Auckland: New Labour leader and Prime Minister Chris Hipkins says he will refocus the party on “bread and butter” issues in a wide-ranging address to the nation which covered the inflation “pandemic”, rethinking co-governance and a personal statement about his marriage.
In his opening remarks, Hipkins set out his intention to focus mainly on the cost of living and issues affecting New Zealand families.
He also pledged to prune Labour’s policy programme, saying that over the next week the Cabinet would look at what was not needed right now to trim back the government work programme.
