On Thursday, Finance Minister Grant Robertson unveiled his fifth budget – the country’s biggest ever with a six billion dollar price tag.  

And While Budget Day lets the party in power set out their agenda for the next year – and gives the Opposition a chance to cry foul about how they’re getting it wrong – beneath all the pantomime and catchphrases is a detailed examination of the biggest issues in the country right now. 

So where is all that money going, how will it affect everyday Kiwis, and what does this say about Labour’s future plans?

Today, New Zealand Herald Business editor-at-large Liam Dann joined Damian for all the expert analysis you’ll need.
