On The Campaign: Who is promising to resign over a policy?

There are some new Warrant of Fitness rules that could save Kiwis billions. 

The changes mean people who buy a new car will only need to get their next WOF after four years. 

Vehicles aged 4 to 14 will only need a WOF every two years - with cars over 14 still needing one every year. 

Today on The Front Page, AA motoring spokesperson Allister Wade is with us to talk through the changes and what it means for you.

The Warehouse built its name on being the place where everyone gets a bargain. 

But with Kmart winning over shoppers and Temu competing for their dollars online, the red shed has struggled to keep its place in Kiwi shopping baskets. 

Now, the company has unveiled a new strategy to turn things around, after its chief executive admitted it had lost sight of what customers want. 

So what will it take to win them back? And after years of trying to turn its fortunes around, what makes this plan different? 

Today on The Front Page, the Herald’s Tom Raynel joins us to explain what’s next for The Warehouse.

Every party promises a stronger economy. But what would their plans actually mean for your wages, bills and tax?

In the final episode of The Front Page’s election series, Chelsea Daniels asks National’s Nicola Willis, Labour’s Barbara Edmonds, ACT’s David Seymour, the Greens’ Lawrence Xu-Nan, New Zealand First’s Craig Stobo and Opportunity’s Qiulae Wong how they would grow the economy and tackle the cost of living.
