Gloriavale Christian School's facing closure again, after a review found information was withheld from Education Review Office investigators.

The Ministry of Education's cancelled the school's registration for a second time, and applied to lift High Court orders preventing its closure.

Gloriavale Leavers' Trust founder, Liz Gregory, says when it finally shuts will depend on the court's availability for urgent hearings.

"The one that kept the school open happened within a day or two, it was very quick. But I suspect that they want to sit down with the Gloriavale School, they'll want to discuss appropriate timeframes for closing."

National has been engaged in a barrage of negative ads about Labour in recent weeks, and they're not backing down despite the claims copping backlash.

Some clips describe tax ideas from other parties - like Opportunity’s Land Tax or the Green Party’s capital acquisition tax - as 'Labour's taxes'.

National Party campaign chief Simeon Brown is on the defence - and says there's an issue of credibility impacting Chris Hipkins and Labour. 

"They've done it before, they've got a track record of saying one thing and then bringing in more taxes - and that was at a time when they won the election with a Labour-majority Government."

The Prime Minister's defending taking a backup Defence Force plane to the 55th Pacific Islands Forum.

Two 575s were deployed to take Chris Luxon to Palau.

The fleet's been plagued with break-downs, and is being replaced as part of the Defence Capability Plan. 

Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says there's a fair case for this, given that New Zealand has a responsibility to make sure the delegation runs smoothly.
