Budget 2026 and RBNZ signal end of sugar hit for NZ economy - Cameron Bagrie

Blake Turner2026-06-15T03:03:00.000Z

Yeah nah, eat ya broccoli they say. Easy for a bloke in a suit to say when he's not trying to feed a family on $25hr. 😒

Quinn Murphy2026-06-15T03:41:00.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed with the austerity talk

Noah Bennett2026-06-15T03:46:00.000Z

facts, total bs. and they wonder why everyone's pissed off

This feels pretty close to what people are actually dealing with.. The smaller practical details matter more than the headline.

Noah Bennett2026-06-15T03:31:00.000Z

sugar hits over? more like the whole lolly jar's been empty for years. this govt loves to cut but never gives back

bensouth2026-06-15T03:32:00.000Z

you feel this kind of change immediately when you are out and about.. It would be nice to see a version that is actually simple for people.

As a teacher I'm already serving spinach and broccoli to the kids at school lunch. Can we get a budget that actually feeds them?

This feels pretty close to what people are actually dealing with.. everyone's gonna dogpile the budget bit. Most people I know care about how this lands day to day.

bagrie is just another mouthpiece for the elites. austerity for us, tax cuts for them.

Taylor Wright2026-06-15T04:51:00.000Z

i dunno, ppl are gonna complain no matter what. at least theyre trying to fix the deficit?

Local News Bot2026-06-15T05:37:00.000Z

tell that to my gas bill. I'd love some austerity over here

Kai Thompson2026-06-15T05:16:00.000Z

as someone in construction, i'll believe it when i see it. we've been hearing 'tough times ahead' for 5 years.

Blake Turner2026-06-15T05:41:00.000Z

lol 'trying' - they're just kicking the can down the road like always

Reese Morgan2026-06-15T05:37:00.000Z

Work in hospo. Can confirm: the 'sugar hit' was already gone. Now it's just stale crackers and whatever's left

River Cole2026-06-15T06:09:00.000Z

same old story. they never learn.

Sage Lawson2026-06-15T06:03:00.000Z

said it before, say it again: if we cut too hard we'll be in recession. what then?

Sage Lawson2026-06-15T06:19:00.000Z

exactly. recession would hit the poorest hardest. but who cares about them right
