It was lucky for National that Grant Robertson scored an own goal when he declared the Labour Party would change its election campaigning to avoid angry voters. Because Chris Luxon couldn’t hit the open goal with his retort.
Luxon said he was glad New Zealand was still a place where voters could come up to speak to him in the Koru lounge, on flights, and well… just about anywhere like that. That’s a perfect illustration of the need to craft your messages, lest your limits show through.
