Labour has shifted into campaign mode as the party meets for its annual conference in Auckland. 

With less than a year until the next election, Labour party leader, Chris Hipkins opened with an emphatic message “Believe We Can Win”.

Hipkins told Francesca Rudkin that the party has been focusing on what Kiwis didn't like about their last election campaign. 

'We've spent time really focusing on what didn't go well for us and what we need to change.'
