Surprise, surprise -John Key is pushing for a shared currency with Australia.

The UMR poll reveals 49 per cent of New Zealanders favour a shared dollar, against 41 per cent of Australians.

That is a dramatic change since 2000 when only 29 per cent of New Zealanders supported such a change.

“The convergence of trying to bring the two together could be quite rough on the smaller party,” she said.
