Tonight we are on Blue Fin sashimi followed by seared Blue Fin steak, I think I may have over cooked the steak.
The only bit of that they "won" single handed was by dropping 2 A bombs and that was against a much smaller country. No country "won" WW2 single handed despite what Hollywood thinks, least of all us in the UK. Without US financial and equipment support we would have folded in late 1941. Securing the continued support of the USA at a critical time was probably Winston Churchill's greatest achievement.
What does it mean to "win" a war anyway?
6 weeks is a long time in politics. It would be a concern if Jacinda gets a majority allowing Labour to govern alone, it would be even worse if the Greens hold the balance of power.Starting to look like NZ has another term of Labour, with a working majority this time.....
Nats languish in new poll - the crucial day that Collins says tide will turn
Jacinda Ardern and Labour can govern alone, according to the latest Colmar Brunton poll.www.nzherald.co.nz
Lots of plaudits being cast her way around the world, many along the lines of "this is what a 21st century leader should look like".6 weeks is a long time in politics.

I share your concerns but it seems the other NZ political parties have conspired to hand it to them
May as well, peer pressure is current gov't whether red or blue. Same crap different day, voting for personalityHand it to them.
Rather like Clinton did to Trump and dear old Uncle Jeremy did to Johnson.
Like I said parts of Victoria have had that too. Cant have 1 person come to your house. Yet you can go to pub, restaurants, and the gym ffs.Breaking news on tv is that my town/council and those surrounding have been put back into lockdown.
Separate houses are no longer allowed to meet at each other’s home.
But we are all free to go to the pub to meet up still.
I’m actually lost for words.

Jacinda is very media savvy and plays them well, hence the plaudits from around the world, I will give her full credit for what she has done during covid, her communication skills are outstanding. I would question whether she has the financial ability to get NZ through the next stage of financial Armageddon.Lots of plaudits being cast her way around the world, many along the lines of "this is what a 21st century leader should look like".

It's an increasingly unattractive role, the right person for the job is likely in hiding and will remain so. I certainly would be!Jacinda is very media savvy and plays them well, hence the plaudits from around the world, I will give her full credit for what she has done during covid, her communication skills are outstanding.

John Key also received plaudits from around the world mostly due to his handling of the economy which resulted in some of the financial world quoting NZ as having a rockstar economy, what we need now is another JK but I for one cannot see where he or she is coming from.
So it's you Pete
