New Zealand prime minister starts campaign with a sleepover at the ‘folks’ in the small rural town of Waikato

The rescheduled general election, now taking place on 17 October, is unlike any the country has seen before, with party leaders hitting the campaign trail in face masks and practising social distancing.
