Prime Minister Bill English has risen in the latest poll, as Labour leader Jacinda Ardern's momentum appears to have stalled. Labour leader Jacinda Ardern appears to have hit a speed bump in the latest Newshub Reid Research poll as National's Bill English claws back ground to get up to 47 percent. The poll had National up four points from a week ago to 47.3 percent while Labour was down slightly on 37.8 percent. The last Newshub poll in early September had National still ahead but starting to slip on 43.3 percent while Labour was up to 39.4 percent. Tonight's poll follows a concerted attack by National over the lack of clarity in Labour's tax policy.
