Labour finance spokesman David Parker yesterday produced what he called a "road test" on National's economic policies and gave it a"fail."
He argued that Labour had more substantial policy alternatives to National's"micro interventions."
Mr Parker said National had failed to close the wage gap with Australia; to create more jobs, to lift wages, to have 40 per cent of the NZ Super Fund invested in New Zealand, the reduce income equality, and to build a more prosperous and ambitious New Zealand.
"Instead of trying to complete its goal, this Government abandons them and creates new ones," Mr Parker said.
He said laundry lists are not strategy, citing Naitonal's"120-point action plan;" 10-point better public services results target," and the 11-point"Key commitments to you."
