Judith Collins may be backing Christopher Luxon as the next leader of the National Party, but her endorsement likely holds little sway with her caucus colleagues after her recent actions, one political commentator says.
Just hours after receiving a vote of no confidence from National MPs, former leader Collins told Newshub's Amelia Wade there were likely going to be a "couple of candidates" vying for her old job. Newshub understands the challengers could include Luxon, Mark Mitchell and Simon Bridges.
