The latest Taxpayers Union-Curia poll and 1News Verian poll show the coalition Government is losing ground.

Both show the left bloc of Labour, the Greens, and Te Pāti Māori would have enough support to form the next government.

It’s all while Prime Minister Christopher Luxon’s first post-cab of the year was marred by questions about Act’s David Seymour – the man set to become Deputy PM in May.

Opposition leader, Chris Hipkins, has gone as far to call for Seymour to be removed as a Minister – over what he’s calling a “pattern of behaviour”.

So, is this the start of a fracture that can’t be healed? And does the public have good cause to be concerned about where we’re headed?

Today on The Front Page, Newstalk ZB political editor, Jason Walls, is with us to discuss the state of politics.
