I earlier wrote about the uncanny and symbiotic relationship of our narcissist Prime Minister releasing or writing letters to people, mainly children, and the polls that follow shortly thereafter.

This past week we have seen a deluge of letters. There must be a Newshub poll coming on Sunday evening.

Just yesterday there was another one:

Another overseas fan of Jacinda Ardern has received a letter from the Kiwi Prime Minister.

Dione Rogers, a nurse from the English town of Kettering, says she was watching Netflix with her partner, Richard Adams, when he told her to have a look at her emails.

Unbeknownst to her, Adams had written to Ardern, praising his partner’s work for the National Health Service in Kettering. When she opened her email inbox, Rogers found a reply. 

“It can’t have been easy – especially since the pandemic hit – to have been working in such a busy and vital role in the NHS,” Ardern said in her letter shared online by Rogers.

The Prime Minister goes on to comment on several of Rogers’ recent accomplishments, such as working on a masters degree, getting a new role at Kettering General Hospital and being named as National Digital Leader of the Year.

“I know how busy life can be, in fact you make my life seem straightforward in comparison!” Ardern said. “So congratulations, Dione, for all that you’ve accomplished. I send you and your family my very best wishes for the future.”

Just you wait, there will be a poll this week, and Jacinda Ardern has been copping a flogging on her preferred platforms. She even got push-back on her last bastion of safety, Facebook Live:

Social media users have attacked Jacinda Ardern during a Facebook Live over the Government’s latest housing announcement, saying the new plans won’t help renters. […]

Later on Tuesday evening, the Prime Minister gave an update on Facebook Live to explain the new housing regulations. […]

But it was on this topic that many commenters disagreed with. Many said closing tax deductibility will drive up rents – something which property investors have threatened to do.

“This was just not the right move to fix the housing problem and it can only make renting worse as the loss is passed on to renters,” one said.

“So taxes get passed onto renters and it becomes harder for them to save. Prices will go up even further. You can’t tax people into prosperity,” another wrote.

The peasants are revolting and there appear to be a lot of people who are now howling down the Prime Minister.

The Taxpayers’ Union have noticed that the only way to get the Prime Minister to do anything is to get a child to write to her:

Good for them. It’s a great idea. So great in fact that I’ve set up an email address so you too can submit letters to the Prime Minister. We will format your letter in a suitable child-like font, perhaps make it look like crayon, so she will read it, then we will publish it and send it on your behalf.

Send your letters to lettertopm[at]thebfd.co.nz and we will send it on your behalf, complete with stars, glitter and the works.

If the Prime Minister wants to treat us like children, then we will speak to her as a child does. Maybe we will then get some action on the things that matter.
