Chris Luxon is ruling out working with Te Pāti Māori following this year's general election.

National's leader says the two parties have strongly different policies and visions for New Zealand.

Luxon told Mike Hosking Te Pāti Māori wants a separate Parliament and voting rights and doesn't accept Treaty settlements as full and final.

"We have strong beliefs around equal citizenship, one person, one vote and no co-governance of public services and those two sets of positions are just not workable or can be put together."
