After warming the crowd up with a few jokes, Ardern warned of the threats currently posed to democracy around the world, and touted New Zealand as a country that has been able to overcome political divides to pass significant legislation. Ardern received a standing ovation when she talked about her country's ability to come together and ban 'military style semi-automatics and assault rifles' and to legalise abortion

Give up your guns, no dictator in history has ever made that their first move…………
a lesson on gun control..???? do your Home work Guardian,, NZ now has the largest gun crime statistics...ever... while our so called leader sits on the tonight show, Auckland has a speight of drive by gang shootings on residential homes....the gun buy back was a forced buy back, you had a time frame to hand in your guns....it wasn't optional, it cost this country millions and for what? nothing why? because the crimes didn't hand their weapons in......obviously, the gun control here was a total failure, America needs to learn from this,
Totally agree with you.
This sounds like the death of the West
This woman not only wants to control your guns but your speech as well
A lot of people might not notice the last thing she said, about algorithms in social media, but that was the most important. I come from the Philippines where a huge majority of voters picked the son of the former dictator, who has used social media to his advantage. The last thing she said was the most important threat to democracies all over the world.
The algorithm doesn't vote tho. People still have to make the conscious decision to vote for whoever it may be. And why is it only right wing candidates that are accused of using social media to their advantage? Do you actually think so called liberals wouldn't do it too??
@@collydub1987 you don't understand. This has been proven, at least in the case of the philippines, the slow trickle of disinformation that helps form the internal narratives of people. Once it clicks, facts will no longer matter. Imagine saying the time of the dictator was the golden age of the Philippines, even when all evidence points to the opposite - the preservation of the internal narratives becomes the paramount concern, not getting to the truth. I've seen this happen to people, it's shocking.
@@collydub1987 Thanks a lot.. Finally someone with some common sense.. While social media manipulation of national elections is a well known fact, the people have to actually vote to change the outcome.. While a couple of conservative leaders have used such gimmicks to come to power, liberals are by no means innocent.. If social media companies followed what Jacinda suggests, and if such algorithms to dictate where public opinion is headed, that very algorithms can be a potent weapon of a power hungry politician, liberal OR conservative.. Since silicone valley is traditionally left learning, the former is more likely.. In this respect, Jacinda's suggestion has a scary prospect on ideological domination..
Sinabi mo pa! It is extremely frustrating, even now, to think that the majority of those who voted for President Marcos (give him a chance until he proves otherwise) did so from information from Facebook, tiktok, and other social media sites.
She would know. She uses Facebook shamelessly to promote herself.
I am a U.K. citizen. I have worked and lived for a while in America. The biggest difference I saw was that in America a person takes their identity from their political orientation. To a much greater degree than is the case in G.B. and every other country I have visited. Sadly this is something in America which can and does degrades civil discourse to a point where meaningful conversation is not possible. Because I was not an American and because I spoke with a British accent I was able to maintain a politically neutral position. However, I can easily appreciate how difficult to near impossible this must be for a born and bred American. This matters because a successful democracy is based on a free exchange of ideas. It is dictatorships which censor free expression.
Sweeping generalization but ye
Lies again? GNC DBS
@@NazriB. I believe you would need to be a little more specific in the context of definition for your comment to be relevant.
Mate I'll tell you what: Your sentence structure, noun verb (dis)agreement, and word choice does not at all indicate that you're a native English speaker.
That's exactly what amerikkka is which is a dictatorship we are not free. If you speak in public about your opinion especially in the media you will receive death threats and oppression.
Calling the Christchurch shooter a terrorist and not a "gunman".. 100/100
Correct me if Im wrong, but the US law doesnt even recognize domestic terrorism and therefore US national that should be charged with terrorism and get acording to that harsher sentences get a "slap a on the wrist", bcoz their crime is not recognized correctly.
As a New Zealander, I’m very proud of our Prime Minister
You are fortunate indeed, to have her as your pm.
