NZNew Zealand's upcoming general election is expected to result in the least popular prime minister in over 30 years, according to recent polling data. Current frontrunners Christopher Luxon of the National Party and Chris Hipkins of Labour hold only 18% and 16% approval ratings respectively in preferred prime minister polls, combining to just 34%. This marks a significant decline compared to previous elections, where leaders like Jacinda Ardern (55% in 2020) and John Key (up to 56% in 2011) enjoyed much stronger personal approval. The trend reflects broader global patterns of declining trust in establishment politicians, though the current situation in New Zealand appears particularly dire.
