This appeals to a left leaning xenophobe like me.

Considering the national interest before selling nz assets to the world, could be the pathway towards isolationism and away from globalisation. Uncomfortable for those that believe private individuals will make a better decision than a govt appointed organisation. Good or bad who knows.

Why the star dust has well and truly disappeared - an inability to govern and show who's boss.

Do you also get your information from Mike Hosking, Leighton Smith and talk back radio? Sounds more like an attempt to fill up some time and space rather than news. I guess their job is to keep viewers/listeners engaged. Trying to create news from nothing must be difficult.
Mike Hosking called it early after the election

I don't see Ms Ardern as power hungry, though she pretty much fits most of the other above epithets IMO. I do think she was thrust into a position she was unprepared for, and seemingly wasted her years in opposition doing not much at all.
But there she was in the spotlight and voters loved her. Probably enough still do to give Labour a decent shot at leading the next government. So she has the Labour powerbrokers keeping her front and centre, whether she wants to be there or not. Have to say she doesn't look too happy at times, and makes a hash of too many media interviews. Might be very happy to go back to opposition.
You'd better verify your statement with facts otherwise you'll be the adjective yourself just like the trump like national party whose modus operandi is say something three times and it becomes gospel. Have you really been sucked in, you at least GIVE the impression of an independent thinker.
This is fantastic for NZ and seems to be overlooked by many, i rejoice at it.
"Announcing the move, associate Finance Minister David Parker said the new powers would include:
- Protections for ports, airports and communication infrastructre
- A "call-in" power over sale of strategic assets like military technology firms and defence suppliers
- Extend sustainability and water quality considerations to water bottling investment
- The tests could also apply to "significant media entities"
- Overseas investments in farmland must show substantial benefit to New Zealand
- Lift corporate penalties for non-compliance from $300,000 to $10 million
He said the moves were consistent with global best practice and would apply to all overseas investors, irrespective of where they come from."
At your request, shifting the narrative away from 'body shaming & bullying' of the grubby one as to why she is currently hopelessly lost in a fog of indecisiveness and contradictions - the star dust has been replaced by dirt dust from the u-turns and hypocrisy she has presided over.
The turning point for most was when she lied about her knowledge of the sexual assaults on females by one of her staff - poor thing did not know what to do so decided to lie!