NZ was the first country to give women the right to vote.
As an Australian, can we borrow her?
🤮 masks don’t work and COVID was an excuse for tyranny
You kiwis are so lucky to have her.
Evil is transparent when you walk in the light.
As an aussie, I am personally proud to have her as our closest neighbour as all kiwis should be too. What a woman and what a PM.
@D F thanks and one day you will be old enough to vote too.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@D F go back to sleep old man
Personally I have never heard anything negative about Jacinda Arden. Which says a lot NZ & her personally.
@D F Time for your medicine!
Honestly, I wish there were more Jacinda Ardern's in the world! She really makes our government look utterly shameful - especially Boris Johnson. This is how you lead a country. Amazing woman!
If you want something said ask a man, if you want something done you should get a woman - Margaret Thatcher. Love her or hate her she was an exceedingly clever person who had the courage of her convictions. Boris Johnson has done more U-turns that is it laughable. You turn if you want to the lady's not for turning. Johnson was to my mind the wrong pick - I had my eye on Sajid Javid.
Have you considered running for president yourself? Maybe you could be the next Ardern.
Ha, ha, ha. Really??
Surely you jest?
@@mariafrost1762 Yes, really.
Ex-45 couldn't even dream to deliver a speech as well delivered and constructed as this. No crazy dance, no name calling, no hate, just a careful collection of well delivered words
He can’t read, he had to make his own University to approve others with his greedy incapacity for truth. Just like he made his own Social app to get validation of his lies.
Remember that he alone name himself the best at many things, he congratulated himself on many topics since NOBODY did.
Sheep
46 can't even string a coherent sentence together, yeah you know man the thing 😂
@@sjriddy LOL and 45 could?
He can’t even read without following with his finger let alone talk in full sentences.

@@RyanMiller3039 🙄 the irony
The irony of Peter Thiel taking New Zealand citizenship because he feels safer there
He got his citizenship by breaking the rules.
I can't think of anyone getting nz citizenship in 10 Days.
He's definitely NOT welcome.
he only got citizenship because he bought it from the *previous* conservative government!
Figures, freegin hypocrite.
He should never had been given a free citizenship. He even said he'd not spend any time there. It was for a bolt hole ... nothing more. Many Kiwis were not happy about how he paid to get his citizenship.
Of course it had nothing to do with taxes
She has said the much needed things which the US leaders have skipped for ages for the sake of their power.
UK & USA lack these things so much in their leadership. 😑😕
US leadership is just too corrupt for those much needed things to happen.
Yes, too corrupt on both sides (what a bad idea to only have two sides, sorry I digress).
The face of evil
tyrannical elitism?
@@HShango Or maybe the US populace values other things more than what you value, and that is reflected in how they vote. I personally see her as a horrible and tyrranical leader, so your view of her is obviously not universal.
the gift of freedom and democracy is a treasure
Yes, it is if you live in an educated and intelligent society that understands consequences because democracy expects a voter to do the right thing! hence democracy only works in a moral and educated environment otherwise you end up with revolution and people voting for the most bizarre outcomes that can even bring a country to ruins! there is nothing more dangerous than nations turning up to vote yet they either don't care for the moral outcome of their vote or have no clue what they are voting for!
freedom & democracy is a joke...
@עילג ישראלי yes they have better freedom in occupied palestine afterall
Nothing she said is grounded in freedom
She knows niether.
End campaign financing. Each runner should get equal financing from the government, an equal share of tv time and etc.
Here in the UK we do have strict spending limits, and apart from the rare 'party political broadcast', political and religious commercial on TV are not permitted.
The government should give each candidate $500. Let democracy spread the truth organically. Can't be worse than what we have now. Oh, and term limits.
@@prometheus5700 the problem with this is that candidates with means will always have a headup
@Swan F Hmm. What does that even mean?🤔
Wow, just IMAGINE having political leaders whose priority is the actual health and genuine well-being of the citizens of the country. THAT would be pretty cool.
