National can’t argue with the facts: under their watch the economy has shrunk, and the cost of living is worse for New Zealanders.

Labour's fiscal strategy will manage the books carefully, so families can get ahead.

We’ll return to surplus, bring debt down and make sure every dollar delivers. But we won’t do it by cutting the things people rely on. We’ll keep investing in jobs, public services and growth.

Responsible with your money. Ambitious for New Zealand's future.

National cuts. Labour invests.

OUR VOICE IS SHOWING UP IN THE HEADLINES.

Kia ora whānau, from your Sydney branch of NZ Labour:
Big, positive news: Māori voter enrolment for the 2026 General Election has surged, and it’s making headlines back home.

📊 565,000+ people of Māori descent are now enrolled

📊 309,600+ (55%) are on the Māori roll
📊 60,000+ enrolled, updated, or switched rolls in just the last few months, well above 2023 levels

Reporting on the surge is calling out something special: Māori living overseas, across Australia, the UK, Europe and Asia, are enrolling in growing numbers. That’s us. Whānau here in Sydney are part of the story making news in Aotearoa right now.
✅ Not enrolled? You can enrol and choose your roll until 25 October.
✅ Election day: 7 November 2026.

National Party is coming apart at the seams

Chris Penk has decided not to seek re-election in November, hours after the prime minister stripped him of his portfolios for his role in a leadership challenge.
