Poll: Can changing the way we shop actually make a difference? ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
Shopping has become such a big part of our everyday lives, and the choices we make can influence more than we realise.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.
But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
