72,000 flee NZ: If this many people had been leaving under Labour, Mike Hosking would be screaming
Jesus wept…
‘People voting with their feet’: Labour seizes on exodus of over 72,000 Kiwis from NZ
Over 72,000 New Zealanders have left the country in the year to September, new data released by Stats NZ has revealed.
Figures show that the number of Kiwis headed for the departure gates came in at 72,700, with the next highest group of people leaving being Chinese, at 7,900.
At the same time, New Zealand’s net migration gain in the year to September 2025 was the lowest it has been since 2013, excluding the Covid period, coming in at 12,400, down from over 42,000 in the year to September 2024.
…The sheer incompetence of this Government is staggering.
They imposed a massive public funding amputation using an Austerity Budget that borrowed more for tax cuts we cant afford while hollowing out actual money for public services.
This led to a total shut down of the construction industry for public housing builds and has seen workers flee to Australia!
National did this, National take the blame.
What I found most delightful, is the hypocrisy of the NZ mainstream media.
If Labour was in power during an exodus this massive, the mainstream media led by Mike Hosking would be demanding revolution while listing every reason Labour were driving Kiwis offshore, yet it happens while National is in power and no such reaction from the media!
If this many people had been leaving under Labour, Mike Hosking and every other Right Wing Troll would be screaming!
Oh how quiet they are as their Government destroys the Country so badly it is bleeding out in front of us.
Time to vote this Government out. Now.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
Surely by now Luxon et al must be able to see that their way of running NZ ‘like a business instead of a country’ will be their downfall. Add to that Luxon’s refusal to even consider trimming what he felt he had to pay back to the greedy landlords after their bribe – how wasn’t this a criminal offense? With egg on his face, Luxon is now hell-bent leaving as much mess as he can for the Left to clean up – such unadulterated spite and stupidity from a square peg in a round hole. Even a Bishop/Willis roll won’t solve their problems as both are just as tunnel-visioned and lacking political acumen. You see, most of the CoC are simply there for what they can get for themselves. That’s not how a successful democracy works – it needs empowered citizens, fair processes, responsive policy, info/communication and social cohesion – all so lacking in this CoC-up mob. And thanks again Hosking/ZB trolls – you are the ultimate evasive lying hypocrites and also there for yourselves! The only people tuning into your “show” are partially brain dead.
Hosking is the most popular Broadcaster in New Zealand which suggests he is doing something correct.
Hosking is the most popular Broadcaster in your head.
Perhaps if you double the thickness of your tinfoil, you’ll be able to block his deranged musings out?
The statistics prove it so I’m confused by your tinfoil remark. I use tinfoil in cooking I must admit.
IF THAT IS CORRECT IS IT ANY WONDER THE COUNTRY IS FUCKED .
Screams have apparently been heard in the dead of night coming from Hoskings abode
No Bob that isn’t logical. Luxon is showing as “preferred PM” and we can all see his “massive”shortfalls. Hosking is just another puffed up bag of wind – it’s all about him! https://www.google.com/search?q=massive+shortfalls
Or Bob, it suggests there’s a truck load of stupid people in this country
Totally agree there’s a truckload of stupid people in this country many of whom expose themselves by commenting on blog sites.
Bob, Mike Hosking is in your head, in your head, Zombie, Zombie, Zombeeeeeeee

and yet you Bob hang on his every word, zombie.

NZ under Bob the first and National. And no Bob we’re not your fans we are just pointing out how uneducated you are, possibly due to your deficit.
My education is impeccable, without doubt, I’m a man of letters covering both commerce and science.
I respectfully request you tell us your academic achievements.
Back in 2021 Mike Hosking said he would leave NZ for Austalia.

Four years on and we are still waiting for that promise.
I don’t bother with his articles or hearing him on News-Squark ZB. He rants like a Lunatic and quite honestly I often wonder what he is taking because he looks abit Spaced Out in any photos.
If I was 30 years younger I too would have left NZ because of the Drastic Mess this Incompetent Government has Inflicted upon mostly Low Income NZers.
They, this government, simply Do Not Care. All they care about is Their Pay Packets and Perks of the Job/Roll. Once the votes are counted they Suddenly Forget about those who voted for them.
They also Failure to LISTEN to THE PEOPLE eg those who voted for them. It’s like they Have Already Made their Decision(s) and no amount of Giving NZers the Illusion we are still a democracy will change their minds eg the recent passing of the passing of the RSB that 99% of NZers were against but that Bill still went through into law.
That shows a Huge Dollop of Arrogance in this government with a Sense of Entitlement.
Time this Mess of a Government is Voted Out.
What always impressed me about Hosking was his ability to give John Key a blow job on air ,,, and speak into the microphone at the same time…..
….The Mans got talent ,,, as Bob the knob would have us acknowledge.
I thank you yet again CG for your undivided attention, you are truly my most devout follower.
