WELLINGTON: New Zealand’s ruling party, the Labour Party, unveiled its 2023 party list on Monday which gears up for the 2023 general election in October.
The new party list shows the Labour Party is strengthening its existing team and focussing on the bread-and-butter issues that matter most to New Zealanders, said the party’s president Jill Day, according to Xinhua.
“This election is about who best has New Zealanders’ backs in tough times,” Day said in a statement of the Labour Party, citing opportunities ahead such as the decreasing rate of inflation and the record low unemployment.
Labour’s plan is to cut inflation, bring down the cost of living, keep people and communities safe, and invest in education, health, and housing, she said. – BERNAMA-XINHUA
