  • =?UTF-8?B?8J+Hs/Cfh78=?= Jacinda Ardern On Graham Norton

    From Lawrence =?iso-8859-13?q?D=FFOliveiro?=@ldo@nz.invalid to nz.general,alt.politics.media on Sun Dec 14 23:25:52 2025
    From Newsgroup: alt.politics.media

    Who else saw last nightrCOs Graham Norton show? Among the guests were
    Jacinda Ardern and Seth Meyers. We saw a short bit of rCLPrime MinisterrCY, the doco put together by Clarke Gayford, where in Parliament Question
    Time, after Ardern has explained about health measures, Simon Bridges
    makes some remark about rCLShe doesnrCOt do the economyrCY (as if that should take priority over saving lives), and Ardern is quite clearly stung by
    this.

    When asked if she would encourage younger people to get into politics, she
    was firmly in favour. Besides a discreet comment about international
    politics having rCLshifted gearrCY recently (with a suitably discreet response from Meyers), she was still clear that much could be achieved by political action.

    While the last paragraph in the post is accurate it is not new. Far better politicians have said so.
    As for the rest - she deserves our contempt not our attention.
