Can this NZ election help stop Kiwis leaving for Australia? | ABC NEWS
In 2023, a centre-right coalition swept into power in New Zealand promising to get the country “back on track”.
Three years later unemployment is at an 11-year high, tens of thousands have left for Australia and Māori and Pacific communities say they’ve been hit hardest.
The government says its cuts and fast-tracked projects will drive growth, while the opposition says working families are paying the price. New Zealand heads to the polls on November 7.
