But there are Known Knowns.
We know there are rumours.
We know people in National are spreading them & discussing them with journos.
We know Bishop has been accused of being behind it, & that some in National want us to think it's all over and Luxon rinsed him.

These are Known. Not much else is.

I genuinely don't care who heads the National Party; I've never voted for them, and it's their policies I disagree with, not their leadership independent of those. But it's not a good sign that they're suffering from a deficit of public support and can't agree what to do about it .

The whole story is “The Tories promised something insane to impress racist pensioners when there was no need, then absolutely fucked it because they had never had to campaign *against* the press”. Everything beyond that is just details.
