Who Picked Him as a Dictator?
Democracy falls when unelected people take power. Who knew that New Zealand would fall as a democracy in such a meek manner, with the people voluntarily handing over power to un-elected health bureaucrats? It’s like we have never learned from history. Adolf Hitler took power at the ballot box,
Aucklanders Are Fed up with Gangs Flouting the Rules

The Grown-Ups Have Arrived
In politics, things turn on a heartbeat. I have friends who adore Jacinda but are sick up to the back teeth of being locked down, because they can’t visit family overseas, can’t hold funerals for their loved ones, have to queue to get into a supermarket and can’
