Labour’s Chris Hipkins unveils their fuel tax pledge — no hikes for the term if they win — directly challenging National’s plan to start increasing taxes in 2028. National warns it’ll cost $4.6 billion, but Hipkins dismisses those figures as overly long-term and vague. With the cost of living crisis raging, Labour vows not to burden households further with fuel price rises, hinting they may trim spending or borrow to balance the books. Both parties will reveal full fiscal plans on September 29th, leaving voters to wait and see which numbers hold up when the official economic update drops.
