PM must ask Greg O’Connor for a please explain & apology over his reported shameful comments implying that because a student was from a corrupt country she was asking for a corrupt deal to bend the rules, so she could access a student loan. More evidence of an anti-migrant gvt

Today I have announced that National has ruled out coming to any arrangement with Te Pāti Māori in forming a National-led government after the 2023 election. We believe New Zealand is one country with one standard of citizenship, meaning one person, one vote.

Today’s OCR increase and new food price data show the cost of living crisis is getting worse. Wage growth is not keeping up with rapidly rising prices meaning Kiwis are going backwards under Labour, with the cost of living crisis set to bite deeper.

Make no mistake, National opposes the Three Waters Agenda, and if elected in 2023, we will repeal and replace this broken model.

Astonishing that this didn’t merit a press release from government. Just dumped out onto the MIQ website yesterday. Good move.

In almost every developed country rapid Covid tests are widely available from pharmacies, supermarkets, or even vending machines. New Zealand is way behind. https://t.co/hGKDrGRSIy

Today’s minimum wage increase is an admission by Labour that New Zealand has a cost of living crisis. While many are being hurt & Labour now acknowledges this, tragically, they still don’t know what to do. New Zealand needs a growth & productivity plan & to rein in govt spending.

Government agency uses taxpayer $$$ to promote Labour candidate. They know what they’re doing is wrong but do it anyway covering up as they go. The rot runs deep.
Revealed: Kāinga Ora hid the fact it was using a Labour candidate in taxpayer-funded advertising
