Former labour minister and ACT leader Richard Prebble's weighed into the post-election debate.

He says both Chris Luxon and Chris Hipkins should be resigning.

National currently has the numbers to form a government with Act and New Zealand First, but this could change once special votes have been counted.

For the first time ever, neither National nor Labour has secured more than 30-percent of the party vote.

Prebble told Mike Hosking that this is a damning result for Luxon and Hipkins.
