Friday Faceoff: Ben Thomas and Nick Leggett talk polls, water bills and winning Lotto - Wellington Mornings with Nick Mills

A new Curia poll has seen Labour overtake National, albeit by a very slim margin. Is it realistic to think Labour could form a government after next year's election?

Also, despite soon having a new water entity, Wellington's water bills from the second half of this year will be the equivalent of $50 a week - and by 2033 the bills will reach $20 a day. Can Wellingtonians afford this? 

To answer those questions, former Porirua mayor and Infrastructure NZ CEO Nick Leggett and political commentator Ben Thomas joined Nick Mills for Friday Faceoff.
