Kia ora John,

We have to make this a one-term National Government.

New Zealanders can’t afford another three years of cuts—and it’s only going to get worse once David Seymour becomes Deputy PM on Saturday.

That’s why today, we're launching our Fightback Fund - so we’re ready to campaign the moment we need to.

This is our biggest appeal of 2025 — and right now, every dollar you chip in will be doubled by our matched fund donors. That’s twice the pressure on this Government—and twice the power to fight back. If you donate $20, we get $40. You donate $100, we get $200. It's that easy.

Last week, Christopher Luxon paid for his Budget by cutting the future pay of women – our teachers, nurses, and midwives - by cancelling their pay equity claims.

Now, he’s stealing from our kids' futures by slashing the Government KiwiSaver contribution – all while giving handouts to tech giants like Google and Facebook, the fossil fuel industry, and tobacco companies.

To top it all off, on Saturday David Seymour becomes Deputy Prime Minister. The stakes could not be higher.

There's never been a more important time to fight back, Rob. Labour is proud to be powered by people like you, standing up for what’s right.

If you’ve been waiting for the moment to make a difference — this is it.

But this match offer won’t last long. Please chip in now, John. Our generous large donors will double your impact. And let's help make it a one-term National government.

Let’s take the fight to National — and build a fairer, better future together.

Ngā mihi maioha,

Rob Salmond, Labour
