It's relatively easy to lock down a small isolated country like NZ compared to Australia. But due credit to her for having the guts to do so. Now on to the hard part, rebuilding a decimated economy.
On the other points: Yes definitely - credit where credit is due.
Credit previous labour and National governments for the low debt and unemployment,
Credit the current Labour government for borrowing to fund super, and

Nothing to do with a woman in charge but THIS woman & her incompetents in charge. If only NZ has an Angela Merkel.
And thank you for highlighting another huge failure by Comrade Cindy to deliver - Cutting Immigration Numbers!
"Prime Minister-in-waiting Jacinda Ardern last tonight said she expected those numbers to be cut by 20,000 to 30,000 per annum. Its coalition partner New Zealand First, which has also lobbied strongly to reduce immigration numbers, has set the lower target of 10,000 people a year."
The record shows:
Net migration in 1st year of office - 49,127 (Oct 2018)
Net migration in 2nd year of office - 52,447 (Oct 2019)
Oh dear, what happened?
Net migration under National was 54,535 to Oct 2017.
Another extraordinary Cindy's non-achievement.

Not wanting to stoke the fire, but while on the topic... I seem to recall during the election campaigning there was something Jacinda promised and said that 'if she couldn't deliver, she would resign'. From memory it was around child poverty or something like that. Does anyone else remember that or did I completely make that up?
I just wanted to check in on how that promise was going (if it even happened).

Why stop at Child Poverty, fill your boots on broken promises and failed public policy and this from 9 months ago.

Cindy's response to job cuts at the Warehouse.
She's angry! Surprise, surprise....Retailers who were shut for 5-6 weeks are badly hit. I thought Deb Morris was possibly an outlier, but Cindy's just confirmed she has no idea of the real world either.

They did receive large amounts of taxpayer money so some commentary is justified. The lacklustre alternative would have been worse since they would have given them more for no results or delivery.

Possibly. Its the inconsistency of the anger from our Cindy that is a bit over the top. Plenty of other businesses also got tax payer money and they have not been selected for angriness.

Hitler was loved by most Germans during the 30's
A well-respected German historian has a radical new theory to explain a nagging question: Why did average Germans so heartily support the Nazis and Third Reich? Hitler, says Goetz Aly, was a "feel good dictator," a leader who not only made Germans feel important, but also made sure they were well cared-for by the state.
To do so, he gave them huge tax breaks and introduced social benefits that even today anchor the society. He also ensured that even in the last days of the war not a single German went hungry. Despite near-constant warfare, never once during his 12 years in power did Hitler raise taxes for working class people. He also — in great contrast to World War I — particularly pampered soldiers and their families, offering them more than double the salaries and benefits that American and British families received. As such, most Germans saw Nazism as a "warm-hearted" protector, says Aly,
Now I'm not saying Jacinda is hitler like or anything like that ....but many see Jacinda as our protector
