In spite of the appalling mess Labour and the PM find themselves in, and regardless of the unpardonable handling of the concerns and anxieties of the alleged sexual harassment victims, one thing has been put to bed once and for all. Ardern should never have been appointed PM.

We have known this here on the BFD right from the beginning; but many fell for Labour’s manipulation. Here was an attractive (objectively), friendly, benevolent do-gooder who would appeal to a wide sector of society. And she did. Her response to the Christchurch attack confirmed to many an image of care and compassion. It was, and is, her only achievement to pass muster. She plays the role of mother hen to perfection and for that, she is paid $500,000pa.

The truth is that she is intellectually a runt, a political airhead, an appalling communicator and, worst of all, there isn’t a light on in the vacuum between her ears. Her appointment should never have been made. Labour conned us and NZF endorsed it. But there is hope. This farce cannot continue forever. She has been scandalously exposed. Both her pathetic leadership and her lack of honesty have been revealed. It would be well-nigh impossible for her to have not been aware of the sexual abuse claims, despite her ineptitude. But what has become most damaging is her leadership blindness. She didn’t have a clue what to do. She was a flounder in a fishbowl. And for all of that she is paid $500,000pa.

We all knew the pretense of leadership would eventually be exposed for the farce that it is. We all knew that the CoLs were a cast of political morons. We here at the BFD have being exposing this scam right from the beginning and it appears that the rest of the MSM is now having to accept that we were right.

Socialism always self-implodes. It attracts stupid people who do stupid things. Right now the evidence is overwhelming. Fortunately the collapse of this mob has been timed to perfection. National may not be the perfect option, but quite frankly they have to be elected in 2020. The country cannot survive without them. If we must pay $500,000 for leadership then the least we can expect is a leader. Any takers?

Centre-right, Act/National. Still undecided. Opposed to legislation which pigeonholes ethnicity, gender, political or faith-based groupings. A divided society is a sick society. The socialist's agenda...
