The Green Party is imploring the Government to choose actual solutions to homelessness, after Ministers today announced the Government’s plan to effectively criminalise it.

Luxon chooses to punish the homeless after making more people homeless

We are building a future where we do more, faster, to protect our planet and make sure everyone is treated equally.

Latest stats indicating the worst unemployment numbers since the outbreak of the pandemic are further proof that the Govt’s policies are forcing people further into hardship and poverty.

Meridian, Contact, Mercury and Genesis Energy are reporting record profits. Meanwhile, are your power bills any lower?

The Greens are calling on the Govt to ensure emergency housing is available to all people experiencing homelessness as Cyclone Vaianu approaches the North Island.

Luxon is telling people to stock up & prepare to stick out this storm at home. What does that mean for the people he has made homeless?

We are deeply concerned about major cuts to funding for Māori news and current affairs programmes Te Karere and The Hui, by Te Māngai Pāhō.

This is terrible for Māori media, and sadly consistent with this Government’s continual undermining of Māori culture.

The flooding in Te Tai Tokerau is a climate change charged weather event. The Government will try to tell you that floods like these shouldn't be politicised. But the thing is, this is political.

The Green Party says Budget 2026 leaves New Zealanders fending for themselves with no vision or plan for the country. Everyday, New Zealanders feel the reality that Luxon’s Government has no hope, no plan, no ambition and no vision for our country. Today’s Budget is yet more proof ‼️

Today, our Finance Minister pulled together a press conference to announce that there is no new support on the way for families, despite it costing $23 more than normal to fill an average petrol car & $36 more to fill a diesel car.

The decision to provide Police with the power to issue move-on orders to homeless people as young as 14 will have disastrous consequences for our country and our most vulnerable.

Luxon has chosen to make more people homeless, and now he’s criminalising them for being homeless.

Under the National ACT NZ First coalition, more people are without jobs than at any time in over ten years. The highest unemployment rate in a decade 🫤

Food banks are overwhelmed. Homelessness is rampant. Even those with jobs are struggling as groceries and bills rise faster than wages 💔

The Green Party is announcing that in government, it will overhaul the laws protecting conservation land and wildlife in Aotearoa. It will scrap the Government's current reform and starting again with a process focused on protecting what we have for future generations 🌏🌿

The Māori Seats in parliament are for Māori people. They are a Tiriti-based right not a race-based right.

This is why at Rātana Pā we launched a member's bill to entrench Māori seats - the bare minimum for protect dedicated Māori voice in our parliament.

Government's fossil fuel relief package fails to meet the crisis

We are building a future where we do more, faster, to protect our planet and make sure everyone is treated equally.

The Green Party celebrates today’s court ruling that the New Zealand Superannuation Fund (our pensions) should not be invested in companies doing business in occupied Palestine.

Today’s report from the Environment Select Committee shows 95% of submitters oppose the Fast-track Approvals Amendment Bill.

Yet again, Luxon’s Government is squashing long standing environmental safeguards, te Tiriti obligations & democracy to benefit their wealthy mates and corporations.

"The Greens affirm our pledge to properly resource and promote clear pathways for timely, free, non-discriminatory access to all forms of gender-affirming healthcare based on informed consent and self-determination."
