Finance Minister Nicola Willis joins Nick Mills in the studio for her monthly catch up.

The latest poll from the Taxpayer Union and Curia has National at 28.4% - the lowest for the party since it formed Government in 2023.

Nick questions Luxon's leadership and asks Willis - is there any hope for Luxon as Prime Minister.

These numbers mean the left block could form a government, and is Nationals lowest result while in government since November 1999.

They also discuss the effects that Kiwis could have to deal with from the Iran conflict, and what the government has planned to ease financial pressure. 

Plus, where is the Wellington North candidate - has Wellington been neglected this election?

Nick Mills wraps the week with former Minister and political commentator Peter Dunne and political commentator and barrister Brigitte Morten.

The latest taxpayer union poll shows National at the lowest point since 2020 - 28%. After a failed coup last year, is this the right time for Bishop to take over as National leader? Our guests face off over what caused this and what will happen with the role of Prime Minister this election. 

Then the Iran War. How close are we to calling it a World War and how has Luxon handled this as an international leader? Should we as a country take a stand and what should it be? 

Dunne and Morten share their thoughts on the council's progress and what to expect from the release of the financial saving plans. Plus - should Moa Point impacted businesses receive compensation? 

They also discuss what the future of libraries should look like - following Nick's tour of Te Matapihi, the new central library. And bootcamps - is this the best use of $4 million, and the best option for the kids. Then hots or nots, our panel share their highlight and lowlight for the week.
