supplied Asbhurton mayor Neil Brown said the phrase Whatever it Takes had been under utilised. “No-one that I’m aware of uses it that much,” he said. “There’s been a bit of banter around here, saying Ashburton ‘the heart of the Mainland’.” Although an updated slogan had “not really crossed his mind”, Brown did not rule out a new phrase in collaboration with the regional tourism space. “It may be a combined effort to see if we do have a catchy wee slogan to be used in the future which would replace the ‘Whatever it Takes’.” When asked about Jo Metcalf’s phrase ‘Sea to Ski’, Brown said it was “catchy”.

Not only that, her personal ratings are now down to 8%. A trio of other figures on the right make up almost that amount among them – Act leader David Seymour, National aspirant Christopher Luxon, and former leader Simon Bridges, in order of their ranking.
