Well, I don't think it's helpful, some of these statements, and that is what it is. Equally, you know, I have been critical of New Zealand First in recent days and he'd say that that's probably a pain. So all of that goes on. What we are very focused on is strong, stable government. And there's a little bit of my mind, Mike, that just says New Zealanders are not interested in this argy-bargy. They are focused. On actually are you managing the economy well? Are you going to get us through this crisis? How much of my grocery is going to cost next week? That's what I'm focused on. So I just sort of sigh and say this is just another silly debate about nothing. Everyone wants strong, stable government. There is no crisis. We want to keep the coalition going well. We're going to deliver a good budget next month. We are governing this well, making good decisions. Of course there are debates behind the scenes. That's not a news flash.
