A new political party has emerged on parliament's lawns.

About 2000 supporters of the Destiny Church-led Freedoms and Rights Coalition staged another anti-government rally at Parliament.

Its leader Brian Tamaki put himself at centre stage, announcing a new coalition of three parties called Freedoms NZ.

National Party leader Christopher Luxon has previously been asked by media if he'd work with fringe parties - but there hasn't been a firm answer.

Luxon spoke to Susie Ferguson.
