Some of you are such snobs.

Compromise? Not according to the charismatic one - she stood on principles and won the election on that basis.
And nothing tells us more about how grubby she really is than the sexual assaults in the Labour Party she pretended not to know or notice - bad news, see so her natural instinct is to wish it away.
Nothing worse than a hypocrite - and that's the true character of the grubby Hijab* wearing one. She will say and do anything for votes.
Plenty of disillusioned young voters ready to show her next year that they are not the suckers she thinks they are - once bitten, twice shy.
* hijab - symbol of oppression in most Muslim countries
So who did the grubby one consulted again regarding wearing the hijab?
Before you answer, I am not bluffing when I wrote that I personally know those* who represent the Muslim community in NZ.
* And they are genuinely sincere individuals who simply want to practice their faith in peace (unlike those in other countries) and are actively involved in steering their youth away from radicals.
So now it is the Christchurch Muslim community?
Actually, her PR team (taxpayer funded of course) talked to a few Muslims - not those who truly represent the Muslim community in NZ.
I actually spoke to one of the leaders who was in India at the time (on business) to offer my support and condolences.
He flew back (courtesy of NZ government - and it was the right thing to do) to help co-ordinate the Islamic community response to the massacre.
And yes, they were very very pleased with our grubby PM wearing the hijab - after the fact.
It is the majority of the hoi-polio that determines the election outcome. Hoi-poloi means no more than 'the general population'. It is not a derogatory term; neither by the way is 'commoner'.
My point is simply that the charisma of a candidate accounts for so much in any public election.
e.g. if the next all black coach was appointed by a public vote it may well go to Scott Robertson, based, not entirely, but to a large extent on his break-dancing.
Given that the incident happened in Christchurch I figured you’d be smart enough to realise I probably meant the Christchurch Muslim community. My apologies for over-estimating your intelligence.
I get it. You despise Jacinda, everything she says or does. That’s your opinion which you are entitled to. I have no issue with you expressing your opinion, even though I completely disagree with it, but I do have an objection to your choice of vocabulary. Is there really any need to use words like “grubby?” You are simply lowering yourself to Trumpian level by resorting to those kinds of personal attacks.
I was looking at it as the dictionary does, but if that’s not what you intended, fair enough.
