Election 2023: Chris Hipkins rules out working with New Zealand First, ACT Party
www.newshub.co.nz
Hipkins described a coalition of ACT, New Zealand First and National as a "coalition of fear".

Really solid call, and timely comments about the divisive politics being imported from America at the moment.

    As much as I dislike NZ first, the only way labour forms a government with the current polling is if NZF break the 5% threshold and acts as kingmaker to push them over 60 seats. Without NZF in coalition it’s either a national/act government or a national minority government.

      I suspect Labour would rather spend a term in opposition than a term being Winnie’s bitch, after what happened last time.
