Jacinda Ardern announces resignation as New Zealand Prime Minister
ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) ^ | 19th Jaunary 2023

Jacinda Ardern has announced her shock resignation as New Zealand Prime Minister, while also calling an election on October 14.

Ms Ardern choked back tears on Thursday as she said she did not have the energy to seek re-election.

She said her final day in office will be February 7.

"I know what this job takes. And I know that I no longer have enough in the tank to do it justice," she said.

Ms Ardern said she had the support of her family to continue, but they were also on board with her decision.

She said she would be there when her daughter Neve started school next year, and to her partner added: "To Clarke, let's finally get married."

Ms Ardern has been New Zealand's Prime Minister since 2017.

Good.

She’s a bad ‘leader’ for a nation.

Pity. She spoke so gently as she crushed the people.

Could the next steps in the destruction of Australia be too brutal for even her?

Jacinda has had it! Enough with trying to make a socially responsible group from these New Zealanders.

We will have to see if the Kiwis can find a real leader not some socialist hack. New Zealand needs a Margaret Thatcher type leader.

“To Clarke, let’s finally get married.”

Ugh. This reads like the end of some sort of rom com movie. Simps and doughy cat ladies are probably crying through their facemasks right now.

Different from Angela Merkle, who seemed to thrive on knowing she was hated by most Germans.

Something is probably in the news cycle that has yet to break.

@ 12 Well that can’t be good. After all, it was only 8 mice that were studied before our regulators gave the green light to inject millions of humans with their latest shot.
