  • The coalition Government dived in quickly to reverse previous Labour policy and pushed numerous bills through Parliament to meet quarterly deadlines and targets -with a mixed response from voters around some policies.

The article from the New Zealand Herald provides a comprehensive overview of the tumultuous year in New Zealand politics, highlighting several key events and issues. It discusses the significant policy shifts under Prime Minister Chris Hipkins, who took over from Jacinda Ardern, focusing on economic recovery, cost of living, and crime. The piece also covers the internal strife within the Auckland Council, which has been described as being in disarray due to leadership changes and budget disputes. Additionally, it recounts the historic hīkoi (march) to Parliament, where thousands marched in support of co-governance and against policies seen as detrimental to Māori interests. The article reflects on the political atmosphere, mentioning the public's growing frustration with government decisions, the impact of these policies on everyday New Zealanders, and the looming general election, setting the stage for a potentially transformative political landscape.
