Jacinda Ardern and her loyal bunch of sycophants like nothing better than seeing the Covid Queen listed in global rankings.

Well, she’s done it again! Steerpike at The Spectator writes:

The fall of Afghanistan has provoked much comment and soul-searching on both sides of the Atlantic. Along with the usual talking heads and thumping op-eds, the Taliban’s imminent victory has prompted some truly awful takes from some of the less distinguished figures in public life. Below is Mr Steerpike’s guide to some of the most tone-deaf, stunningly crass and just plain sinister responses to the fall of Afghanistan.

The list includes the UK Stop the War Coalition, who want reparations paid to the Taliban; the British Foreign Secretary for staying on holiday; Nancy Pelosi for praising Biden for what happened. But NZ squeaks in at number nine:

New Zealand’s Prime Minister has ‘implored’ Taliban leaders to uphold human rights, telling a press conference ‘What we want to see is women and girls being able to access work and education’ which she insightfully noted ‘are things that have traditionally not been available to them where there has been governance by Taliban.’ The Taliban’s response is as yet unknown.

No wonder we had to have a level four lockdown, complete with compulsory masking. Dear Leader could no longer cover up the open derision of the people at her lengthening list of failures.
