The second of Newstalk ZB's leaders breakfasts saw NZ First leader Winston Peters, Green Party co-leader James Shaw and Act Party leader David Seymour discuss their election campaigns and what they hope to achieve if they make it into Government. 

Mike Hosking grilled each leader in half-hour interview slots.

Winston Peters' $100 bet with Mike Hosking over support 'surge'

Winston Peters believes he can bring his party back to Parliament.

New Zealand First is polling below one per cent - with new Colmar Brunton research due from 1 News tonight.

But Peters told Mike Hosking he's seen a surge of support for his party on the campaign trail.

He says people can laugh, but that surge will bring him home - despite the dirty fight they've faced.

James Shaw disappointed Greens couldn't bring in a capital gains tax

James Shaw said any suggestion the Greens are anti-farming is simply untrue.

The Greens co-leader says his world view is hugely shaped by his mother's family, who farmed in Bay of Plenty for five generations.

He told Mike Hosking farmers come in all shades -- and many understand where the Greens are coming from.

He says there are major innovators, and others who are doing things the way they were done 100 years ago.

Shaw adds there are then those caught in the middle, just making ends meet.

David Seymour confident End of Life Choice Bill will make it over the line

David Seymour insisted he doesn't have any bottom lines for this election.

The leader of the Act Party is confident he'll make it into Parliament alongside National.

Seymour claims every party has to make alliances and sit down to discuss what they want.

He told Mike Hosking they have a lot of policies, but Seymour says even larger parties can't promise policy - because they have to get their partners to agree.
