The cost-of-living just keeps climbing under Labour. Someone with an average mortgage of around $400,000 will pay $300 per week more in interest if they fix their mortgage now, compared with 18 months ago. That is crippling. Check the thread for our plan.

A National government will fix inflation and build a stronger economy for New Zealand.

Oh for heavens sake. This is how it it everywhere in the developed world. This is the pandemic, decades of neo-lib economics & refusal to invest in people. And a refusal to tax profits fairly. We don't need more of your austerity for the poor & bonuses for the rich. Go away.

Is that why you’re going to give investors a tax break on their mortgages while doing nothing for homeowners?

Listen to this babbling bs when Luxon (for once) is put on the spot then tell us he can be an effective PM. The man reached his competence level as a salesman years back - everything since has been a charade.

No integrity. No credibility. No gravitas. Just blue-suit bluster.

🚨 RFK Jr. Warned Us About BlackRock and the 50-Year Mortgage! “BlackRock wants to be everybody's landlord and everybody's neighbor.” “By 2030, these giant corporations are on track to own 60% of the single family homes in our country.” “Monthly mortgage payments for homebuyers are up 20% just in the last year, and that's because interest rates have doubled. The cost of the average home has gone from $250,000 to $400,000 just since 2019.” His plan to fix this? Allow young Americans to COMPETE with BlackRock, not enslave them with debt for the rest of their lives:

Labour is tackling the cost of living. Wages have risen faster with Labour in a year than they did in a decade under the Tories. We have overseen six interest rate cuts in a row, and in Spring people will have £150 off of their energy bills.

I want people to realise their dreams of buying their own home. I want them to feel they can get on in life. But right now, those hopes are shattered by the Tory mortgage penalty. Labour will ease the cost of living crisis and help get first time buyers on the ladder.

Biden Introduces Rule to PUNISH Home Buyers With Good Credit "If you have a FICO score of 620, you get a 1.75% discount on your mortgage fees. If you have a 740 score ... you have to pay 1% MORE," reported Tucker Carlson. "And in real life, that means that over the course of a 30-year mortgage for a $400,000 home, that's a swing of more than $14,000."

The brass neck on the Chancellor here is *extraordinary*. Here she is hitting out at the insane untargeted energy price guarantee under Liz Truss that was *adopting Labour Party policy wholesale*. "The previous government pushed up borrowing, interest rates, inflation, and mortgage costs" with the package of support *that Labour demanded of them*. This was Labour Party policy. They only hit out at the Tories for not announcing it sooner!

Great to talk to BBC Newsbeat today in an important week for students across the country. The ambitions of young people shouldn't be held back by the cost of living crisis. My government will deliver a thriving economy, so that with Labour, they aren't.

🚨 BREAKING President Trump just announced the most AGGRESSIVE housing reform plan in U.S. history coming in 2026 plus a brand new Fed Chair. Read this carefully. “I’ll soon announce our next Fed Chair who believes in MUCH LOWER interest rates.” Mortgage payments are coming down even further. Facts Democrats hate. Under Democrats the yearly cost of a typical mortgage EXPLODED by $15,000. In just 11 months under Trump that number is already DOWN $3,000. This is what happens when adults run the economy. Lower rates. Cheaper homes. Real relief for families. That’s how you do it.

Bike shop owners: Our health care premiums are going to triple this year, which equates to double the cost of what we pay for our mortgage. Our profit margins are already down. Every 2 to 3 months we get letters from the companies saying we're having another 10% increase, and it just keeps escalating. It's kind of tough.

BREAKING: White House officials are reportedly unhappy about 50-year mortgage idea praised by Trump. This is how stupid the idea is: A 50 year mortgage would have an interest rate that is around 1% higher than a 30-year loan. This means that a $500k loan would pay the following per month if the 30 year rate is 6.5%: 30 Year Loan at 6.5% = $3,160/month 50 Year Loan at 7.5% = $3,201/month So it would be higher monthly payments and you'd pay more than twice the total interest.

When the government gets involved in healthcare, costs explode, quality suffers, and the American people are left with no choice. The average family health-insurance premium now tops $24,000 a year—more than a lot of folks pay for mortgage or rent. That’s insane.

With interest rates over 6%, that means workers have to earn 10% before tax just to pay the interest on their mortgages. How many super funds return 10% per annum. Next to none I’d say. Every dollar put into super is another dollar higher on your mortgage. Superannuation only benefits banks and superannuation funds at the expense of the worker. #auspol
