On this side of the House, we are realistic about what is happening in New Zealand and what we need to do to help New Zealanders. Inflation worldwide is rampant; it is running. In the US, inflation is at about 8.5 percent; in Canada, it's 6.7 percent; in Germany, it's at 7.3 percent; and in the UK, it's heading towards 9 percent. The OECD average is around 8.8 percent. In New Zealand, we are not immune to worldwide phenomena, we were not immune to the global pandemic, and we are not immune to what is happening with inflation around the world. In Australia, they are currently at 5.5 percent inflation, and their Reserve Bank over there is predicting it is going to head towards between 6 and 9 percent.
