New Zealand is still at least 12 months out from a general election but the latest Newshub - Reid Research poll released on Sunday shows Labour down on just 32.3 percent, with National on 40.7 percent, ACT on 10 percent and the Greens on 9.5 percent.

These poll results mean National and ACT could hypothetically govern together if an election was called today.

Speaking to Tova O'Brien on Monday morning, ACT party leader David Seymour was asked if he would like the role of finance minister in a hypothetical National/ACT government.
