Comments by "zjeee" (@zjeee) on "How New Zealand Fell Out of Love With Jacinda Ardern" video.

Like the video suggested she has a very good image abroad but she's done very little to improve the lives of people living in NZ.

What system? Democracy? No matter how popular she is outside NZ it's the people of NZ that choose their leaders and she failed them at home. She was going to lose the election bad so she decided to step down to avoid being totally crushed. At the end of the day it's not a bad thing if a leader is honest and empathetic but they need to improve the lives of their citizens being nice won't buy people food or get them affordable housing.

@Cracker9876 YES please I don't want to work! Give me free money so I can chill all day on someone else's expense. I cannot wait.

@wickerworld There is no way her party could secure a victory with the right bloc, made up of the centre-right National party, increased its lead by to 38%, while the Libertarian Act party, jumped to 11%, putting the two parties in a comfortable position to form a government without needing additional coalition partners. Her left block was getting destroyed so they decided to switch in hopes of turning it around.

@alicetumblescribbleson5961 It's funny how internationally people think she's a saint but she actually showed totalitarian tendencies with her COVID ideas and policies. I am so happy she's gone. Can't imagine what kind of freedom she would want to take next.

It's a democracy that means if you do a bad job you're out next election. That's how it goes. Doesn't matter how good of a person is if you cannot improve the lives of the people living in your country then you have no business leading them.

@2bfrank657 Isn't her approval rating in the twenties %? Very few people like her. Even Trump had higher approval ratings than her and he was hardly popular.

The video forgot to mentions the riots that resulted from her COVID policies... Never seen riots like that in NZ people just got sick of her.

She was good at taking away freedoms that's for sure.

Maintaining a good image outward while not doing anything for the citizen of the country you are supposed to lead? God help us all if this is what a good politician is supposed to be like.

@nigelralphmurphy2852 why? Her approval rating was less than 30% when she left. I think the numbers speak for themselves. Even Trump was more popular than she was.

She did great during the pandemic???! What?! That's why people hate her. Lockdowns, vaccine mandates, extreme measures? Her policies resulted in major riots that NZ has not seen before. Her pandemic policies put the nail in her coffin at home there was no way she would get re-elected after that mess.

Didn't she laugh about banning the unvaccinated from stores and restaurants? Her Covid policies were crazy exaggerated. Turns out people did not want to be locked inside their rooms their whole life. Who would have thought?
