What will a National - Act - NZ First coalition look like?

The Front Page - Podcast tekijän mukaan NZ Herald

While special votes are still to be counted, and a by-election needs to be held, it looks like National and Act are set to form the next government.   With Christopher Luxon as Prime Minister, he now has to build a Cabinet and start implementing his policies.   But without a full majority, Luxon needs to negotiate with Act and its leader David Seymour to decide what policies to adopt and how many of Act’s MPs will sit around the Cabinet table.   The question of how involved NZ First and Winston Peters will be remains unanswered, as the often left-leaning special votes could bump National and Act below a majority.   So, what could this coalition look like, and how big of a swing to the right will Aotearoa experience?  Today, NZ Herald senior political writer Derek Cheng joins The Front Page to discuss the shape of politics to come.  Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
