National launched an absolute failure of a tax plan this week amid a lull in political news as parliament had it’s final session before the election and the major parties prepared for a weekend launching their campaigns.

Description
This week we discuss ACT party candidate troubles and the marginal shift in media coverage of right-wing parties. We dip into some policy critique as ACT and National seek to cash in on crime rhetoric with increasingly incoherent announcements. And why isn’t Labour taking advantage of the current vacuum to offer anything to voters?

Description
It’s been a busy and horrible week in NZ politics and 1/200 has tried to cover as much as possible without losing it. We talk about the parties’ tax plans, the lack of sufficient policy from the big two, and the removal of covid mandates. The second half of the cast descends into rant against right-wing parties (predominantly NZ First and ACT) choosing to go after the extremist vote and the NZ media’s reluctance to challenge them about it.
