    i hate when women play the misogyny card; after all wasn't she 'adored' all around the world? Many people just don't like her and she gave many of us good reason for that. Her gender has nothing to do with it.

      Eh historically women make kinda crazy rulers.
      Gender probably does play into why she acted like she did but it's no excuse for why people hate her. If she was a man the masses would probably be more riled up. She played onto the fact she was a woman from the start and tried to push this weird gross "mother of the people" thing, she probably knew no matter what happened she can play a victimhood card.

    I voted for her but could not have imagined the amount of division and hurt her policy's would have caused. She just didn't listen and was far from kind. She didn't look after us as a faithful caring steward should have and consequently caused a rift in the fabric of society. If she had been open to alternative points of views and found ways to help collaborate and cooperate to help move things forward then I would have held more respect for her. But as it were we had none of this. I won't miss her and hope we will find someone who can give us hope and bring unity to this great country.

    How inappropriate to liken Jacinda to Big Norm.
    Norm Kirk remains my favourite PM from my lifetime (now in my seventh decade). Next is Bill Rowlng and strange as it may sound the next is Rob Muldoon. None since those three have shown any particular love for our country or its people, preferring to put their energies into self aggrandisement, and, in the case of the Labour leaders, pursuing a program that places NZers down the list of their concerns, while following programs set by the UN.
    Jacinda Ardern by contrast with Kirk has been the least caring, despite her posturing, and in my lifetime the worst PM ever. No other New Zealander from my recollection has brought such loss of freedoms and none has caused more death.
    Jacinda Ardern is the opposite of Norm Kirk.

      It was just more excuses and not getting to the point that Jacinda and her Govt largely failed at everything they attempted. Everyone wants to take a deeper dive into this but the fact is that she failed mainly due to promotion on sex, race agenda and not ability, it was doomed to fail from the start like most pie in the sky socialist ideas.

    We had no voice! Ardern had propped up the MSM with millions and then owned them thus ensuring she only got good press... on top of this she only spoke to her so call "accredited journalists" Ardern speak for "my puppets" who knew not to challenge or ask the hard questions and always give great press... The several brave journalists true to their profession who did speak out and question received a lot of flack and a great deal of pressure from Ardern... she refused to be interviewed by them and refused to appear on their shows. If you were caught speaking out or questioning you were labelled as a "hater or hate speaker".... This is terrifying as we used to be a democratic country with a free press and freedom of speech - until Ardern came to power - it is everyone's democratic right to question a non performing government going back on all their mandates. ... this is New Zealand not Russia... I think the most frightening thing I have heard her say... do not believe anything that comes from any other source, believe only me... I am your single source of truth!" She has wrecked our economy, brought every sector down on its knees, brought apartheid to our country, on and on . A very dangerous socialist - we need a leader with a vision, forget about grievances of 170 years ago, get the country moving so we can be proud of our country once again ....but then .... we must BE KIND!
