More than 40 per cent of people want NZ to recognise Palestine

This weekend, the foreign minister will leave for New York to take part in the United Nations General Assembly, where it's expected he'll reveal New Zealand's position on whether to recognise a Palestinian state. So far, we're lagging behind partner countries like Australia who've already declared that they'll use the event to recognise a Palestinian statehood, and more than 40% of voters think New Zealand should do the same. The latest RNZ-Reid Research poll tested public sentiment about the government's response to the conflict in Gaza. Anneke Smith reports.
