		<description>For GhostWWNZ - #2

NZPA

Sunday 24 February 2008, 5.59 am

MEETING CANNED

The reported meeting between Defence Minister Phil Goff and a number of Labour MPs identified from the parties right wing has been postponed.

&quot;It would send the wrong message&quot; Mr Goff said.

The last few days has seen the release of two opinion polls showing the gap between National and Labour has widened to between 19% and 23% and a rumoured third poll which has Labour support dipping below 30%.

While is is doubted that Mr Goff has the numbers to mount a serious challenge to Helen Clark there is increasing disquiet among Labour Party activists over their ability to reach out to the voting public.   &quot;No matter what we say, they&#039;re just not listening.   It&#039;s as if they have made up their minds already&quot;.

		<description>Helen&#039;s party polling will have reported their own poll disaster numbers ....so she&#039;s a  believer by now.

Helen will fall on her sword if this sort of polling remains for the next quarter or 5 months.

You know Cullin will be throwing very significant tax cuts at you NZ taxpayers afore 6 months are gone.....don&#039;t you?

Not trival few hundred bucks stuff....major cuts.</description>

		<description>Blair, I&#039;m glad you recognized yourself in my comment.  The best thing you can do id go back to ACT and ensure they get 5% of he party vote.  In that way you can be useful.</description>

		<description>Adolf... You really are a mindless party stooge aren&#039;t you?  And accusing me of being an ACToid is silly.  I&#039;m a current financial member of the National Party.  I want to see National do well.  But I caution the folks in charge that they are not going to get there by offering the same policies as Labour.  Do you really think that Labour are just going to lie down and take it?  Did they do that last time?  No, and no.

The point of being involved in politics, as I repeat ad nauseum, is to CHANGE THINGS.  I really really want to know what Key would change.  Please.  Pretty please.  With sugar on top.  What would they change Adolf?  Do tell us.  I can&#039;t figure it out.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Labour’s problem may be that voters simply are not listening to them anymore&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Turnabout is fair play, as they say. The government stopped listening to the people a long time ago.</description>
