The Bull Ring

POLL: National party on just 29% support Jacinda on 65% Just to piss the right wing nutters off The National Party has dropped below 30 per cent in a UMR poll, while Labour has reached as high as 55 per cent. And when it comes to preferred Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern has reached a near record-breaking 65 per cent approval rating. Her popularity eclipses that of her National Party rival, Opposition leader Simon Bridges, who is on a mere 7 per cent. . . It is understood the poll, obtained by the Herald, was conducted by Labour's polling company UMR for its corporate clients, who paid UMR for a monthly snapshot of the political scene. The poll was taken between the 21st and the 27th of April - while the country was in the level 4 lockdown. At 55 per cent, Labour would be able to form a government by itself. But speaking to the Herald, Bridges rubbished the poll. "UMR are Labour's pollsters and are consistently, badly wrong." He ad

US government orders 100,000 new body bags as Trump lies about situation The federal government placed orders for well over 100,000 new body bags to hold victims of COVID-19 in April, according to internal administration documents obtained by NBC News, as well as public records. The biggest set was earmarked for purchase  the day after President Donald Trump projected  that the  U.S. death toll  from  the coronavirus  might not exceed 50,000 or 60,000 people. . While Trump minimizes the toll, government orders 100,000 new body bags https://t.co/oslpt5J8ED — Geoff Bennett (@GeoffRBennett) May 1, 2020 .

Jacinda Ardern asks private sector to 'value your workforce' the way Government has The Prime Minister is asking the private sector to "value your workforce" during the COVID-19 crisis, highlighting how the Government raised the minimum wage and boosted the pay of some public workers since coming to office. Jacinda Ardern was asked during her daily press conference if the Government would consider making all essential workers on the COVID-19 frontline earn the living wage, but she did not  answer the question directly.  "What we have been doing - for instance in our nursing workforce - is working hard to see their wages lifted and that's something we've been doing since we've been in Government," Ardern said.  "Equally, I would say the same for people who are cleaners in our schools - that work we've done to see their wages lifted," she added, in an apparent reference to the minimum wage increase that came into force on

Trump erupts at campaign team as his poll numbers slide “I am not f—-ing losing to Joe Biden,” he repeated in a series of heated conference calls with his top campaign officials WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump erupted at his top political advisers last week when they presented him with worrisome polling data that showed his support eroding in a series of battleground states as his response to the coronavirus comes under criticism. As the virus takes its deadly toll and much of the nation’s economy remains shuttered, new surveys by the Republican National Committee and Trump’s campaign pointed to a harrowing picture for the president as he faces reelection. While Trump saw some of the best approval ratings of his presidency during the early weeks of the crisis, aides highlighted the growing political cost of the crisis and the unforced errors by Trump in his freewheeling press briefings. . . Trump reacted with defiance, incredulous that he could be losing t

Coronavirus: Winston Peters says New Zealand and Australia 'beating the crap' out of Covid-19 Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters says New Zealand and Australia are “beating the crap” out of Coronavirus. Meanwhile, he says a trans-Tasman border bubble with Australia could happen at level two and become a model to the world. But he warned it would not work if quarantine was required. Winston Peters warned an Australian trans-Tasman border would not work if quarantine was required. “We can open the border on the basis there is non transmission in both our populations. That is the secret of success we aspire to and the reason we floated the idea of the trans-Tasman bubble in the first place.” The bubble could become a reality as soon as it was possible to guarantee safety and security on both sides of the border, he said. . .  “We are working on that now.” “It is not a question of just having a bubble with Australia but how much activity that is happeni

"Thats what we do in Australia. We take your ideas and call them our's" TV hosts tell Winston Peters Australian TV hosts joked about stealing New Zealand's ideas in a light-hearted interview with Winston Peters as he tried to sell the idea of a trans-Tasman border 'bubble'.  Allison Langdon, co-host of Australian breakfast TV show  Today , asked Peters if he had spoken with Australian authorities about travel and business opportunities between Australia and New Zealand amid the COVID-19 pandemic.  "I recognise that idea - it was mine," the Foreign Affairs Minister replied.  Karl Stefanovic, co-host of the TV show, joked: "That's what we do in Australia - we take your ideas and make them our own," to which Langdon added, "We steal your people, too." . . Peters said the idea came from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) in New Zealand and that it was put to the Australian media who then put it to
