In this episode of StraightTalk, we discuss: the latest political polls, the good news for Luxon, the announcement today from Chris Hipkins that only he seems surprised at, and will the media finally put the Opportunity Party under scrutiny or continue to give them a free pass; the panellists also make their predictions for the election outcome; we debate the electoral system of MMP and whether we should return to the old system of ‘First Past The Post’; is it time for a referendum on not just MMP but also the three-year political cycle; and finally, should politicians have limited terms of, for example, four terms equivalent to 12 years – or should it be simply up to the voters to determine the length of political life in Parliament.
