The economy has set the mood for the latest political polling. 

Both the Taxpayers' Union Curia poll and the 1 News Verian poll show the left bloc has the numbers to form a government if an election was held today. 

Both also have Chris Luxon losing support in the preferred Prime Minister stakes. 

Political commentator Brigitte Morten told Andrew Dickens some of the Government's announcements on the economy won't be flowing through yet. 

She says a lot of them are also around economic growth, rather than moves that are going to affect households.
