Gone By LunchtimeThe SpinoffAll episodes
Final polls, pervy trolls, and our predictions
Hyperventilating, overheating and sometimes just plain cringe-making, the 2026 election campaign is at its end. Annabelle Lee-Mather, Ben Thomas and Toby Manhire gather at the final hour to assess a week on fumes, with Don Brash and Michael Laws leading the way, a major scandal over the status of an Opportunity Party van’s warrant of fitness, and a flurry of final polls to parse.
Plus: impressions of the final multi-party debate and 100% correct predictions about what will happen on Saturday night.
