Best wishes to Covid patient, mother of a pre-schooler, and Prime Minister of a country, Jacinda Ardern. That’s a whole hell of a lot you’ve had on your shoulders these last few years.
Best wishes to everyone writing advice to the Prime Minister about winning the next election, because that seems to be the narrative now: they have a mighty opposition bearing down on them - even though it's Christopher Luxon I mean please - and the numbers say they're in trouble so what do they have to do?
The advice appears to be: do whatever tap-dancing it takes to entice the unreasonable and the unreasoning, and never mind your bold dreams and high principles. Politics is the art of the possible, so here is a list of What Makes Middle New Zealand Uneasy. Do we see what’s right at the top? Yes!
Change.
And what guidance do we take from that?
Not too much change if you don't mind, ideally not any actually. Cheers.
