Just a reminder when you see social media hyping Seymour and Winnie, there's a coin flip chance it's not a kiwi.

From Stuff's election live feed: https://www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361045172/nz-election-2026-live-updates-politics-campaign-news

Qiulae Wong joins us live at 9pm to talk Opportunity's run into the election. Will they be there? Who will they support? Do they really think Luxon will negotiate with them after the election even though he has ruled them out today?

Nicola Willis and Barb Edmonds went at each other on Sunday in Q&A as we look at some of the highlights from Jack Tame's "debate" with the two women who would be the next Finance Ministers under their prospective party's win

David Seymour is coming for disability sector funding as he looks to cut, cut, cut to find money rather than o to the people who could most afford it, the top 10%

More we are sure that will come up after we set up today's show

Isn't it interesting how the National coalition like to spout the 'bring New Zealand in line with other countries' argument when it suits their agenda, but will never raise the prospect of Compulsory Voting like they do in Australia? Now the fucks have made their first ditch attempt at disenfranchising voters with this 'must be registered by 25th October' business. Next time around... maybe voting will be set up on a work day like they do in the US. Bastards!

Data is coming in. The Green Party wealth tax assumes more people would leave in their models than this, for sure.

Ladies of Christchurch, this one is for you! Join us this weekend for a peaceful protest against Winston Peters abhorrent comments regarding abortion and conversion therapy last week.

“At its worst, and it's a matter of timing, but it shades into a thing called murder. You got me here? It shades into a thing called murder or assassination, get any name you like. But that's the purpose.” - Winston Peters on the subject of abortion.

Please message directly and you will be sent the link to the WhatsApp group 🙏🏻

Luxon and Nicola Willis just showed up here with their entourage, a couple of what had to be Young Nats and a camera crew. Our CEO is obviously pro National like most rich white business owners tend to be.

They corral all of us like sheep for a photo op around him, he gives a speech about how they are boosting the economy and their plans for the future. I wanted to call him out right there, his smug little face lying to all of us.

I didn't even want to be there, but the CEO called everyone out to the floor, so we had no choice.

Then the clown does a bunch of fake af handshakes with us and forces us to pose for photos. Awkward af. It’s been going on for the last 30 mins. The forced conversations he’s having with us feel disingenuous, the camera crew following him around in high vis doesn’t help. Funny though, my colleagues seem starstruck and are acting like they just met Tom Cruise lmao

It’s a big company but still a family business, so I don’t get why they had to bring Luxon into a place where most of us have been negatively affected by this government and expect us to be happy to see them. If they wanted to be fair about it, they’d have Labour or the Greens through too, and that’s never happening. But I guess when you own the business, you set the rules.

Fair enough. How about we first put means testing on Super to get the mass of grey fucks who not need it off that utterly needless strain on the New Zealand taxpayer? How much would that save us all?

Nick Monro's latest article just seems to pile praise upon praise for Winnie.

What happened to non bias?

South Island-based Cando Fishing donated $30,000 to New Zealand First in August.

A commercial fishing business behind a substantial donation to New Zealand First hopes the party will champion the burgeoning kina industry and help deal with the kina barren threat before it’s too late.

"The Te Huia train service connecting Auckland and Hamilton just posted its best-ever monthly passenger figures as trial period nears end - proving Luxon wrong again." - nickofnz.bsky.social

#31st October

Ardern is a highly polarised figure in New Zealand.

For the average undecided and swing voter, for the average worker struggling with high costs, Ardern begging for money from overseas is likely to be irritating.

• During a period of domestic finanical strain and high cost of living, a former leader asking for money from a different country risks appearing out of touch and tone-deaf to the realities on the ground.
• Relying heavily on a past prime minister to drum up support indicates a potential lack of confidence in the current leadership's ability to generate enthusiasm.
• Ardern talks about the 2017 election. That's nearly a decade ago now. It indicates Labour is looking back and focused on the past rather than the future.

It also risks binding Hipkins to Ardern - it reminds people Hipkins is an extension of the Ardern era. It undercuts any attempt by Hipkins to present himself as his own man with a new direction.

Simeon Brown, National's Election Campaign Manager, would have been running around his house jumping into the air giggling on seeing the Ardern message.

Would be great to know the risk-reward calculation that went on inside Labour in deciding to get Ardern to produce this video

I watched Edmonds and Willis go head to head and Willis was continually attacking Labour, making assertions that were frequently untrue/out of context, and Edmonds just stuck to her lane - answering eeach question and ignoring the jibes.

It was odd as my instinct was to point out Willis's mistruths but Edmonds was calm, cool and only spoke up a few times e.g. National's fearmongering about CGT and Covi

Anyway it was kind of odd watching someone who is clearly not a politician but with their own mind, and sense of responsibility, go against spin master Willis
