A DISBUSTED POPULATION AFTER CLOSE ELECTIONS IN NEW ZEALAND
The parliamentary elections in New Zealand have revealed a deep unease among the population, marked by weariness and growing distrust of the political class. Inflation, record unemployment, the cost of housing, difficulties accessing healthcare, and the precarious situation of young people are fueling pessimism, while approximately 180 people leave the country every day, primarily for Australia. The two major parties, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon's party and Chris Hipkins's Labor Party, are struggling to gain traction and have not secured a clear mandate to govern. In this climate of disillusionment, voters have shown greater support for alternative parties, particularly the centrist Opportunity Party, which could play a decisive role in the next governing coalition.
