Fairfax score the front benchers:
- John Key 8.5
- Bill English 8.0
- Steven Joyce 8.0
- Andrew Little 7.5
- Paula Bennett 7.0
- Grant Robertson 7.0
- Jacinda Ardern 7.0
- Kelvin Davis 7.0
- Winston Peters 7.0
- Jonathan Coleman 6.5
- Annette King 6.5
- Amy Adams 6.0
- Phil Twyford 6.0
- Chris Hipkins 6.0
- Russel Norman 6.0
- Te Ururoa Flavell
- Christopher Finlayson 5.5
- Metiria Turei 5,5
- Tracey Martin 5,5
- Simon Bridges 5.0
- David Seymour 5.0
- Carmel Sepuloni 4.5
- David Clark 4.5
- Gerry Brownlee 4.0
- Hekia Parata 3.5
- Peter Dunne 3.0
- Nanaia Mahuta 2.5
I should mention that I strongly disagree with a few of these ratings. Christopher Finlayson at the same level as Tracey Martin is ridiculous, and they seem to be judging Hekia Parata on her 2012, not 2014, performance and achievements.
