That's exactly what the point that I was going to make. I mean, it's so ridiculous with opinion polling at the moment. We talk about 0.2%. I mean, this every poll has a statistical margin of error of 3% plus. I think this one's got 3.1%. And we've got them going up 2%. Well, 0.2, I'm sorry. They should be cracking the champagne corks. But basically, what it says is what the poll poll uh said the other day is that the uh three coalition partners that are currently in government, they'll be returned to office, even though it won't be as comfortable as the last um uh taxpayer union curior poll uh would have us believe that was the one last month. We're going to get them now monthly, obviously. We've been getting them monthly for ages. Well, yes, I know. I know that it's election year, you know. But um, yeah, Labour would uh under the current this current setup get 41 seats, so it would still be the biggest um party in Parliament, uh national, even though it went up 0.02 uh 0.2%, uh it would get 39 seats. New Zealand first will get 15. Now that sounds a lot for them, but don't forget first MMP election in 1996, they got 17 seats. So that's not the highest they've been. The Greens, please, on 12%, honestly. Um they've taken a bit of a uh bounce back, uh bounce, I mean backwards, not not forwards. Quite drop. Though eight, uh they'd get eight seats. And to party Māori, it's a load of rubbish, of course, because uh these polls always take it that uh the Māori Party are going to win five seats.
