Once Deputy Leader of the Opposition, now _Leader_ Leader of the Opposition, we catch up with the increasingly busy Jacinda Ardern. Between transport policies, new slogans and placings of potential coalition partners, is there time left for the local rugby club? (A: Yes. Yes, there is.)

In the latest Colmar Brunton political poll, Labour hit a low of 24 percent. With Andrew Little admitting he considered resignation after the poor result, where would that leave Jacinda? And with most political polls relying on contributors having a landline, are they a dangerous dinosaur to be heeding?

Jacinda talks to Mikey about spitting her dinner out over Andrew Little's 'dick swinging', 'blowhard' comments; Metiria's brave (but possibly foolish?) WINZ admissions; and the good press that _sometimes_ follows some good political ideas. Sometimes.

Major political party election posters have been released and, in a possibly uncharacteristic campaign turn, both Jacinda _and_ Andrew Little feature on Labour's party hoardings. It sounds as though Jacinda's well aware of the dangers inherent in plastering one's mug on signs about town, but does she think she and Little could make the jump to being good real estate agents?

After the National Party conference, what's the Labour verdict on English's speech? (Spoiler: not great.) Talking tax, party promises and the De-Barclay-le, it's the Deputy Leader of the Opposition, Jacinda Ardern.

Immigration policy reception, a Waterview walkthrough, and diplomacy in the face of Mike's call for head-rolls: it's the Deputy Leader of the Opposition, Jacinda Ardern.

Housing policy: what to make of Labour's 'back end of Moscow' or National's 'complete schmozzle'? Jacinda's got the word.
