    Not a bad summary of the last 5 years. Some of the other tribues are somewhat overdone.

    This made me laugh. Only Rich and the other Labour sycophants believe it: "History will show a leader who locked the country down early in 2020 and avoided the rash of Covid deaths that we saw overseas before vaccines were available." Labour were two
    weeks making up their mind and it took months before they'd sorted all the rules out!

    I agree - Labour under Ardern was all talk and spend and very little
    delivery. Their biggest achievement in my book was to admit there is
    (and was) a housing crisis. I still remember their commitment in
    budget 2019 (IIRC) to spend 2 billion on Mental Health but like all
    the other 'transformations' I will take Mike Kings word on their lack
    of achievements.