Proportional Representation would go a long way to mitigating that. I wish we had the system in Canada 🇨🇦
You realize this woman is another WEF globalist right?
Yeah, I wish we had that in New Zealand! Too bad we don't!
This witch isn't 1 of those political leaders. Covid made her go full authoritarian
In New Zealand Jacinda is completely obsessed with empowering gangs, violent crime, gun crime, family abuse, has all risen because she believes acknowledging these issues is racist
Go New Zeeland!!❤️❤️
I so admire this woman and her leadership... she is amazing
@Johnny Rotten yea you are 🤡
Why don't you get up and wash your face you seem to be in deep slumber
Are you kiwi? because this reads to me like you aren't 😅
Yup, she'll shut your country down for one positive covid case. Truly amazing.
she is a dictator nothing more
Truly pathetic...
I have never ever heard any new Zealander blaming their country or politics according to my knowledge. In other words big respect for you madam 🙏.
We hate her she's ruining our country.
I beg your pardon? There have been protests in record numbers in NZ over the last few years over this Prime Minister and her hypocrisy.
Don't know which New Zealanders you've been listening to, but they don't represent the majority!
Her approval rating is literally 35%.
The only reason why you have never heard any New Zealander complain about her is because the media covers it all up
@@dukecarraway1762 everybody in charge right now is suffering from approval ratings. Gas, economy, war among other things is taking a toll on all countries
@UCXV4lrV2YRCvPwHTU831qlw definitely higher than Ardern's.
NZ was the first country to allow women the right to vote, due in part to the very very small population - 1893. When countries have female leaders that country tends to be far more democratic nationwide.
Men in NZ did not have the right to vote either and it was only three years after men had the right to vote that women could as well. But they don't tell you that do they?
@@johndonwood4305 that doesnt really support your argument tho...
@@johndonwood4305 So? What is your point?
Well said and a very astute observation. I love her over here and her empathy got us through a tough 2 years.
And this was ALL woman of ALL races at the same time were allowed to vote, not just white women.
Makes me proud to be a kiwi.
after she finishes her term, can we give her a work visa to be the next US president?
Why would Jacinda to lead a country that refuses to protect its people from gun violence?
The stupidity is, people like me from other countries care for more for the lives of Americans than Americans do.
Noooo - we want her first - Australia needs her too - and we're closer :)
@@michaelmacnamara1100guys she's our mother- but she wants to leave home🥲
Nice to know there is at least one civilized country left.
Other countries have outlawed assault weapons after a mass shooting, Australia, Norway, United Kingdom, among others. Here people sit back and do not let their Senators and Congressmen, know how they feel about what is going on, complain, and cry and then go on with your life. I have called many times, to people like Ted Cruz and others , but my Senators are for gun control. Those who have Republican Senators and Representatives, need to call. Speak up, let your voice be heard. Donate to those who are running this fall, who will do something about guns . Get rid of those the NRA csupports.
Just don't google anything about NZ crime, inequality etc. you're illusions will be dashed quickly. It's funny how there is growing unrest in NZ over gang violence this month and she is across the globe trying to lecture another nation instead of facing the consequences of her own fail policies. We need to stop idolizing politicians because they can speak well or stir emotions.
jacinda is the epitome of class, grace, and genuineness
Then you have the orange 45.....
🤣🤡
All those things and in bed with China
Ahh, you epitome of irony!😜
what a joke
The terrorist attack in New Zealand was brutal. People running up to the shooter whilst being killed .. brutal
Jacinda's political leadership is an example to the world, how a world leader has to be or should be!
I voted for her, twice and will again
She’s an authoritarian
Worst PM NZ has ever had, by far.
shes a tyrrant who smiles at you while taking away your rights
She's fooled you
And Texas and Florida are against every single thing she said.
They are disgusting places. No where for especially a woman to live. Handmaid's tale society.
Texas think they are Washington 😉
We now have more shootings than Ever! And Jasinister is to blame for that!
