National Vows No New Taxes in November Election Bid

The National Party has pledged to impose no new taxes if re-elected on November 7. The party believes that hard work should be rewarded, and its promise of no new taxes reflects its disciplined economic management. According to the party, this approach will allow Kiwis to keep more of what they earn, giving them more choices about how to use their money.

National's plan is centered around growing the economy, creating jobs, lifting wages, and keeping taxes low. The party claims that its responsible economic management has set the economy up for growth, with 220,000 new jobs on the way and wages increasing faster than prices. This contrasts sharply with Labour's proposed spending promises, which would require at least 9 new taxes to fund.

The National Party argues that Labour's plan will worsen Kiwis' cost of living and make a mess of the economy again. The party believes that its no-new-taxes approach is the better choice for New Zealanders, who will be able to keep more of their hard-earned money if National is re-elected.
