Voted with Amanda in Beachlands to keep growing our economy, being tough on crime, teaching our kids the basics brilliantly, and most importantly, no new taxes, so you and your family can get ahead.
Party Vote National today.
Right now, the future of New Zealand is in your hands. Voting is now open.
Before the last election inflation hit 7.3%, debt soared, crime exploded and education results were in decline.
And now, three years later, our economy is growing faster than Australia and the UK, inflation is down, kids are back in school learning the basics, and there are fewer victims of crime.
The choice this election is clear: keep going with Nationalās plan for a stronger economy and a more secure future, or go back to Labourās reckless spending and high taxes.
Letās not leave the job half done. Party Vote National today.

Let's not leave the job half done. Party Vote National.
This litte little one is certainly the youngest New Zealander Iāve met on this campaign - just two weeks old!
I want every Kiwi kid to have the best start in life, and a more secure future with more savings for their first home and retirement.
So if National is re-elected, newborns will get a $1500 KiwiSaver payment so every Kiwi kid has more money saved for their first home or retirement.
As a dad, I want every Kiwi kid to have the best start in life.
In the last three years, weāve transformed our education system, and weāre already seeing significant improvements in reading and maths. But thereās still more work to do.
The kids I met at Busy Bees in WhakatÄne with Dana Kirkpatrick today will be heading off to school soon, and they deserve classrooms where every child gets the help they need.
Thatās why National will expand the Maths Acceleration Programme, giving 40,000 more students more help with maths.
Weāll also introduce a $1,500 KiwiSaver baby boost, ban social media for under-16s, keep young people in school until Year 11 and replace NCEA.
Letās stick with the plan thatās working. Party Vote National.
Weāre making good progress in education and National will build on that. We will expand the maths acceleration program giving 40,000 more students help with maths.
As of today, our historic Free Trade Agreement with India is in effect.
Working closely with Prime Minister @narendramodi, weāve delivered a deal that will help grow both of our economies.
From today, Kiwi businesses can reach over a billion more customers with significantly reduced tariffs.
That means itās easier for Kiwi businesses to sell more, hire more staff, invest in machinery and expand, creating more jobs and higher wages for Kiwis. Thatās more money flowing into Kiwi communities.
Thatās why National has been hustling on the world stage, getting trade deals done.
Letās stick with the plan thatās working. Party Vote National.
Big day for Kiwi exporters. Our Free Trade Agreement with India is now in force.
That means goods leaving here at the Ports of Auckland can reach one of the worldās fastest-growing economies with lower tariffs.
More orders, more money flowing back into Kiwi communities, more jobs and higher wages for Kiwis.
Todd McClay and National have done the hard yards to get this deal over the line. Itās exactly why weāve been hustling on the world stage, getting trade deals done.
Letās stick with the plan thatās working. Party Vote National.
When Kiwi businesses win overseas, Kiwis win at home.
On day one of our Free Trade Agreement with India, Auckland-founded Valocity has landed the biggest deal in its history.
Thatās what this agreement is about: opening doors so our businesses can grow, and bringing more jobs and higher incomes back home.
Congratulations to Carmen and the Valocity team.
Today, our India FTA is in effect. Kiwi businesses can now reach over a billion more customers with reduced tariffs, creating more jobs, higher wages and more money flowing into Kiwi communities.
National is backing Waikato with better roads, better healthcare, safer communities and a stronger economy.
Weāre extending the Waikato Expressway, building a new medical school, delivering 61 new classrooms and backing major investments that will create more jobs and boost exports.
Police foot patrols are up 141%, and weāre investing in the infrastructure Waikato needs to keep growing.
Waikato is heading in the right direction, and we canāt afford to put that progress at risk.
Thatās what I told these folk building the new Pullman Hotel today.
Party Vote National for no new taxes and a growing economy.
Our economy is growing faster than Australia, the UK and the US. That means 220,000 new jobs coming over the next four years, with wages rising faster than prices. And, of course, no new taxes.
BREAKING: A re-elected National Government will make it a crime to remain silent and not disclose information relating to a child being murdered.
New Zealand children have died at the hands of, or with the knowledge of, people who should be protecting them.
The right to silence should not be abused so these horrific crimes go unpunished.
National is committed to fixing the basics in law and order, and building a future where all New Zealanders can feel safe in their communities.
Rural New Zealand produce the best food and fibre in the world.
National has set an ambitious target to double exports by 2034, and weāre backing our farmers and growers to get there through more trade deals, better access to water and fertiliser, less red tape and improved land use rules.
That means more jobs, higher wages and stronger regional economies.
Letās stick with the plan thatās working. Party Vote National.
In Greymouth today at Westpower, who are behind the Waitaha hydro scheme.
It was stuck for years and years. Nationalās fast-track got it approved in five months.
Thatās clean, local power for around 12,000 homes.
We want more projects like this built faster. Party Vote National.
New Zealand's biggest solar farm officially opened today.
And the good news is, National will make it easier for both homeowners and renters to generate their own cheap power too.
Our Home Energy Fund will make it easier for households to invest in solar, batteries, insulation and other energy resilience measures without large upfront costs.
And within the first six months of a re-elected National Government, shops will be able to sell plug-in solar panels off the shelf. So you can walk into a local shop like Bunnings or Mitre 10, walk out with a plug-in solar panel, and start generating electricity when you get home, whether you own or rent. As easy as that.
This election is going to be tight, and the choice couldnāt be clearer.
National has a plan for more affordable power, including plug-in solar, with No New Taxes. Or a Labour government that would leave Kiwis worse off with nine new taxes.
This debate highlighted how serious this election is.
There is a clear choice between sticking with Nationalās plan that is working, or going back to the same Labour Party who made this mess.
Itās going to be tight.
Stick with the plan thatās working and Party Vote National.
