Labour Leader Helen Clark has today sent an ominous signal to every working New Zealander confirming on National Radio this morning that the Alliance's tax increases would be on the agenda if Labour and the Alliance won a second term in office.
"Helen Clark has finally admitted that a Labour/Alliance coalition means Labour's spending promises are to be funded by the Alliance's extreme tax hike promises.
"At least hard working New Zealanders now know that a vote for Labour is a vote for the Alliance's tax policy," said Rodney Hide.
