The RBNZ's rate cut proves that the government’s economic policy is working. Since refocusing the central bank and ending wasteful spending that overheated the economy, inflation has remained within the target bracket for four consecutive quarters. The resulting rate cut allows hard-working families to save over NZ$400 every two weeks on their mortgages.
The rate cuts expose the failed leadership and economic mismanagement of the Luxon government. The economy is now in crisis, with GDP shrinking, record numbers of businesses closing and Kiwis fleeing abroad. The prime minister’s only "plan" is to bank on rising property prices and foreign investment, while wages flatline and public services crumble.
