Last week a fed-up businessman placed an advertisement in New Zealand’s biggest news magazine.
Under the headline, ‘The following countries do not ban their own citizens from returning to their home country,’ it listed a host of nations as diverse as Afghanistan, China, Australia, Israel, Saudi Arabia and the U.S.
Under another headline, ‘The following countries effectively ban their own citizens from returning to their home country,’ it listed just one: New Zealand.
It was a rare public riposte to the country’s ‘Be Kind’ superwoke-but-authoritarian Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern whose behaviour becomes crueller and more twisted by the day as she continues on an increasingly desperate quest to keep my homeland a Zero Covid hermit kingdom, just as the highly transmissible Omicron variant begins to spread in the community.
Many Kiwis have become so brainwashed by Ardern’s incessant spin – swallowed whole by a compliant [paid] media – that they reacted with a mere shrug when her government at the weekend revealed citizens who are household contacts of anyone who tests positive for Covid will have to self-isolate for a whopping 24 days as part of her ‘stamp it out’ policy approach.
The social and economic consequences of her irrational, non-evidence-based obsession with this now quite minor virus will be severe. —Eds
Either she “who must be obeyed” is part of a big agenda or she’s drunk with power – demented. I suggested the latter to friends several weeks ago. I liken it to “The Madness of King George.” Remember the movie?
Either she’s an ideological big agenda (puppet) or she’s demented, drunk with power etc.,
What do her cabinet individually think? Or are they gutless to speak up?
She had less than a million in her bank account before election, she is now worth more than Boris Johnson and Joe Biden combined. I say it is the former. “6uild 6ack 6etter”. How many times has she said that? Now go look at the origins of that phrase.
Ardern is hooked on attention, prestige and power.
Likely is she has been appointed and will be promoted to further the UN agenda for a global form of authoritarian and tyrannical government controlled by them.
The communistic styled rule and ideology adopted by her and her sycophantic cbinet and party faithful promotes the destruction of democracy,social and economic systems and the implementation of authoritarian central government control of of people.
She craves to be the new Messiah.
Covid, climate change pest invasions, ethnic privilege are her divide and conquer tools that justifies the destruction of democracy and the egalitarian society our pioneers set up. A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing?
Unfortunately, some people are sheep and see her as an ovine angel.
Excellent Herb,
the trick she is pulling on us is, straight out of the Uncle Adolf guide to rule. “fill the pipeline daily with fear adding a scape goat,[Juden Verboten], [anti vaxxers verboten].”
Implication by extension the populous will clamor to be led to safety by her.
Unlimited power will enable control of all the narrative & we will be led to safety as the”one & only source of truth”saves us.
Ardern is seriously mentally desturbed.
I wonder who is pulling this Governments strings surely no Government could be as stupid as this lot.
I will send you a poem just completed about Jacinda
Re the PM’s melodramatics and her postponed marriage, if Ardern was sincere about marriage – and having to follow the rules everyone else is subject to – she would have a quiet close family wedding in a registry office?
But it seems she wants the spotlight on her, of a big dazzling event at a later date. She’s using it for political ends with election next year?
