Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I whakaekehia e Ed Balls i tenei ra a George Osborne i runga i te pouaka whakaata ora ma te akiaki i a ia kia whakaae ki te whai waahi ki te tautohetohe mo te kaupapa o te ohanga. I whakamatau nga Tories ki te tohe e kore ratou e matapaki i te whakaaro o te tukinga i waenga i nga Kaanara-a-Kanana kia oti ra ano te tautohetohe a nga kaiarahi - kaore pea. Engari i te putanga tahi ki BBC One, ka akiaki a Mr Balls i a Mr Osborne ki te wiri i te kirimana, e whakaara ana i te tūponotanga koinei anake te tautohetohe pōtitanga pouaka whakaata i waenganui i nga rōpū e rua i mua i te ra pōti.

I kii a Balls ko te Pirimia a David Cameron ka " mataku " ki te korerorero takitahi me te kaiarahi o nga mahi a Ed Miliband engari kei te hiahia ia ki te whakaatu i a Mr Osborne.
