Cam Slater: Is That Desperation I Can Smell?

Nothing says desperation quite like concocting a scenario that has never happened in nine elections under MMP. Yet here we are, just six days out from the election, with National screaming and ranting that we could have a second election if they can’t do a deal with NZ First.

Mike Hosking: Second election call - Panic? Or a plan?

In a sign the campaign has gone way too long, the Labour Party are spending their precious energy banging on about National's tax policy.

They are suggesting they are now falling apart and are doing this, mainly because they don't want to talk about their record.
