The smartest thing Hipkins can say in response to media questions regarding #NZGreens excellent tax policy is #NZLabour has its own tax policy which differs from the Green’s tax policy. It’s up to the #NZPol voters to decide in the upcoming election which policy they support.

@janef0421

That tells you just how threatened the #NZPol ruling class and their media shills are by the #NZGreens most excellent tax policy.

So I decided to tune in to #RNZ to listen to what they reported on #NZGreens fantastic tax policy but all I learned about it is David Seymour doesn’t like it.
I’m not sure what’s going on with RNZ but their prejudice is appalling.

Grrrr

Having finally watched all of this #NZGreens tax policy announcement and press conference I am truly blown away by both Chlöe Swarbrick and Marama Davidson's korero and mana in delivering this policy.

I was feeling lot's of #Mamdani vibes.

Hell, I don't care if they're both appointed #NZPol Prime Minister by voters in 2026. 💚 💚

In response to #RNZ quickly ensuring the #AtlasNetwork Act Party's criticism of #NZGreens tax policy released today was rushed out I am pleased they have now got around to releasing the Greens actually announcing their #NZPol tax policy that Seymour was criticising.

Stuff seem to have broken the Greens' embargo on this document and it's full of good stuff.

NZ GREENS TAX POLICY

* 2.5% tax on net assets of super-rich above $10 million.

* Return corporate tax rate to 33% for the 0.7 percent biggest corporations, like the supermarket duopoly, energy companies, and banks.

* Introduce Bank Levy of 0.06% on the liabilities of the four big banks, like Australia has.

* Make big tech companies pay their fair share by enforcing the 5% withholding tax rate on the profits they send offshore.

* Reverse Luxon’s landlord tax cuts and the changes to the brightline tests.

That last point is a doozy that'll have National's blue-rinse brigade fuming. Read more in the Greens' PDF.
