Responsible fiscal plan or damaging cuts? Pacific leaders dissect Budget 2026

Is Budget 2026 a responsible plan for New Zealand's future, or does it leave vulnerable communities behind? In this episode of Pacific Mornings, host William Terite sits down with a panel of political voices to dissect the newly released Budget 2026 and its direct impact on Pacific communities.

Join National Party candidate Angee Nicholas, Labour Deputy Leader Carmel Sepuloni, and Green MP Teanau Tuiono as they clash over the government's economic priorities. From defense spending and public service job cuts to the future of the Ministry for Pacific Peoples and cost-of-living relief, our panel pulls no punches.
