Hi Keith not so much falling over, but in the run-up to our elections
in a couple of months the leader of the National Party was filmed by
a member of the news media trying to get into a go-cart with very
high sides a couple of weeks ago. He found this very difficult, and
look extremely awkward. This incident has been re-played a few times
on news/review programmes since then, most of the comments are
lighthearted, but there has also been a more critical undertone in
some.
I don't think that it will necessarily cost him the election, but it
has been significant.
Cheers Carol
