“We’re investing in more generation to keep power prices down, that’s why we need to increase power prices.”

Tell you what tho, the 70,000 plus people who left for australia are definitely not going to concerts in NZ. Nor are all the people out of a job. Or the people barely making ends meet whose housing/food costs are taking up all their income. Or the people who are sick all the time.
