Coalition Analysis: Is the Party Over?

from Thoughts & Comments · host Rhema Media

Are Coalition government partners eyeing each other's share of the voting pie?  According to former Prime Minister Helen Clark, New Zealand First is 'eating fairly deeply into National's support', suggesting the Coalition goose is cooked; but a political analyst says the recent tit-for-tat between the two parties doesn't mean a break-up or earlier election.   Dr Bryce Edwards of the Democracy Project looks at how things stand at this stage of the election cycle, following revelations of leadership differences over the Iran war. ~~~~ Tune into Thoughts & Comments from 10:00am - 2:00pm on the Rhema Media App.For more from the show, visit the Thoughts & Comments page at rhema.co.nz.Support Rhema: https://donate.rhemamedia.co.nz/?brand=rhema&utm_source=omnystudio&utm_medium=linkSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
