BOOM – New TVNZ Poll – Labour could lead Government
Latest TVNZ Poll and it’s clear, Chippy has lifted Labour while Luxon has sunk National.
The Greens bounce back for no reason whatsoever. Interestingly none of their MPs appear in preferred PM rankings.
Māori Party and NZ First and ACT all rise.
I suspect Farrar has picked up a different vibe because of how qualitative his polling is.
The danger for National is that the last polls over polled National by 6 points and under polled Labour by 4 points.
As it becomes clear to National voters that Luxon will lose, the right will throw their weight around ACT.
I think the Greens will wobble and the Māori Party will surprise.
I’m not convinced NZ First is back now. The antivax culture war stuff and Māori bashing is very twee in comparison to the the issues confronting us.
People want to know how to pay for food and living. If a Party doesn’t have a clear answer to that, the froth won’t stick.

Frank the Tank A middle-aged woman with a live-in partner, child, domestic help, good income, and police protection, telling all the single elderly living alone not to talk to their neighbours, was the most callous uncaring leadership since Sid Holland’s in the 1951 watersiders’ strike.
The 1950’s called, and they want you to stop appropriating their values.
Luxons kept his powder so dry it will never fire a shot.
That’s quite a dry observation
He’s probably all coughy n snotty now, with covid

No, he does not have covid as reported, the last 3 polls have resulted in his caucus muzzling him.
Payrises are safe for the moment. So is our health care system, and the rest of our public services, and living standards.
Boom! Zap Zowie Kapower! It could happen, but it won’t happen overnight – as Rache told us over a few split hairs
It’s going to take a bit more than Labour and the Gweens pulling themselves together. But the signs are good. The natives are getting restless
Greens 5 .7 in one poll 11 in another most of the others are pretty consistent. 7 days can be a long time in politics 7 months no one can judge how it will go . I would say the only certainty is it will be close and it could turn dirty.
With National involved, there’s always dirty politics.
Nicola as prefer PM, is interesting. She is definitely the best debate r in the house and is basically baby sitting Luxon. So could easily put him in child care and become leader.
I’ve been considering voting TPM. I’ll never vote Green but Labour needs to get back to its core policies – the poor, working classes, social policy. Fuck the Rich-Rights
