's never been rivaled in any other job Iv' e had previous or since. We all look out for each other."

Supporter Bing Donaldson said they've been boosted by new control over the access road and a record crowd of over 200 people at the mine this week, and a strong public backing.

"It's been bit overwhelming actually the support from around the country as well, it's really gained momentum over the last month now."
