Here’s the next step in my plan to rebuild and protect our health system:

#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.

#BREAKING Cervical screening will be free, with Labour's Medicard. Add that to free doctor's visits for every New Zealander, we're building a health system that keeps people healthy.

#BREAKING Christopher Luxon has broken yet another record: The number of Kiwis out of work has reached its highest number in 30 years.

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. 🪪🫡

#BREAKING: Labour will provide three free doctor’s visits a year for everyone, delivered via a brand new Medicard and funded by a targeted tax on property profits, excluding the family home.

#BREAKING: I’ve just announced a BOOST to our world-class gaming industry. More jobs, more innovation, and more Kiwi-made games on the world stage! 🗺️🎮🇳🇿

#BREAKING: Labour will launch the New Zealand Future Fund to create good, well-paid jobs and keep wealth and talent here at home. Our plan is about a future made in NZ.

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.

This morning, Christopher Luxon said New Zealanders should be proud of not recognising Palestine as a State. Out of touch and embarrassing.

Picture this: Eden Park and North Harbour Stadium, both full. That’s 73,400 people. That’s how many New Zealand citizens have left the country in just the past year under Christopher Luxon. It’s a clear vote of no confidence in Christopher Luxon and his National Government.
