	Description:		New Zealand politics kicks off this year under the shadow of a looming general election. From a continued cost of living crisis and economic recovery to Treaty debates and tensions between coalition partners, this year will see a mixed bag from the Beehive. It comes off the back of a major push for economic growth in 2025, with RMA reform and fast-track approvals dominated headlines. But, will all that pay off? Today on The Front Page, we dive into where each party stands, what they’ve announced thus far, and what the election campaign could bring us with Newstalk ZB political reporter Ethan Griffiths. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