Jacinda just gave me all the reasons I need to move to New Zealand lol
Be sure to bring money. They don't allow open immigration.
@@genetacey7421 😂😂 Exactly
Just because she is a spin doctor doesn't mean you want to live under her dictatorship. Petrol is currently over $3.00 per litre (thats 4 litres per gallon). Food is unaffordable. The average house price in Auckland is over a million for a three bedroom box - are you sure you want to live here???
Our gun crime as increase dramatically since her "gun policies" which punished law abiding gun owners and let the gangs run loose with free access to guns. She's a professional spin doctor and most that comes out of her mouth is a lie.
That and finding women who resemble xena
We now have shootings all the time because of Jacinda. Our gun violence has gone up over 500%.
People that dont live in New Zealand have no idea how much grief this woman has given new zealanders , no one i know likes her.
Jacinda Ardern got the first ever outright majority under MMP, at the last election, You must know very few people indeed Adam Thomas..
@@sandralee9827 lol yer when there was the election , not now , you must not be a new zealander to understand or just got head buried in the sand and keep listening to what she knows you all want to hear.
From where I am mostly everyone has mixed views on her. We are in a very political time right now in nz
Yes, she deserves praise, but remember that she could achieve nothing without a political system and electorate that make constructive change possible.
Sounds like America's citizens need to step up and be the difference its country needs. Shame they prefer owning guns to children with better life outcomes
Thanks for the record inflation, Ardern!
New Zealand is a tiny nation with a long proud history of overachieving. This time around their leader is a world leader. A wise, strong and compassionate woman, genuinely worthy of the role.
NZ was the first nation to give women the vote.
@@wildebeeste many countries imposed lockdowns before NZ
@@devankerapa1245 “allowed to go for walks?” You are kidding, right?
Speaking as a NZlder... she is our gift to you, no need to thank us. Just one thing..... keep her.
@@horseweldon Well, I guess we could give her to the Americans. We still have Chloe Swarbrick.
It speaks volumes when the leader of a foreign country is more in touch with another country’s citizens than its own elected officials.
No, it speaks volumes to the degree of treachery within American elites when they breathlessly applaud such things that are completely contrary to the principles of the US constitution.
Oh… how would it be to live in a civilized, compassionate, progressive nation like New Zealand, with a civilized, compassionate, progressive leader?
Try living here under her, your opinion would change very quickly.
As someone who lives in New Zealand, it might feel like knowing that despite being born here you will never be able to afford to live here because house prices are absolutely insane and have gotten exponentially worse under Ardern.
Nah bro she's a 🐴
She’s a dictator
@@caseclosed9342 stop overreacting. She was voted in and can be voted out. That's the opposite of a dictatorship.
A most excellent speech, as someone whose spent time in New Zealand, New Zealanders are indeed very sensible and responsible people, we Americans could learn allot for their example, if only those on the right had the courage, instead of hiding behind bureaucratic law, protecting their wealth and power with high tech military style weapons…thank you!
You won't say that now. I live here and was in Auckland, the most locked down city in the country. She was cruel and split our society all in the name of vaccine uptake. Criminal behaviour to satisfy Pfizer for a vaccine that failed.
I quite agree with your sensible post.
Kiwis are responsible ppl-& what a magnificent country it is too!
@@patkennedy2620 indeed it is, but I hear one can visited hobbitville now,.😉
NZders are responsible and generous
How is it sensible and responsible for your PM to be leave their country amid increasing gang violence, inequality and corruption and give a commencement speech lecturing another country how it should improve itself? Seems kinda gross but she sure has made a habit of it.
Such a kind charismatic leader. Nz is fortunate to have her.
She is a World Economic Forum young leader. Why would you trust her?
@@Majestros because A W is a bot
So long New Zealand
We should be ashamed of ourselves as a nation compared to New Zealand...what a great leader and Prime Minister
I really like Jacinder Ardern. Her country is not free of problems, but I think she and her government have taken sensible steps toward dealing with modern world issues. Perhaps we could learn something from her and her country.
