Isn't it easy for Luxon to blame Labour? "This is a whiplash reaction to the high inflation caused by Labour handing out money during the pandemic". I don't think they have milked that cow as much as they can, they will be blaming others right up through the next election.

I guess it's pretty easy to blame others for your failings.

"No, I don't think firing 5-10k workers and significantly cutting money flowing to suppliers has made the recession worse, it was all stuff Labour did".
