Watched the 'Prime Minister' documentary film about Jacinda Ardern last night. 馃帴
It is excellent.
I have lots of criticism towards the labour party in general and Ardern's government in particular, but she is a decent, genuine human being and an excellent leader that brought the best out of people in hard times, of which she faced a real handful.
The film feels authentic and intimate, with it being partly shot by her partner and giving us a glimpse into her perspective of pivotal moments of Aotearoa's recent history.
It also makes it really evident how much of a downgrade the current CoC government is, and how much of her work has already been eroded by these greedy profiteers. And just how poisoned the discourse against her became and how manipulated the cookers still are.
I hope one day soon the pendulum swings back out of the rabbit hole and kindness and integrity come back into fashion for politicians.
Definitely check it out.
