The media would have us believe it's a matter of time until Robertson is leader with Ardern his sidekick.

If so Labour are making a big mistake. Why? Simple. Not everybody in caucus supports Robertson - look what happened with Cunny when he didn't have the full support. The leaks, the infighting etc will continue. They need someone completely fresh.
Secondly, like it or not, the elections are a popularity contest for a reasonable number of NZ voters. The average NZer is going to vote for Teflon John over 'the gay man' in the next round of political idol because they have more in common with Mr Key.
Looks like it might be 6 more years.
Maybe I'm wrong. But maybe not.
