The Taxpayers’ Union (TPU) has launched a campaign targeting Finance Minister Nicola Willis and calling out what it says is the government’s “growing habit of sugar-coating fiscal truths”.
The organisation released packaged fudge from the ‘Nicola Fudge Co.’, branded with an image of Willis with the slogan, ‘A treat today – A tax tomorrow’.
One union is describing the fudge and debate as a “shameless right-wing stunt”.
TPU chairperson Ruth Richardson said Prime Minister Christopher Luxon had condemned the previous government’s ‘sugar-rush economics’, but that this government had “reached for the same lolly jar”.
