Labour learnt the hard way with Greens that bedding with that party lost them votes which ultimately got them kicked out of power.
Labour seems to be only learning now (again) that NZF & Winston are toxic but the grubby-politician that Cindy has become is determined to tough this one out - which will rub off on her.
Advice to Cindy:
You sleep with dogs, you get fleas. You sleep with a gigolo, you wake ups ith a gigolo - the gigolo does not change into a husband in the morning.

Ducking and diving, making a total mockery other pledge to be a relentlessly positive, accountable and responsible leader - just another grubby hungry for power politician is Cindy.

While I am not a fan of Labour I would hope that we all can be mature enough to disagree based on policies instead of just trashing the other side by character assassination. It sort of feels nice to live in a country where both alternatives still sort of are acceptable (though not a fan of Bridges neither), instead of having to pick the least worst option - which always seems to go wrong as the UK and the US clearly show. Lets keep the mud in the pit, shall we?

Hard to feel any sympathy and sorry for Cindy although she looked like she was ready to burst into tears a few times as the journalists (especially the female ones) drilled her on Winston.

The political commentators are coming out in force scolding the PM for lacking backbone and being scared of Winnie. This time John Armstrong : https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-...ters-whos-boss

"It's not affecting the ministries he's responsible for, so why should she become involved, she asks? It's the bigger, donations picture involving the Serious Fraud Office that she should worry about, because it's only a matter of time before this will affect the Government she's responsible for. The monkey approach shows who's really in charge, but she can't forever remain deaf, blind and mute to what's going on around her - the longer she floats above it the more she's seen as a snowflake."
She IS a snowflake - and the more she attempts to protect the toxic Winston, the more she will be revealed to be that and the better for National.
And voters are rapidly coming to the realization she is BUT another grubby politician :

“Delivery has been the biggest issue for this government. They have failed on delivering on their big promises of inequality and housing,” Edwards says. “Labour may struggle to mobilise their fanbase come the next election; people are beginning to suspect this government is more interested in style over substance. And the gloss has definitely come off Ardern.”
Housing? BIG FAIL.
Equality? BIG FAIL.
Rule of Law? BIG FAIL.
Keeping promises? BIG FAIL.
No Tax increases? BIG FAIL.
Maori issues? BIG FAIL.

And this is not corruption?
Lobbying to get law change and donating $55k to NZF via the foundation so that the donation did not have to be disclosed.
