We Will Fight Harder in 2017 – Steven Joyce

The National Party’s campaign manager Steven Joyce told TV One’s Q+A programme he has not experienced a loss in 10 years after a disastrous result last night in the Northland by-election.

“You learn a lot from your losses as well as your wins,” says Mr Joyce.

“I actually thought Winston would struggle a bit more than he did. But for a range of reasons, he did well,” he says.

“We will actually fight harder in 2017. I think, in a funny way, it is not what we would have chosen, but we will make it helpful to us in terms of actually getting better results”.

Q+A, 9-10am Sundays on TV ONE and one hour later on TV ONE plus 1. Repeated Sunday evening at 11:35pm. Streamed live at www.tvnz.co.nz

Thanks to the support from NZ On Air.
