On The Campaign: The minor parties make their case - can TOP join them in Parliament?

With the election just weeks away, a new poll gives us a glimpse into how voters feel about one of the major topics this campaign season – tax. 

No new taxes for working people. No new taxes full stop. Taxes for capital gains. Tax the rich. Tax inheritance. Tax landowners. 

The campaign season’s only just officially begun but it feels like we’ve already been hearing debates about the subject of taxes and levies for a while now. 

The latest Ipsos Issues Monitor survey dove deeper into the tax debate, showing about two-thirds of Kiwis would support a wealth tax. 

Today on The Front Page, Newstalk ZB political reporter, Ethan Griffiths is with us to break down the numbers.

Parliament is officially over and now the gloves are coming off.  

New Zealanders go to the polls on November 7, and between now and then we’re going to see the parties make their pitches, ramp up their attacks, and fight for every last vote. 

The next 44 days will be filled with policy announcements, political debates, carefully choreographed photo ops, an endless stream of memes, and inevitably -- drama. 

So, as the buzz of the Beehive fades into silence and the campaign proper takes centre stage, what issues are likely to dominate and who has the most to gain, and perhaps -- the most to lose?  

Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald political editor Thomas Coughlan is with us to break it all down.

Why this election could come down to the smaller parties

Nicky Hager is back with a new book taking aim at one of the country’s most prominent lobby groups, the Taxpayers’ Union. 

He alleges the organisation has played a key role in shifting New Zealand politics to the right, claiming they worked with the tobacco industry and focused on race-based campaigns. 

The NZTU’s director Jordan Williams flatly denies the allegations and has said the book is full of inaccuracies. 

So, what exactly is Hager claiming, what evidence does he have, and what does the book tell us about the political landscape heading into this election? 

Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald senior journalist, David Fisher, joins us to take us through the the allegations and the broader picture around them.
