You are right. Labour and National are both neoliberal parties. Labour just seems to make life a bit less painful for people while still refusing to make any meaningful changes. I don’t want three free doctor visits. I want nurses to be paid fairly. I want affordable housing. I want a system that taxes unproductive stuff (land banking) and reduce taxes on productive stuff (income). Labour will never actually do it.
Opportunity says they are into “evidence-based policies” instead of “the same old thing that got us into this mess”. So, they support things that are sensible instead of just left or right. Opportunity and the Greens are the only ones putting forward tax policies that will fix the crappy “nobody can afford anything” situation we’ve gotten into after the whole Rogernomics thing.

Yeah I’m just hoping they swing more voters from national and labour as opposed to green… 😅
I’d be happy if the get in, provide stability and a clear long term vision.
Being able to work with both national and labour, which will be in power around half the time each, is important.
If they take sine green votes to do it, that it the voters speaking.
Mostly I want them to get more votes than act, and thus more bargaining power.
