Roy Morgan continues the misery for Labour

The latest Roy Morgan NZ Poll shows support for John Key’s National-led Government is virtually unchanged, down 0.5% to 57.5% comprising National Party 52% (down 1%), Maori Party 3% (up 0.5%), ACT NZ 2% (unchanged) and United Future 0.5% (unchanged).

Support for Opposition Parties is 42.5% (up 0.5%); Labour Party 32% (up 2%), Greens 6% (down 2%), NZ First 3.5% (up 1%), The Progressive Party 0.5% (unchanged) and Others 0.5% (down 0.5%).

If a National Election were held today the National Party would win easily.

Phil Goff is doing a fine job nibbling away the lead National has, at this rate he should be Prime Minister in about 10 years

    Um at this rate Labour will be ahead of National in about 7 months. A 2.5% 2 party swing is not to be sneezed at.

    Bit by bit …

      Tired of felching over at the Standard are you ?

    Isn't it remarkable that NZF is polling on a nominal par with Maori Party and ACT?

    • http://waitakerenews.blogspot.com mickysavage

      If you think of the performance of the MP and ACT no but otherwise yes!

      • Stopped Clock

        My point was to underscore the fact that National is riding high on its own, and is way out in front of competing margin-of-error "parties". Cold comfort for you lefty loons huh?

        In which context methinks its time to move the MMP cutline up to 10 percent and so free up the money spent on the likes of the current shower of the mp, act, greens and the jim anderton party for child cancer.

    keep believing mickey ya have faith like a mountain……..keep believing…..and buy ya some cheap wine for election night 2011…….gotta have something to dull the shock of hitting reality head on…………aren't you secretly disappointed that Phil Goof has been such a low – impact 'leader'? Kinda like low-impact exercise – like walking to the fridge is gona increase ya fitness – same with the current labour leadership blabbering on incoherently with no vision or plan is their recepie for political fitness – equals duh.

    Three things labour needs to understand……..integrity, honesty, reality…………but will they? Nah not til they lose in 2011 & prob 2014. But keep believing mickey (ga ga ga goo goo ga blaba)

    Whale started this. He said "at this rate he [Phil] should be Prime Min­is­ter in about 10 years".

    This is patently not true. At the rate of two party swing Labour will be in Government next election.

    Is there a possibility that Winston might give Rodney a right royal fucking in election year?

      He might disagree with how that is phrased, but there is every probability that Winston is coming back stronger than ever.

    I am astounded the Green party support continues to hold up and I suspect that is due to most of their supporters not fully realising its Marxist bent these days; time for the Government to introduce Green supporters to Green MPs (if you know what I mean?)
