Shane Te Pou: Shane Jones ' has a good chance' to take Northland seat

Shane Jones has been announced as New Zealand First's candidate for Northland.Jones is set to go up against National MP Matt King who currently holds the seat, a battle that is tipped to decide this year's election.Political commentator Shane Te Pou gives Jones a fair go."I think there might not be a dead deal on the table, but Willow-Jean Prime is likely to be the Labour candidate, might just tone it down a bit."I think he's in with a shot."Mr Te Pou believes, like Party leader Winston Peters, Jones has enough of an image to win over the public."No he's not a Winston, but he is a high-profile in his own right - born and bred in the far North."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
