Unemployment up to 5.3 percent (the worst in 9 years as businesses halt hiring).
18,000 jobs lost over the past year.
Youth unemployment up, with more quitting the job search & going back to study (probably fearing that Lux-flakes ❄️ will come after their parent's income) #nzpol
Unemployment rises again to near nine-year high of 5.3%
160,000 people are now without jobs, the highest number since 1994.

While - let's make sure it's *very* clear, we *have* to know how far this goes! - *riding bikes* 😱

What a betrayal!

Winston Peters has handed victory to ACT by supporting the Corporate Bill of Rights that is the Regulatory Standards Bill