You are certainly correct, her country is not free of problems. In fact we have had more gun violence since she jack booted the gun control measures after the Christchurch shootings.
So that worked, NOT.
So much other stuff she gets wrong that does not get reported overseas.
As far as I am concerned, if you like her, keep her, most of us don't want her back.
She is destroying this country.
We as a country are deeper in debt than we have ever been.
She raves about climate change, then imports coal from Indonesia to run the power plants to charge the electric vehicles she wants us to buy. We had a supply of higher quality coal in the ground here but we are no longer allowed to mine it because it could be harmful to the environment.
So it must be ok to do that harm in another country right?
So many lies told to get her elected, people are finally starting to open their eyes, hopefully next election we give her the boot. It can't come soon enough in my opinion.
I agree with you Brubeck life doesn’t run on a straight line.
Amazing! These Harvard students are so lucky to be in great presence and they probably won't appreciate it for many years.
They’re rich kids, their parents are likely already around these people
Gun control? Just see what is happening in Ukraine. This is why citizens should own guns, to protect against a rogue nation which likes to invade.
Nope
🤮
The audience is all the Harvard grads - undergrads, Harvard Law, Harvard Medical School, etc.
Keep your political ideas in your own country…USA doesn’t need this type of politics
I love New Zealand. Such a shining example of what a real Democracy looks like.
Yea, they know to take Peoples Freedom away😂😂
watch their debate in the election and see the night and day differences from ours
You mean people getting poorer and poorer and killing themselves in drastically increasing numbers? She is awful
An insane unfree control state don’t know what freedom is never did
@@peterb2325 What? We let's our kids go to schools with no metal detectors, no bullying, and an excellent chance they will come home alive every day. We come and go as we please and have a say in who our officials are. Control State? We are intelligent enough to understand we don't need military style weapons to defend our ourselves. It's uneducated comments like yours that create seditionists like we have seen in the States.
The promotion of women's rights in New Zealand is astonishing.
I gree with Jacinda that the rights of humans should be protected on social media. This involves public authority and international laws.

In my opinion, Jacinda Arden deserves a noble peace prize.

It is spelled “Nobel”. I like her a lot but no Nobel peace prize is awarded for the type of actions she had done so far.
@@stephane8305 what has she done? Sorry I'm asking cz I don't know
@@stephane8305 I think her reaction to the Christchurch massacre might have made the exact right change that new Zealand needed at the time. But that's primarily for New Zealanders...I think if she keeps impressing people worldwide the way she does now, she might set an example for many other nations.
I dunno, it might take a while ..but a Nobel prize isn't completely impossible.
Social media companies are publishers. They should have to follow the same laws as paper publishers. Algorithm s should be banned.
She should be the last one teaching democracy being one of the most hated PM of New Zealand
It's time for social media companies to realize their power and act on it and be more responsible with it, AND be broken up.

Guardian going crazy, deleting all dissenting opinions. I guess that's why you are called "Guardian" then.
Grace and Integrity ... Jacinda Ardern
Not
I don't understand why it's so hard to live without a gun. I don't know anyone who's been in a position where they've needed a gun. But I do know people who have experienced loss because of irresistible use of a gun.
How was the shooter in Uvalde stopped ? With a rock ?
@Swan F Yep. You don't like the answer ?
1.7 million reported defensive gun uses last year would like a word with you about why those people supposedly don’t need their guns.
I'd rather have a gun and never need to use it than to need to use one and not have one.
Because America is to precious a jewel with too many thieves eyeing it especially those in power. for it not to be able to be protected from the citizenry
Horrifying that this many people support that absolute tyrant
oh....you mean Trump ???
Every country and state deserve the leaders they elect. But algorithms in social media do create ignorance and division in the society which selfish people exploit to become leaders.
Well my friends we aren't a democracy.
