    Newshub have done one of those stupid word clouds again. They really are the dumbest of dumb polls. You might recall that in 2020 Simon Bridges (still National leader) was labelled "dickhead", while in 2017 Jacinda Ardern's included "teeth". Such fine contributions to public debate.

    In the latest version, Ardern's is remarkably favourable, considering this is the same poll that showed the drop in Labour's support. Luxon is still Nowhere Man ("making all his nowhere plans for nobody").

    That word cloud story was utterly pathetic, even by their own idiotic standards. By far the most visible words were positive for the PM, yet they zoomed in on the tiny loony fringe ones like 'evil' and 'dictator'. Was that the same 'journalist' that is having a dalliance with the ACT staffer?

        For a long time I thought she was Chris Bishop's other half. 😮

        But its six to one and half a dozen of the other really. Bed hopping around the Pollie mansion and media damsels with their flowing hair and pretty smiles (but questionable talent) getting together with pollies and senior staffers is par for the course. A sensible voter takes what most of them say with a large grain of salt.
