New Zealand Prime Minister has announced she's standing
down no later than 7 February saying " she no longer had
enough in the tank," to do the job.

She's done her job with intellect and strength. And she knows
it's time to go. The lady became the world's youngest female
head of government when she was elected Prime Minister in 2017
at the age of 37.

And she's led New Zealand through a tumultuous time.
The CIVOD pandemic. A series of disasters - including the
dreadful terrorist attack on two mosques in Christchurch,
and the White Island volcanic eruption so we have to believe
her when she says:

"This has been a fulfilling 5 and a half
years of my life.
But it's also had its challenges, among an agenda focused
on housing, child poverty, and climate change. We encountered
a ...domestic terror event, a major natural disaster and a
global pandemic followed by an economic crisis."

My fondest memorey and one that made the deepest impression
on me was when Jacinta Ardern appeared behind a podium to
deliver a statement a few hours after the terrorist attack. The
whole world listened to what she had to say.

Her acknowledgement of the fear and sorrow of the Muslim
community did not end there. She hugged the victims in
Christchurch, wearing a black headscarf as a simple show of
respect. She gave people a unifying cry - "They are us!"
And addressing Parliament for the first time a few days
later, she made a small but bold statement by her opening remarks
with the Islamic greeting - "As-Salaam-Alaikum."

And she combined this show of empathy with promises of concrete
legislation and cultural change.

A few hours after the attack she announced a clamp-down on the
country's lax gun laws "within 10 days"
and promised a "weed out."

To me she was a kind but strong, empathetic but decisive,
optimistic, but focused - and that you can be your own kind of
leader, - one who knows when it is time to go.

She will be greatly missed!.

"Jacinda Ardern was a dreadful prime minister of New Zealand who failed in substance but succeeded wildly in image. All her economic instincts were bad, and all her strategic instincts were bad. She had a great desire to undo productive economic reform and remove or shut down the engines of economic growth for what should be a nation of limitless opportunity. She had one genuine achievement. She reacted with dignity and moral seriousness to the appalling Christchurch terrorist massacre....

In substance, Ardern was a flop. She didn’t do the things she promised to do when first elected in 2017. She promised the government would build 100,000 homes, it built barely 1000. She was a big cheese on climate change, but New Zealand’s emissions, before Covid, went up. Public service emphasis was meant to focus on the regions of the country. Instead, all the power, and many more public servants, went to Wellington. Ardern talked a good game on human rights in the abstract, but under her leadership, New Zealand was a tiny, frightened mouse when it came to Beijing."

On top of this, the NZ queen of woke has legislated eye-watering strict environmental standards that will impose huge costs on farmers, banned negative gearing, put in place an effective capital gains tax on housing, and confiscated water delivery systems from councils and handed them over to a Māori co governed body that has enraged local councils.

On top of this food, inflation is now at about 11% and the country is entering a recession.

SM you fail to give a reference for the above diatribe, let me help you out;

According to Uncle Rups gutter press, 'The Australian'

When you cut and paste words like Maori you need to correct otherwise they come up as Māori

Fear not. Like the previous failed NZ PM, Helen Clark, a lucrative job in one of the myriad internationalist organisations (UN, UNHCR etc etc) awaits. Ardern was a good and loyal globalist, prepared to sublimate NZ's interest to global and/or CCP interest, and that loyalty is always rewarded.

Give it a year.

You mean like - Peter Costello, Mathias Cormann,
Christopher Pine, Joe Hockey, et al?

Where's Josh Frydenberg? Didn't Tony Abbott do a
stint in the UK?
