Then again, statistics are like that.

To recap, though, the most recent polls (i.e. in the past eight days) have had the following results: Lab +9, Lab +0.5, Nat +7, Lab +3.6, Nat +2, Nat +6. So, a pretty big variation.

Nandor showed up on a scooter too, seemed to be having a ball meeting and greeting. Havn't seen any National MP's around this election. There was one National guy in a very sharp suit trying to give out pamphlets the other day but he looked like a bit of a prat by himself in the rain being ignored.
