Jacinda washed her hands
I’m sceptical we will see any significant policy differences from a Jacinda Ardern-led Labour Party compared to what we have seen in the past 30 years. Will it be about beneficiaries, the working poor, eradicating child poverty, the living wage and housing for all? I don’t think so.

Jacinda’s first announcement ‘Let’s do the bleeding obvious’ – where the Greens must now move
Jacinda’s announcement is of course a wasted opportunity because all Labour are doing here is gentrifying the public transport system faster than National will. It’ll go down like a drunk in a brewery with the train spotter anorak club at Greater Auckland but if all Labour are offering is a gentrified public transport system so Simon Wilson doesn’t have to have smelly poor people rubbing up against his corduroy jacket it’s a wasted opportunity.

Dear Labour – We don’t need a new ‘Maori Prison’ we need less prisons!
Watching the Kelvin Davis and Jacinda tango on the weekend current affairs shows was insightful. While it’s nice to have a new tune to groove to, it is also horrifying that they are copying the exact same dance moves as National.
