    I have no idea what Luxon stands for except self ambition, certaintly not his own Christian moral beliefs, because apparently they can be set aside as a politician.

    I had no idea what Simon Bridges stood for either, nor Muller nor Winston Peters as he will change his attack point depending on the direction of the wind.

    Collins was obvious, like Peters she wants the baubles of power.

    Seymour at least its obvious, he stands for white enriched privilege.
    Day,, Prey tell me again what did/does Arden stand for.

    Chloe is exactly the same but probably worse.
    Equality, the environment, social justice, investment in health, education & police.

    You may not agree with how Labour went about it & they certainly made unrealistic promises but they delivered far more than NACT did in 9 years in their 6, but admittedly cocked up far more as well.

    Mind you that's not hard, Key was the ultimate spin master, nothing to see here, so nothing to do. Oops better go be seen with Dan & Ritchie so the nation thinks I'm cool.

    Charge sheet information has just been released to the NZ Herald. Ghahraman faces three charges of shoplifting.

    She had been due to appear in court tomorrow, however the hearing has been rescheduled to February 28.

    She is charged with stealing $691 worth of clothing from Wellington’s CRE8IVEWORX store on October 22.

    The charge carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison.

    Will it likely be Home D for less than a year for this on a vast wad of feel good excuses tossed in ?

    Daytr, Dont forget the Ch-Ch earth quake during the last Nat govts time $30,000,000,000 unbudgeted cost to the N Z govt of the day ( Nat ) who did a pretty good job of funding that without blowing the budget and not loading up the people on N Z with a massive debt not like the last Lab govt who loaded $120,000,000,000 with next to nothing to show for it.
    NEVER FORGET THE LEFT IS A LIE !!

    Well said, an excellent summary.
    Ardern led the country brilliantly through 3 major crisis including a world leading response to the Global Pandemic & , got Trade Deals worth billions, passed our Climate Change Response (zero carbon) Bill plus a number of policies to directly tackle our carbon emissions , banned new offshore oil & gas exploration, led initiatives to eliminate terrorist & extremist content being posted online, introduced key child & family support policies, supported employees & companies during a period of global uncertainty, outlawed semi-automatic military style assault weapons, increased Superannuation, Student Allowances & minimum wage, passed the Equal Pay Amendment Bill addressing pay inequity for women, was hugely influential on the World stage for NZ, & so many other initiatives & achievements.
    She also had the rare honesty & integrity in a politician to step down when she felt she it was right.
    No one's denying there were mistakes, all govt's make mistakes & waste money, but the world has changed enormously in the last 6 or 7 years & NZ has not been immune & faced enormous challenges.

    Anyone that has a statement at the end,.never forget the left is a lie shouldn't really be taken seriously, as it signifies a closed mind.

    Yep CHC earthquake was a biggie & so was selling of 50% of the power companies at a tuppence of their worth. Biggest shell game played in NZs history, transferring tax payer assets to the already wealthy.

    And don't forget Labour had the CHC massacre, White Island, the aftermath of the Kaikoura Earthquake & a once in a century global pandemic & cyclone Gabriele.

    NAFT wasn't so transparent on their overturn of smokefree 2025. Didn't campaign on it & yet it was one of the first things they did.

    So easy to see that words, platitudes, promises and high sounding intentions rather than deeds are what matters with you woke leftists.

    Just remember this :

    "You can fool some of the people all of the time

    &

    all of the people some of the time

    but

    you cannot fool all of the people all of the time."

    Ardern was found to be all words and no deeds, all spin and no delivery.

    Very very revealing of what kind of dumbos who voted for her based upon her words!

    Speaking of no substance your post is pretty much lacking in it.
    I defer to Blueskies post for some of the list of achievements undr Ardern.

    "Ardern led the country brilliantly through 3 major crisis including a world leading response to the Global Pandemic & , got Trade Deals worth billions, passed our Climate Change Response (zero carbon) Bill plus a number of policies to directly tackle our carbon emissions , banned new offshore oil & gas exploration, led initiatives to eliminate terrorist & extremist content being posted online, introduced key child & family support policies, supported employees & companies during a period of global uncertainty, outlawed semi-automatic military style assault weapons, increased Superannuation, Student Allowances & minimum wage, passed the Equal Pay Amendment Bill addressing pay inequity for women, was hugely influential on the World stage for NZ, & so many other initiatives & achievements.

    Hopefully you find my posts helpful, but in no way should they be construed as advice. Make your own decision.
