The BFD.

Can you take a hint?

The Prime Minister is calling on New Zealanders to prepare to work from home and prepare to stop non-essential travel, as authorities look to stem the spread of coronavirus COVID-19.

Today’s face of the day Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is hinting hard out now and if you add that to Deputy Minister Winston Peters telling New Zealanders to hurry home it is clear that metaphorically “winter is coming” to New Zealand.

What ” Winter” may look like:

  1. Our borders closed. No one allowed in, no one allowed out
  2. Domestic travel stopped or curtailed to some degree
  3. Everyone apart from essential services restricted to working from home.
  4. An Italy like forced quarantine where most of the population is confined to their homes.
The BFD. Winter is coming to New Zealand if strong hints from PM Jacinda Ardern are anything to go by.

If you enjoyed this BFD face of the day please consider sharing it with your friends.

Interestingly, the story as of last week even includes a bouquet of flowers. Just like the myth, what appear to be yellow chrysanthemums, were delivered to Fauci’s doorstep. Though not daffodils this time, yellow chrysanthemums are commonly called mums. Fitting, I suppose, because mum’s the word.
