Nicola Willis: National deputy leader confirms possibility of working with NZ First if that is the only option
Election 2023 - A podcast by NZME
National's deputy has confirmed the party would work with New Zealand First - if it came to it. It's understood leader Chris Luxon will confirm in a social media video today that he's willing to work with Winston Peters if necessary. It comes after weeks of questions. Nicola Willis told Tim Dower their preference is to form a two-party coalition government of National and ACT. “Realistically, if New Zealand First is to return to Parliament and we need to pick up the phone to Mr Peters to keep Labour out, to keep the coalition of chaos of Te Pati Maori and the Greens out.” LISTEN ABOUTSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
