I don’t think this dick knows how much of a dick he is being here, but I suspect social media are about to let him find out…

PM’s wedding stoush: Jacinda Ardern and Clarke Gayford given $5000 bill, jilted venue owner Robin Pierson says dealings ‘insulting’

Jacinda Ardern has cancelled her wedding venue and the angry owner says the Prime Minister won’t pay a $5000 fee.

…the desperation for association to the biggest wedding of the year reeks throughout his bitter tantrum that his shitty food could compare to Peter Gordon’s is such a spectacle you can’t look away.

That the local provincial pub Titan thought he could compete at a function of this high standard and paint that as priggish shows a level of arrogance that can only be fostered in the deepest end of the Little NuZilind stagnant cultural stillbirth.

It’s the fucking Prime Minister’s wedding for fucks sakes you douche bag of a man! What ever she fucking wants for her wedding she fucking gets!

Who the fuck are you to insert your ego into this???

She saved the country from a pandemic, a volcanic eruption and guided us through our worst terror attack on record!

If she wants fucking Gordon Ramsey and Jamie fucking Oliver to cater you make it happen, not throw a tantrum and then run and tell the media.

It’s incredible, he’s managed to make Samantha Markle look gracious and charming.

I don’t think this is going to turn out the way he had hoped, and it’s magnificent to watch.

UPDATE: And here’s Slater peddling the story 4 days ago…

…why is the NZ Herald printing Slate hate gossip again?

  2. Slow news day. It’s got “poor me” written all over it. Fuck the venue owner and their ego. I wonder how many more cancellations their going to get? They did it to themselves. Ce sera

  4. Prunella P loves you sometimes, Martyn Bradbury – with the exception of the headline this is excellent! The bumpkin should have been grateful for the reservation. i had heard from family that the kitchen conditions are not great. It is a beautiful place but obviously the owner knows little about efficient management. NZ’s tabloid media have picked this story up and danced gleefully with it. That won’t augur well for the future of this establishment.

  5. I couldn’t agree more with this post. Far too much reportage of whining attention seekers these days. Cheaply produced and entirely meritless “news”, or more correctly, clickbait.

  6. Down to tough dealing. How much to cover your costs, preparations, time set aside, and to close the matter off along with your gossip?

  7. Cool now maybe Robin can rebrand the bushmere arms back to being the Hika pub Bring back the leopard and lion brown on tap get rid of those organic gardens put the bar Leaners, pool tables and juke box back in and don’t forget the gear meat pies in the warmer!

    • Yeah, his mental health is much better now that he’s back to his right wing diatribe. His followers should be so proud.

  9. I have no idea what the policy of this company normally is. But if others have to pay for cancellations, then so should the PM. I don’t like the “rules for thee, but not for me” nonsense that is becoming increasingly common among the “elites”. If this dude is doing this out of pure saltiness then my opinion would change however, but Jacinda getting out of paying for a cancellation just because she is “Jacinda” is just as lame as Mike Hosking getting free meals at Sky City because he is “Mike Hosking”.

    • Did you read the sentence where he said he can charge any cancellation fee he wants? Go back and read it again.

    • “But if others have to pay for cancellations, then so should the PM. I don’t like the “rules for thee, but not for me.”

      An interesting way of looking at things in a world where the ACT sort of people want things to be about individuals and tailored for them not about the whole group being treated as one.
      Like employers having individual personalised contracts. Which means that individuals dealing with that venue negotiate their own specific deal. That’s not “rules for thee, but not for me,” surely, but “the rules for us.” Thee? Negotiate your own.

  11. I agree the dire state of NZ’s hospitality, where mediocre food and service and ego collide with individualism.

    I’m sick of paying wage subsidies for these types of businesses and sadly the end can’t come soon enough for me after sampling some of the terrible levels of NZ service and food quality that have burgeoned under neoliberalism. Before, if you were bad at your business, you went bankrupt, now so many find various ways such as labour scams or extra fees, to keep going. Many tourism businesses are just a lifestyle for folks.

    But saying that, if Jacinda’s team were not clear they didn’t want the catering part, then mucked them around for a while with dates etc, could be justified for a cancellation fee.

    In NZ the customer is not always right, the business is, after all.

  12. Meh. Like ‘Vaxxathon’ I’ll be avoiding the news on the day of the wedding therefore I couldn’t give a rats who is there, who is the chef and where it is.

    It is a sad state of affairs when this is ‘the big story’ and is a poor reflection of our country and our media.

    That said it will be a struggle to have it this year given we are likely to have restrictions and an explosion of covid cases.

  13. Raising children is hard enough with out being a Prime Minister. It’s just plain disrespect. Trust me it’s cool though. This love affair got everyone twisted because they’re inconsistent. They don’t care about anything, except themselves.

    There will be no red weddings.

    • It still gets lost on the right wing lunatics and anti Jacinda brigade, you only need read The Kraut’s little tasty as evidence.

    • Chefs used to be our number 1 ‘skilled worker’ category thus a plethora of poor food, low wages and hissy fits if they don’t get their own way, probably now overtaken by crims and 501’s as NZ favourite woke lobbying cause to get the social bonds and charity donations flying out the door.

  15. Perhaps a few who are unhappy with the status quo could consider selling up and moving offshore? That would have the dual benefits of increasing housing stock and the average IQ of the nation.
