@Tregaskis now the standard are praising Gower and he calls Turei a legend on the left.

The Nats will hope that the electorate see them as stable custodians as opposed to stale fuddy duddies in the face of these fresh faces in opposition (assuming Turei walks). It remains to be seen how much it moves the needle come election time but perception can win or lose you an election these days

Yep, and be careful on here. This forum tends to be a bit centre/centre right -- who here picked the Greens to increase their vote over Meteria's DPB admissions?
If Jacindamania can last 5-6 weeks, it's all on due to the big advance voting that goes on these days. Will be interesting to see how the glow lasts when there are actual debates, and when policies are discussed. So far it's been a cult of personality.

Isn't that what politics has evolved to now? John Key was constantly in the limelight, he was very good at handling the media whereas Bill gives the impression he doesn't really care for it. I mean he's barely in the regular news cycle. Some might say that is a good thing but it doesn't capture the attention of wavering voters. I have a couple of individual sources that say English is a funny engaging guy in private but this doesn't translate. Trump showed how far public perception can take you

@canefan following the Turia debacle and this apparent 'Jacinda effect' he will have no option but to front up more.
He needs to show a pulse. He should ask Shag about improving his media profile

You could float a warship on the amount of wanking off over Ardern. It's all a bit revolting on Stuff. Anyone would think she is the lovechild of Clark and Savage with the wit of Lange in his prime.
English needs to be a bit careful. I think we've seen more than a few major votes around the world this year that have been decided on perception and emotion, not fact or logic.

I think I've come up with a word to describe the fatigue one suffers from reading too many columns on Ardern:
Jaundicinda.

I see on planet rugby they are posting all sorts of innuendo about Paula Bennett but none of them actually have the balls to post what they got sent on facebook. Reminds me a bit of the rumour about Helen Clarks husband that was doing the rounds back in about 2006 , everyone who told me it insisted that it was true and they had a really reliable source .
Personally I think the rumours you really want to be true are the ones you should be the most wary of particularly if you got them on facebook ffs. -
