The Prime Minister's signalling he'd prefer a one-party Government, rather than a coalition.
Parties appear to be moving closer to campaign mode, announcing policies ahead of Election Day on November seventh.
The Government's also promising further cost-savings to be re-invested into the frontline ahead of this year's Budget.
Christopher Luxon told Kerre Woodham New Zealand First Leader Winston Peters could work with Labour – something he calls a risk.
He says if push comes to shove, he can work with ACT and New Zealand First.
And although National’s campaigning on raising the retirement age, it seems as though not everyone is on board.
A major OECD report is the latest to call for the age of eligibility for Superannuation to increase.
Luxon told Woodham the age should be 67, and it will be an election policy.
He says they'd want to do it as soon as they get in for a second term, but other parties need to come on board and say it's a good idea too.
Meanwhile, Labour's leader has said the party's open to a conversation with other political parties about potentially means-testing the pension.
