New Zealand is going to be fine. Now can she please come over to the UK and sort this country out because our government is absolutely useless.

[rubiginosaa]

Every country needs a Jacinda Ardern at this point

[Peter-ihbv]

A prime minister who can walk and talk, there's a novelty. No wonder New Zealand is a wonderful country. The world could do with more politicians like her.

[nazraz]

One of the few decent leaders in the world

[Paulkjoss]

She’s not making it law - just suggesting businesses think about it - yes that is the NZ Prime Minister just casually vlogging cause NZ is pretty chill y’all :)

[yvonnemckeon]

She is the best leader in the whole world! She really does care about the people! Wish she was our prime minister in the uk

Shes so boss she's continuing to film as she leaves the car.

[annarehbinder]

So so smart! Makes perfect sense for NZ situation!

[cheekymonk]

She is just so damn cool...and trustworthy. A proper leader.

How are you all doing in New Zealand when it comes down to new cases ? Hope your staying safe

[mimmomaiolo]

New Zealand has Ardern, America has a pill popper.

It's kind of mad yet amazing to see a country's leader doing a vlog-style video 😂

[hakaboy]

I’m shocked at the amount of incels who came here to comment on her teeth.

[harrycurrie]

Just an idea of what you can do with that old set of Allen keys.

[Theblackcaravanlady]

This leader is well ahead of her time. The UK needs her.

[dalefranklin]

I hope those ear rings don't kill our Prime Minister

[Stringfellow-xodo]

So how does a nation with a 4 day week survive economically in a 5-7 day week world?

[ascgazz]

Can you come and replace Boris please? We need a caring human in charge here too.
Pretty please?

Reduce the retirement age.

As people who are close to their retirement retire early, it'll open up more jobs for younger people.
