Walter Nash, Arnold Nordmeyer and others at Paraparaumu

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Following the retirement of Walter Nash, Arnold Nordmeyer (1901-1989) was elected leader of the New Zealand Labour Party on 26 February 1963. He was the first Labour Party leader to be both New Zealand-born and a university graduate.

In December 1965 Nordmeyer was replaced by Norman Kirk, as the Labour caucus felt that Nordmeyer was out of touch with his Members and vice versa.

Nordmeyer is perhaps best remembered for the “Black Budget” he delivered as Finance Minister in 1958. The budget introduced a number of unpopular changes, including significant tax increases.
