Unpacking the Budget

Unpacking the Budget

Author: ACT New Zealand / Podcasts NZ May 18, 2020 Duration: 33:11
Labour knows how to throw your tax money around and its track record shows it’ll fail to deliver on its promise to rebuild the economy. What’s in the Government’s Budget for the year and what’s ACT’s alternative solution?

Every week, Politics in Full Sentences: ACT New Zealand breaks down the political noise into clear, substantive discussion. This isn't about soundbites; it's about exploring the principles of free markets and individual liberty that drive policy thinking. Host Ruwan Premathilaka guides conversations that first make sense of the week's events in parliament and the media, then pivot to a forward-looking proposal aimed at tangible change. You'll regularly hear directly from ACT Leader David Seymour and Deputy Leader Beth Houlbrooke, who delve into the details behind their party's positions. The dialogue is built for anyone interested in the intersection of political philosophy and real-world application, fitting naturally into both Business and Education streams of thought. By dedicating time to a single "big idea" in each episode, this podcast provides depth on solutions rather than just critiquing problems. It’s a weekly audio space for those who believe political discourse can be both principled and practical, offering listeners a structured yet engaging way to understand the currents shaping New Zealand's future. The production is authorised by D Smith of Newmarket.
