  "textContent": "**This is edition 2026/025 of the _Ten@10_ newsletter.**\n\nHi all,\n\nThis is the Ten@10, where I collate and summarise ten news items you generally won't see in the mainstream media.\n\nEnjoy!\n\n* * *\n\n## Are Labour and the Greens ready for a coalition with NZ First?\n\nBryce Edwards\n\n  * 🗳️ **NZ First's Surge** : Polls show NZ First at 9.8%, with steady growth. Peters has mastered the balancing act of playing the populist at home while cultivating an elder-statesman image abroad.\n  * 🤔 **Balance of Power** : With Labour at 35%, National at 31.9%, and NZ First at 9.8%, the next government hinges on NZ First's support. Peters could decide which side governs.\n  * 📊 **Strategic Flexibility** : Peters has governed with both Labour and National, and his ability to shift sides makes him a critical player for either bloc. His flexibility gives him leverage to negotiate the best deal.\n  * ⚖️ **Labour's Dilemma** : Labour may need NZ First to form a government. Despite previous tensions, they could partner again to avoid staying in opposition, with Peters possibly becoming PM.\n  * 🌱 **Greens' Conundrum** : The Greens may be shut out if Labour partners with NZ First. However, they would likely support the government to prevent a right-wing coalition, despite their ideological differences with Peters.\n  * 💼 **The Left's Silent Struggle** : The left avoids discussing the possibility of a Labour-NZ First government, knowing it risks alienating their base. However, polls indicate that without NZ First, their chances of winning are slim.\n  * 🏛️ **Peters' Paradox** : Peters plays to both left and right interests, supporting policies like wage increases and social protections while opposing cultural liberalism. This makes him a viable partner for either side.\n\n\n\nRead More\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
