	Description:		The Front Page is revisiting some of the major stories of 2022. After a tumultuous period of upheaval, leadership coups and scandals, the National Party has enjoyed a period of far greater stability over the last 12 months. This has been reflected in the poll numbers, which have seen the party steadily rise under the leadership of Christopher Luxon. But Luxon is far from the finished political product. He’s made a fair share of gaffes and missteps, and there are still serious questions about National’s policies on major issues. So as the country heads into an election year, does Luxon have what it takes to turn that spike in popularity into a winning campaign platform? In November, Newstalk ZB chief political reporter Aaron Dahmen joined The Front Page to give his verdict on Luxon’s first 12 months in charge of the National Party, and what challenges lie ahead. You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network. New episodes return on January 9th.
