Late update:

Stats from the radio show:

  • 125,000 immigrants entered NZ in 2025 (according to moderator)
  • ~10k immigrants/yr (on avg) are skilled workers filling shortages (according to an interviewee)
  • (unrelated to immigration) 1% of GDP is spent on defense

The greens and labor seem like the smart parties in the room. Immigrants are being scapegoated by the govs failure to invest in infrastructure.
