After a year without policy, Te Pāti Māori delivers a tax grab

Responding to Te Pāti Māori’s newly released tax policy, Taxpayers’ Union spokesperson Tory Relf said:

“Te Pāti Māori has spent most of the year seemingly allergic to policy, and after all that time this is what they have come up with: five new taxes.

“Apparently one or two new taxes were not ambitious enough. Te Pāti Māori wants to tax income, wealth, businesses and investment harder, then use the proceeds to fund an even bigger state.

“After months of keeping voters waiting, Te Pāti Māori has finally shown its hand. Unfortunately, it is reaching straight for taxpayers’ wallets.”
