American readers would probably add an Oxford comma to that list... which should also be subject to extreme punishment.

When I was at school it was called sociology and the teacher who taught it was an out and out fascist who talked about eugenics and race science.

I’m yet to be convinced about that. Sure, support could firm up. But with poll samples of just 1000, the difference between 4.7% and 5% is blurry And we’ve only seen one poll to date with Top over 5%.

This is the kind of thing those dusty PC repair shops in remote shopping strips can do for peanuts and in an hour or so. Take it in, find a cafe to wait in, drink far too much coffee and pick up your laptop... job done.

It's another con job.

If the Labour Party showed those images, one a day, between now and the election, it should romp home.

Is that a euphemism for masochism?

Why are you showing pornography?

I can’t see Luxon being Prime Minister this time next year even if the right coalition wins this years election. If he loses he is out full stop. If he wins, National will need someone competent.

I think the real plan is to get people into subscriptions that they feel they can’t cancel or their digital world will fall apart

My fear is that it’s likely to be Alan Partridge.

Here's the thing about Shane Jones that many people have forgotten. He is a wanker. We know that for sure because we got the invoices.

That's outrageous.

That's taking the Micky. When we buy Asian takeaway in Auckland ~$80 gives the two of us at least three meals each. It's another story entirely if you buy from Uber Eats... is that what you did?

I can’t fully explain why, but on current showing I don’t think the Greens are going to have a good election result. It won’t be bad, but nor will it be anything special. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

Sure, but he’d have a fresh look even with his Pep-trained eyes. Of course this is entirely guesswork until the season starts. All bets could be off by October.

You’re right. He is the nearest thing to a continuation. But I can’t see Arsenal doing it again and Liverpool don't look ready.

The answer lies somewhere between these points: 1. Other Premier League clubs have finally figured out how to beat Pep. 2. Haaland is great, but with that kind of centre forward City were no longer playing classic Guardiola style and that created vulnerabilities.