I can already tell where this thing is going
Brilliant speech from a brilliant leader
Biggest joke ever
Politicians are too vague of what they want social media companies to actually do. She made the point that they need to follow their own rules and that algorithms needs to be more transparent. The social media companies would respond "we already do this, and are always making improvements".

As a new Zealander she embarrasses me
Was every zealander forced to take the shot ??
@@theomegaman218 coerced. Aka threatened with loosing your jobs and freedoms to participate in normal society
@@relaxation-Corner wow. We have a little of that here. Unfortunately I worked for a company in the U.S that made it mandatory and I lost my job.
And I assume New Zealand could take your bank accounts like in Canada .
@@theomegaman218 I'm not sure about the bank accounts part but they gave themselves alot of intrusive powers in the name of covid and 'keeping us safe' such as entering homes without a warrant and removing people etc
A Leader in true sense with responsibilities❤
replace Leader with the word "tyrant" and then your sentence will be correct.
@@dentpeninde kiwis who pretend they’re living in an actual dictatorship are so cringe
The face of evil
Should see how we see her in nz
@@iliya1758 speak for yourself
Here comes all the Haters from National Party commenting on here🤣
Nah it's other parties as well.
It's all they can do.
All they have is luxton (misspelled deliberately) ,a man who would achieve perfection if he would only agree to have the semblance of an urethra tattooed on the top of his head.
🐑
Appreciate the haters. They are the ones that know she is better than they ever will be
That a very typical left wing reply. If we don’t agree with you, we are haters!
Her government won't declare Hamas a terrorist organisation and now she's at Harvard. She must fit right in
If the internet is a problem, just turn it off. You'll all get more done.
Unfortunately the US will never have a leader like her until big business and money are taken out of politics.
Then why did Ardern meet with big tech executives? Why is Ardern connected to the Gates Foundation? What on Earth was Ardern doing meeting with Blackrock?
Davos disciple. Pure evil.
Love that Harvard had her speak!!!
A leftist university inviting a leftist to deliver a commencement speech. Just in case the last 4 years of indoctrination weren’t enough. They didn’t exactly break new ground there.
Harvard's demographic is pretty much split right down the middle with conservatives, moderates, independents and liberals... and New Zealand is working run by a woman. How about that!
I wish we could clone this lady and make her the PM of the UK…we desperately need someone as enlightened and sensible and compassionate as she is
She's ruining NZ so I'd be careful what you wish for
You're welcome to her. Come live in NZ for a while and your opinion might change.
we wouldn't elect her. Shame on us.
@@martinharris5017 maybe but you could have Boris Johnson or worse Nardine Doris
Sorry ... Canada has first cloning rights
What a speech 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Proud of my PM. Aldo appreciate the dig at Facebook and others
FDA Refuses to Release Autopsy Results on People Who Died After COVID Vaccines
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said it’s barred from releasing the results of autopsies conducted on people who died after getting COVID-19 vaccines, but a drug safety advocate said the agency could release the autopsies with personal information redacted.
Not Genuine. I've met her. Not genuine at all
2.40 thought she was gonna say the commission found he was Australian”:))
I thought so too 🤣
The fact that he was Australian shows we are not saner in Australia, just don't have easy access to guns. If there was easy access at the time, it would have happened in Australia but instead the guy went to NZ where he could purchase high powered weapons.
We need these values and effective action here.
Sums up how much I hate politics.
As a nation we have gone backwards massively here in New Zealand. There are literally shootings happening while she been away gloating about our gun laws. She agreed to take all aussie convicts with any connection to NZ and now gang violence has gone through the roof along with cost of living.
And all I can read is comments about how great she is from people who obviously don't live here.
Kiwis are no longer praising the great and wonderful Jacinda she will not survive the next election. We have gone too far backwards.
