Chris Hipkins: Labour leader on the party's poll numbers and election campaign

from Election 2023 · host Newstalk ZB

Chris Hipkins is accepting responsibility for the party's falling poll numbers.  There's now a 14-point gap in support between the incumbent party and National according to the latest Newshub-Reid Research poll.   Labour is down to 26.8% while the Nats hit 40.9%, and both party leaders are on 22.5% for preferred Prime Minister.   The Labour leader told Mike Hosking that the polls are not where they need them to be, and they have a job to do to turn them around over the next five weeks.  He says they have to campaign on their policies, claiming a lot of people are yet to register what they're putting forward.  Hipkins says they'll also be campaigning on the risk of a change of government.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
