    Dealing effectively with political journalists is somewhat important
    and Du Fresne quite correctly calls this out on Luxon. But, more
    importantly Luxon and his mates are staring at poll numbers that
    should be concerning to them.

    National's poll numbers are well down on election results. That sends
    a very clear message to Luxon and National but there is no sign they
    understand what the message is let alone what needs to be done about
    it. Luxon is too much of newbie to have any personal insights on
    this. He does not understand the difference between personal and
    political popularity - that political popularity comes first and
    generates personal popularity.
