I summed up my thoughts in this letter which may, or may not, appear in the Herald (I've had a couple in recently after a drought):

Jacinda Ardern affirmed her position as an outstanding world-class Prime Minister and, I'll tell you what, Judith Collins solidified her suitability for the role of Leader of the Opposition.

I’m more concerned about this turning into a FPP election. I thought we were down with MMP?

I watched as much as I could but decided my mental and emotional wellbeing was more important so I kept switching to an equally tense episode of Masterchef...Judith called herself a feminist but she is everything feminists are not. She is just the mean bully girl in the playground that we were afraid off and dealt with it by avoiding as much as possible.

Great post. I'm worried about Dr Shane - her expert on all things pandemic when she chooses to consult him - but mostly he is silent. The real National Oracle Dr Thornley, the guy who famously said "other countries, such as Sweden, are steering a more sensible course through this turbulent time" and "we don't want to squash a flea with a sledgehammer " would bring real scorn down on her head.. But your dead-right we all care most about the pandemic - and that's what why we will vote for our extraordinary PM - but dont' you worry about the people who want chaos - wee have them here - and they are not all as out in the open about it as Collins, Seymour and BTK..
