And business confidence has improved since Labour & Green were kicked out of government :

There are signs business confidence is on the rise, in the latest New Zealand Institute of Economic Research quarterly survey.
In the last quarter of 2023, a net 10 percent of firms said they expected a deterioration in general economic conditions over the coming months, compared to a net 49 percent of firms feeling the same way the quarter before.
The study also showed businesses were finding it significantly easier to find labour and that there are signs of an ease in inflationary pressures.
Business confidence in the retail sector has seen a significant shift too.
A net 44 percent of retailers expected an improvement in general economic conditions, compared to a net 66 percent of shop owners expecting a deterioration in the economic outlook in the previous quarter.
The change shows the retail sector turning from the most downbeat sector to the most optimistic.
Feel good fuzzies for "How many Degrees James of the Rotten Green Brigade" most likely ;)
Fuel Tax increases Labout had planned would have shafted most of NZ to cover for the rest of the incompetence & large collection of potholes Labour amassed ;)
That would have properly f&$k*d the economy, blown the COL off the wall and propelled Kiwiland into the mother of all recessions with spiralling costs all over the place on top of the diving economy that Labour would have had on their hands looking forwards .. ;)
This is a government of middle managers not CEOs.
