How political parties are preparing their pitch for power

The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald

The political machine is starting to hum as Aotearoa gears towards the general election. The chance to have your say is a mere six months away, and the good and the great are already competing for a ballot box tick by their name.  So, who has the funds to run a massive campaign? What’s more valued, ideas or leadership?  And will any issue matter more than the economy during a planned recession?  Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald political editor Claire Trevett gives Damien her take on the runup to an election - that at this time last year, few expected to be led by two middle-aged men called Chris.
