Wouldn't it be good to implement the bed night visitor levy that Auckland is asking for instead of this? That way we get a sustainable source of funding for events and tourism...

We need a Government focused on building the future.
Since National took office, 18,000 people have lost their jobs in construction, with many heading overseas to find work.
Labour will bring certainty, so people can keep their jobs and build a future in New Zealand.

Walking & cycling before this govt came in was 4% of our transport budget.
Now itβs 1.5%.
Under the Govtβs plan it wouldβve taken us 100βs of years to renew our footpaths. We put $500m additional in to increase footpath funding without govt subsidies.
Red herring from the PM!
