    'Compassionate': Jacinda Ardern ranked world's most eloquent leader.
    Professional development coaches compiled a list of the world's most eloquent leaders and Ardern topped the list after being praised for her empathy.
    "Jacinda Ardern employs an empathetic leadership style. She challenges the common perception that emotional communication shows weakness, instead choosing to approach the public with softer touch," the Development Academy wrote.
    "She has a measured and authoritative sincerity about her – she is kind and compassionate, without shying away from tough issues."

    Three of the leaders named in the top five are women, with German Chancellor Angela Merkel named as the second most eloquent leader, ahead of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in third place and Canada's Justin Trudeau, who was ranked fourth.
    Scotland's Prime Minister Nicola Sturgeon was ranked fifth, with praise for her response to the Covid-19 pandemic as well as her humour.

    "Jacinda Ardern for example, is a sincere and compassionate speaker, while Nicola Sturgeon is very engaging while demonstrating empathy."
    Although there are only around 10% of women in leadership roles worldwide, female leaders make up 50% of the top communicators."

    So all the top World leaders are from Commonwealth countries but lets throw Merkel in there to give a little credibility. No bias there of course. Too funny

    Have a look who completed that survey? This "Development Academy? wtf, has only been around for about a year or so. What are they? Who are they?

    Jacinda eloquent? With her possidivvidy....


    The real question should be, why are the Herald even publishing this BS? Big loss of credibility for the Herald.

    Less than 12 months - good catch, blackcap on the insidious forces at work out there - the woke pixie dusted crowd pushing the style over substance narrative out there right along as per usual.

    The giveaway of the hidden agenda is Modi who has been encouraging Hindu nationalism & divisiveness to the detriment of minorities in India.

    You have misquoted him which says more about your state of mind. You refuse to be hoodwinked by facts preferring your own fantasy.
    It is your story that is made of pixie dust. Your comments reflect your feelings but you project them onto others. You are the cynical one not Jacinda.
    Stand aside, moka and let tim23 explain his comment 'Employers who claimed the wage subsidy are beneficiaries too aren't they?'

    I am sure he is capable of explaining his comment without you twisting and turning ever each way and tying him up in knots. You are not doing him any favors.

    He doesn't need anyone to do him any favours. His comment is correct. Any payment made to anyone by MSD is a social welfare payment ie: a benefit of some kind.

    Moka has tried to help you find a different perspective to the tunnel visioned view you are obsessed with. Moka has way more patience than I do. If you could actually discuss rationally, without total reliance on repetitive catch phrases or name calling out downs, we might all actually be able to have an adult debate. Everyone has given you the opportunity to do that, but all we ever get is more of the same Trump Twitter like ranting. Ad infinitum. Surely you can find an alternative place/forum to hang out with like minded people that would better serve your political agenda, and need for validation, than this one?

    Tim23 does not need you either to explain.

    Or does he?

    See this is what you do. Never actually respond in a mature way. You simply deflect. There is no substance to your posts or to your replies to others. Baiting people seems to be your "go to" when you have nothing of any significance to say. Which is why you always end up back on ignore.

    They certainly are more experienced at talking.

    Popular does not = good for the country.
    Woke - you stole from Hosking and Pixie dust from Bill English so who is the one without original thought now? As for the Hitler comparison its not only weird but distasteful -I'm surprised the site Moderator hasn't given you a Red card.
