The National Party copped a bad result in the latest Newshub-Reid research poll, however some, including the party, are calling it a rogue poll for its stark contrast to other numbers.
In the poll Labour sit at a healthy 60 per cent, while National sit a lowly 25 per cent.
Political editor Barry Soper says leader Judith Collins will show her caucus their numbers from internal polls tomorrow, with her intention being to show how close they are to 40 per cent.
Meanwhile the Government has injected a shave under $52 million into foreign education to help a sector that has struggled since the borders were shut.
But Mr Soper says none of it is going to Universities.
"[The Education Minister] Chris Hipkins was asked about that, he said Universities can stand on their own, they won't be falling over. It's the education system at state level, and the schools that are suffering the most it would seem."
