Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand

Arden got a strong result through the power of her personality, but her shortcomings were on policy. Trying to deadball, or run on the right of too many issues, including immigration, budget austerity, the introduction of a capital gains tax, privatisation and climate change probably ensured her popularity didn't reach the heights she could have. They clearly sought to take the John Key model of having a charismatic likeable leader with policy as a second thought that they didn't really make the policy as inspiring as it could've been.

Hopefully it will be rectified for 2020, because New Zealand desperately needs change from its current direction.

What a **** up this is going to be. NZ First hate the Greens and The Nationals have done a great job in office. This government won't see out its full term!
Would you like a tissue for your issue? For starters, it's NZ.. only Barnaby Joyce cares. Secondly, they are just NZ.

Yes they have. Don't you remember when Bob Brown was PM and Juliar Gillard was the Deputy PM?
I'm not convinced either Winston Peters or Bob Brown would be flattered by your comparison. It's interesting that someone I would label a populist right winger has sided with someone you would label the lefty. Modern politics is very confusing.
 
Will the floodgates open again as Kiwis leave New Zealand in droves for Australia?

Maybe it will go really well and a lot of them will head home. Take the riff raff from Christmas Island as your first intake.
 
Just another typically plasticine labour pollie.

Awful degree, staffer, stint with Blair, President of the international union of socialist youth blah blah

They just change the faces

Another piece of medusala's post-Brexit dream falls off.

It builds up due to the moderation of this forum. Anyone just right of center isn't allowed to get anything off their chest without fear of reprisal! ;)
Pretty sure you guys have been doing it for a long time. The reprisal is when you do stupid s**t like blame all muslims for terrorist attacks. Hence why you have your own thread to espouse those opinions.

If you could actually eloquently make your points with evidence rather than hearsay, it would be great. Then we could actually have a discussion, but that never happens. It's usually troll posts or people posting articles that come from Right-wing shock jocks who have zero evidence behind them.. like the Birther movement.