I remember hearing her talk at Auckland University when she was just a MP and thinking I would love her as our Prime Minister. I then moved overseas but when I found out she was campaigning for PM, you bet I sent in my vote and made sure my ex pat friends and family did as well. I'm so happy to see how far she has come and what she has done for my home country ❤️.
so you're ok with your right to return to your home nation being taken from you for the last couple of years.. that and the massive increase in gun crime being seen here in NZ?
@@dsndicmsa7141 lol, I am not going to go back and forth with you regarding why I support Jacinda nor will you change my mind or I yours. Let's agree to disagree 😊.
@@martha570 what fact that I presented do you disagree with...
Me too.
I did the same. Didn't vote for her in the first set of elections. Because I was a bit sus. She proved herself and got my vote on the second run.
I'm so proud to call Jacinda Adern our leader. Kia kaha!
She's wonderful. Amazing
This is how a Prime Minister of a democracy talks. Wished if the dictator of world's largest democracy would have such grace.
Democracy? Obviously you don't live in New Zealand. She is not what she claims to be.
@@martinharris5017 She lives in a parliamentary democracy just like in Canada. What she says about how the vote system works is accurate. Up until her recent re-election in 2020, no party in New Zealand history ever won a majority government compared to how many majorities won in Canada by both Liberal and Conservative Parties. That's a reflection of how well she managed the COVID crisis more than anything else. But in 2022 where Canada has a minority parliament and the nuts of Canada declare a dictatorship, New Zealand has mostly run on minority parliaments. Also New Zealand has always been a bit more progressive than the rest of us. After all the first women to gain suffrage on the globe were New Zealanders in 1893. So for a parliament showing an equal number of men and women makes logical sense. Obviously you really do know know what democracy means if you are suggesting New Zealand does not have a thriving parliamentary democracy. Obviously stating bull without facts leads to conclusions that may be you don't claim to be who you are.
@@professorakiba434 I'm exactly who I claim
to be.
Ardern lied, openly and demonstrably. Her handling of the COVID situation worked briefly but soon fell to pieces, and the mandates and restrictions were a shambles.
She promised, in the leadup to her second term bid, that she would not enforce vaccination nor penalise or discriminate against anyone who opted out. look what happened.
In any event, threat of the largest Class Action lawsuit in NZ's history forced her to back down on the Vaccine Passport system and end it months before it was due for reviewal.
prior to this, many tens of thousands took to the streets an protest, week after week, for six months, ending with the protest on parliament grounds that was handled so tragically by our government.
I'm not interested in our country's progressiveness or history, Nor do I require a lecture on NZ's political system or its' history and current status.
I am referring specifically to Jacinda Ardern and her current Labour Government.
I voted for her in the first term, and I very seriously regret having done so.
NZ has a democracy, but is is a rather sick democracy that has been subjecte to repeated attack under the current Labour government, including multiple breaches of the Bill Of Rights (successfully challenged in High Court).
Just yesterday, there a gang altercation and multiple shootings in my neighborhood, something unheard of until recently. How Ardern can stand up and self-promote her success in tackling violence and shootings in NZ while this is going on here at home is a sick joke.
@@professorakiba434 You haven't noticed. NZ is no longer a Parliamentary Democracy, but a Parliamentary Dictatorship. Most Muppets of Parliament are selected, making elections a farce. Time will tell, but I am looking forward to Ardern spending time in prison for her crimes.
@@professorakiba434 well said
My name is Jacinda....I am crashing in the Polls ,so I hope this will get me a job at the UN,,it pays better than the Fish and Chip shop
This woman is remarkable. I’m so jealous of New Zealand.
You may want to ask some Kiwis what they think about her before you make a statement like that.
I wish you could have her right now and as long as you wish. I am just tired of her shows.
WEF Global Youth Leader leading her country into the abyss.
And now you can add Blackrock.
surely the most inspiring and progressive world leader in our time
That's a real leader folks intelligent compassion just a real role model
what a totally dynamic and enlightened individual
When the crown stood I got goosebumps. Let’s do this people. Let’s do this. Vote. Vote to get those that would stand in the way OUT.
