National’s real headache is the boat anchor called Luxon, weighing down what should be a straightforward path back to power. If the Nats want to turn this around, they might need to look hard at their leadership choices.
The centre-right holds the cards for now, but Luxon’s personal ratings are a drag that National cannot ignore much longer. If they do not sort him out, the next poll might be the one that buries them.
One has found where rock bottom is, the other is laughing all the way.

Luxon needs to wake up and start delivering or the party might find itself facing more than just bad headlines. The voters are sending a message and it’s high time National listened.
If the opposition won’t opposition, at least the press is filling the void. But for National, this is a wake-up call. Ignore it at your peril.
If Luxon does not turn things around quickly he might find himself on the backbench sooner than he thinks. And for the left, the infighting needs to stop before it costs them everything.
If the polls tighten further, don’t be surprised if the grand coalition talk turns into reality. New Zealand politics just got a whole lot more cynical.
At some point the National caucus will have to wake up and realise that voters are allergic to Luxon and, as they look around their caucus meeting, they are seeing dead MPs walking.
This poll shows the centre-left can govern on these numbers and, with NZ First rising, Winston Peters might hold the keys again. But for National, it is time to wake up or face oblivion.
This poll is a wake-up call for Luxon and his team. They need to shake off the complacency and start delivering results that connect with everyday Kiwis, especially the young women who are turning away.

Buckle up, New Zealand. It’s going to be a long, smelly ride to the polls. But hey, at least we’ve got options. Sort of.
Time for National to wake up, ditch the deadweight at the top and fight like they mean it. Otherwise, enjoy the view from the opposition benches come next election.
Are they only outraged because a conservative took them at their word?
