National Talks About Responsibility, Their Actions Are The OppositeWhile the National Party talks about fiscal responsibility, their actions continue to heap more costs and produce less benefits for New Zealanders, says the Green Party. Reducing the Government’s debt and expenditure through merciless cuts only increases New Zealanders’ debt and cost of living.” “Luxon’s cuts so far have resulted in higher prescription fees, higher public transport costs, higher road user charges, higher rates bills and a higher cost of living. “New Zealanders deserve a Government that takes real responsibility, and invests to increase our prosperity, sustainability and productivity." The Greens have the plan and will take on the responsibility to do it,” says Swarbrick.
