Given that it's extremely rare to have a single term government in NZ, to be polling behind the opposition not even half way through your term is a dramatic swing in public opinion.

Neither of them has a credible plan to end the 10+ years of housing crisis that New Zealanders have suffered.

You are aware that house prices have dropped significantly in the last few years, right? And not by a small amount, either.

Out of the two, it's definitely National that have done the most to lower house prices, Labour made a colossal mess of Kiwibuild then kinda gave up.
