Labour isn't saying that a single policy will address the Auckland housing crisis. Their package also includes this foreign sales ban, building 100,000 houses and Loan to Value Ratio exemption for first home buyers. I think the public see this as a better approach to National's (increase land supply?) and hence why it's so popular with the public. (regardless of its actual likely effectiveness)
