A recent series of advertisements placed by National MPs in Auckland seeking electorate votes and not seeking party votes show that central control of National’s campaign and discipline are completely lacking.
National’s new job-creation scheme appears to be inconsistent with their desire to fully re-instate the 90-day trial period.
Rookie National MP Dan Bidois has chosen to get up early and count the number of cars using Northcote’s T3 traffic lane.
With five days to go the Northcote by election result is far from settled. And a surprise may be on the cards.
The difference between running a professional well organised campaign and a chaotic shambles can be slight.
It looks like the National collective has doubts about Simon Bridges’ pulling power.
There was intense competition this week. Paula Bennett with her attack on Jacinda’s Spotify playlist almost won but Northcote candidate Dan Bidois succeeded for managing to talk out of both sides of his mouth at the same time and only confusing his tongue.
Dan Bidois has formally launched his campaign by blaming Auckland Council for the last Government’s shortcomings, and opposing the regional fuel tax while at the same time insisting that if there is intensification then it needs to be paid for.
