The Government's own economic update confirms what Kiwis already know: that Christopher Luxon and Nicola Willis are making things worse. Labour will build a New Zealand that works for everyone - where everyone who works hard can get ahead.

New data released today shows Kiwis are continuing to give up and head abroad in a clear vote of no confidence in Christopher Luxon. My plan will give people and our children a reason to stay in New Zealand: jobs, opportunity, and wealth that is made here and stays here.

#BREAKING: Labour has a plan to make it cheaper, easier, and faster to see a doctor. Today I announced the next step — to support our doctors to set up in the community or expand the practices we already have.

Here’s what is exempt from our simple, targeted capital gains tax: the family home, farms, inheritances, KiwiSaver, shares, businesses, and personal items. That’s what you need to know for your Thursday.

Christopher Luxon has admitted he's looking at selling off our assets. Labour will protect what we own and keep our assets in Kiwi hands.

Labour's plan for New Zealand is taking shape: 🤝 A Future Fund that backs our people and businesses. 🧑⚕️ Three free doctor's visits a year for every Kiwi. 💜 Free cervical screening. We'll be a Government that puts people first.

Mōrena to all New Zealanders who, under Labour, will receive three free doctor’s visits a year. And all you’ll need is your Medicard — not your credit card. 🪪🫡

Mōrena to everyone except Christopher Luxon who has taken a wrecking ball to the construction sector — with 20,000 job cuts. Real jobs that families depend on.

The attack on Winston Peters home today was totally unacceptable. MPs homes are not the place to protest. No matter the cause, political violence is never ok and should be condemned. Free speech is healthy in a democracy, political violence is not.

Nigel Latta was a Kiwi icon and legend. I’m saddened to hear of his passing and my thoughts go out to his wife Natalie and their children. He was a regular on TV screens and in households right around the country — such pragmatism, grace and personability. He will be missed.

Mōrena to everyone except Christopher Luxon who this morning decided to side with fossil fuel companies instead of lowering your power bills. Weak and out of touch.
