You’re the head of China - once one of the greatest empires in the world. But in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s, China was defeated by the British, French, Japan, Russia and was put to shame on the world stage for over 100 years.

ACT leader David Seymour has slammed the Labour Party's promise to phase out single-use and hard-to-recycle plastics if it is re-elected.

Its new policy means plastic straws, fruit stickers, cotton-buds, cutlery and certain cups will all be replaced by sustainable alternatives by 2025. Items without an alternative will be covered by a $50 million research fund to encourage businesses to develop non-plastic substitutes.

ACT candidate and prominent gun advocate Nicole McKee says the party's rise is due to Kiwis recognising "what's occurring out there in New Zealand" - and is not just on the back of former NZ First voters turning to them.

Recent poll results show ACT would win nine seats at the election, with leader David Seymour currently the only party member occupying Parliament. 

NZ First, meanwhile, was on 2 percent - well below the 5 percent threshold to get back into Parliament.
