For all the shit National gave Labour for borrowing, National are borrowing MORE and they are borrowing for TAX CUTS!! At least Labour borrowed to save us from Covid, National are borrowing for fucking tax cuts you stupid sleepy Hobbits! We are robbing Hone to pay Peter and Paul and John! In-work tax credit rise, independent earner tax credit boost and tax cuts – explicitly excludes the poorest NZers: beneficiaries. This is a budget whose tax cuts give twice as much to the PM than to minimum wage workers, it has $2.9bn in tax cuts for landlords, and excludes many poor families from many initiatives!
