Labour's Hidden Fee: $2263 Extra Tax for Kiwi Households
New Zealand households face an average of $2263 in additional tax every year under Labour's proposed policies, according to National Campaign Chair Simeon Brown. This 'hidden fee' is a result of Labour's plan to cover its $18.8 billion bill, which would be paid by Kiwi households through extra taxes.
National believes that Labour's policy would lead to increased debt and more taxes for New Zealanders. In contrast, the party promises to grow the economy, spend sensibly, and pay down debt without introducing new taxes.
