Farmers helped New Zealand get through COVID-19 and today their protests around the country demonstrate how out of touch the Government is with rural New Zealand.
We’ve had unprecedented support for our ‘Demand the Debate’ campaign, and today we’ve released a new video highlighting the effect the Government’s Ute Tax will have on the rural sector.
Watch and share our our new video here.
Labour’s Ute Tax unfairly penalises farmers, tradies and others who rely upon vehicles for which there is no electric alternative.
Labour never campaigned on the Car Tax and in fact was categorical in ruling out any new taxes. Yet they’re pushing it through anyway.
The rural sector along with almost every New Zealander is being hit in the back-pocket through new taxes, rent increases and cost on businesses.
Today’s video uses humour to draw attention to a situation that is not funny for so many Kiwis.
The stories we’ve received from New Zealanders since our campaign started five days ago build a picture of people feeling that they are being left out and who want the debate.

Today the rural sector stands up and drives their tractors and utes through our towns and cities to send a clear signal to Wellington.
The Government’s Parliamentary majority is not a mandate for Labour to promote their ideological wish list. New Zealanders deserve a say on their country’s future and together we must demand the debate.
