The longer answer? It is perhaps the most incredible example of deceptive marketing in the history of mankind. However, law and order gives a guilt-free outlet to let off steam from the more conservative elements of the party, particularly in the wake of high profile gang violence across Auckland.ĭrive-by shootings and traumatised neighbourhoods could not have come at a worse time for Ardern than as she trumpeted in the United States New Zealand’s victory over firearms, and give ample room for the Opposition to reinforce its conservative credentials (as well as breathing new life and, hopefully, a new name into Simon Bridges’ “Strike Force Raptor” proposal).Is MonaVie a Scam? Is MonaVie a Scam? While in the past he has raised welfare dependency as a major issue to address, he said in another interview this week that he would not “overhaul” the system or drop Labour’s incremental increases in benefits. He has avoided the overt race-baiting of ACT, and attempted to play up his credentials as tangata Tiriti while opposing the bugbear of “co-governance”. National leader Christopher Luxon has gone out of his way to avoid the ideological scapegoating of his predecessors in the wilderness of opposition. This means National’s small-target strategy of focusing on the cost of living is on track.īen Thomas: Grant Robertson might have been wondering how more many billions he and Ardern would have to spend to buy some gratitude. If middle-income voters wondered what they could buy for their $350 cost of living payment in the Budget, Ardern and Finance Minister Grant Robertson may have been wondering how more many billions they would have to spend to buy some gratitude.

On all top six issues, except health, National was rated a better manager than Labour. The dominance of economic issues is hard to overstate: in the Ipsos poll, for example, three of the top six concerns were inflation/cost of living, petrol prices, and “the economy”, largely the same things to the everyday voter. Although the methodologies differ, the two public polls showing the issues of importance to the electorate have become, overwhelmingly, related to economic matters, and shown that National has regained its traditional position of being more trusted by voters to manage these matters. More bad news came with the release of Ipsos polling showing that the cost of living had become a major concern for even more New Zealanders. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s greatest chance to at least flatten rising tensions among gangs comes with another overseas trip, to see new Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese, says Ben Thomas. Roy Morgan is regarded, fairly or not, as less reliable than other public polls, but its trends have been broadly in line with its more respected peers. However, arriving home was more like end-of-empire: greeted with more bad polls, Roy Morgan showing a gulf opening up between the Opposition and Government parties. The tragic school shooting in Uvalde, Texas, during her trip also meant career-highlight successes were foregrounded, in particular the decisive action to ban semi-automatic weapons following the Christchurch terrorist attack. * Jacinda Ardern uses Harvard speech to lash 'keyboard warriors', attack disinformation * Sense of 'lawlessness' in Auckland as ramraids and shootings spread across the city * Jacinda Ardern to meet new Australian PM Anthony Albanese and Samoan PM Fiame Mata'afa

John Key’s people skills and glad-handing were every bit her equal, as shown by his close relationship with Barack Obama, but on foreign television or at the podium there was a vast gulf between the former prime minister’s amiable uncle vibes and Ardern’s charisma and personality. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern meets President Joe Biden at the White House last week: her charisma and personality were on show, writes Ben Thomas.
