If Labour revived its 2023 wealth tax ($10.99b in today’s prices) and funnelled every dollar into pay equity, they’d still be $2b short, and have nothing left for other priorities.

Hipkins isn’t funding the full pay equity - we can’t afford it.

Example: in 2017 Labour had an election promise to give pay equity for ECE teachers to Primary pay. 6 years later, when they were kicked out, they still hadn’t achieved it 🤯

Labour - the party of empty promises and ideology over reality.
 
Seems like sensible priorities from the govt. lots of extra funding for the key areas that matter to NZ (welfare, health, education, environment, law and order). Doing the basics well.

So much for the lefts attack lines of austerity and the cutting everything… well done coalition!
Who would have thought that a centre-right would release a budget that has higher environmental spend than the previous Labour-greens government
