Green Party co-leader and government minister James Shaw admits he's always disappointed in New Zealand First, after RNZ revealed the coalition partner won't support Auckland light rail before the election.
The project, which would see light rail built from Auckland city to the airport, was a core promise of the Labour Party going into the 2017 election.
But it is a promise that's set to be broken as Labour would need coalition partner New Zealand First to get it through Cabinet - and that won't happen before this year's election.
RNZ political reporter Katie Scotcher has the story.
