Chris Hipkins: Labour leader on the new RNZ-Reid Research poll showing more people blaming the current Govt for the state of the economy

Chris Hipkins says Kiwis are starting to see things are going backwards under the current Government. 

The latest RNZ-Reid Research poll reveals more voters blame the coalition for the struggling economy, than the previous Labour Government.

This is despite senior Cabinet Ministers claiming a financial mess was left behind by Labour.

Hipkins says Labour will set out ways it could improve the economy, but right now the ball's in the Government's court.

"We've got to get New Zealand investing in productive businesses, rather than just relying on the housing market going up in value in order to grow our economy."
