Yup. All my chemo nurses in Te Whanganui a Tara were either South Asian or Canadian.

This. My mum has just gone into aged care and I feel like I should hand out flyers to the residents telling them if they vote for any of the coalition parties (esp NZF) they might as well say goodbye to all the amazing carers now.

Does anyone know if it's possible to track down who is paying for a specific billboard? This billboard on Murphy Street outside Thorndon New World exactly matches National Party content but has no authorisation statement and no owner other than "concerned citizens". I would like to do Research.
A billboard.

Top says "Wake Up New Zealand".

Left has a picture of Chris Hipkins and says "9 New Taxes".

Right has a picture Christoper Luxon and says "No New Taxes".

Bottom says "Sponsored By Concerned Citizens".

It’s infuriating! Our media reports politics like it’s a cage fight on the White House lawn and they’re disappointed when noone leaves on a stretcher. Nothing in their analysis probes what’s at stake for real people or holds the politicians to account for their lies. We are so underserved.

#nzpol What's in it for workers this election? Over the coming week, we'll be releasing a set of 13 policy scorecards for working people, so that you know where parties stand this election year. See how the parties stack up on Fair Pay Agreements, contractor law, and personal grievances:
NZCTU Policy Scorecards for Working People. Question: “Will you support higher wages by restoring Fair Pay Agreements in the first 100 days?” Results: Labour - Yes; National - No; ACT - No; Green - Yes; Te Pāti Māori - Yes; New Zealand First - No; Alliance - Yes; Opportunities Party - No. Green tick indicates Yes, red cross indicates No. Footer notes that National and ACT declined to answer questions on industrial policy, so scores reflect public statements and legislative history. Authorised by New Zealand Council of Trade Unions - Te Kauae Kaimahi. More information: union.org.nz/election-scorecards-26.NZCTU policy scorecard titled “Policy Scorecards for Working People.” Question: “Will you protect workers by ending the mislabelling of employees as contractors?*” with a note: “*by reversing the Employment Relations Amendment Act 2026 changes.” Results: Labour: Yes; National: No; ACT: No; Green: Yes; New Zealand First: No; Alliance: Yes; Opportunity Party (TOP): No policy. Green tick indicates Yes, red cross indicates No. Footer notes that National and ACT declined to answer questions on industrial policy, so scores reflect public statements and legislative history. Authorised by New Zealand Council of Trade Unions - Te Kauae Kaimahi. More information: union.org.nz/election-scorecards-26.
