Fighting Fake News with REAL 21/1/23 Murdoch and heard of scum puppets revealed, Jacinda Ardern is proof,

 

 “Hang on, isn’t that a constitutional responsibility?”

 

Australians confused after Ardern resigns without sticking around to utterly destroy party 

 

 Murdoch's Tucker Carlson took a swipe at Ardern calling her a Chinese puppet. This ignorance stands out when he  claims she did nothing for the country

Greg Sheridan writing in The Australian wailed,

“All her economic instincts were bad, all her strategic instincts were bad. She had a great desire to undo productive economic reform and remove or shut down the engines of economic growth for what should be a nation of limitless opportunity.”

James Macpherson on the Bolt Report claimed, 

“Jacinda Ardern wants to be remembered for being empathetic and kind. Well, she won’t be remembered for building a strong economy.”

The Daily Mail’s Guy Adams opined that,

“Back in New Zealand, where this progressive superstar has never been quite so popular as she has overseas, voters are facing a cost-of-living crisis, spiralling crime rates and soaring inflation. Housing is increasingly unaffordable and the economy is on the verge of a recession …”

The Flat White column at The Spectator asserted,

“Labour is aware that a failing economy is bad for the polls, with Ardern previously overseeing a pay-cut in solidarity.”

 

Economic Freedom

Finally, the rankings on economic freedom compiled by Heritage Foundation in the USA give the Ardern administration huge bragging rights.

Heritage ranked New Zealand the top economy in the OECD in four of the last five years. Global ranking has fluctuated between second and fifth.

If the right wing media read these numbers when the Nationals were in office, they would have proclaimed them from the mountain tops.

As the world is thanking Jacinda Ardern profoundly for her 14 years in New Zealand’s Parliament and more than five as prime minister, a large number of white male scribes have joined in a frenzy of extraordinarily bitter attacks. Alan Austin reports on her economic performance. 

Could it be that Ardern is young, female, candid and honest, widely-respected abroad, genuinely loved at home, an open and proud socialist, and a winner? In other words, the direct opposite of Donald Trump, Scott Morrison and Boris Johnson? Could it be that they cannot abide her succeeding in economic management where their heroes have all dismally failed?

Is this why they must shamelessly falsify the record? Because falsify it, they have.

Murdoch's Revenge

Twomey says it would be inappropriate for the government to release draft legislation ahead of the vote.

"It goes completely against the entire point of the referendum," Professor Twomey said.

"If you start putting out a detail with the bill, et cetera, people will think that that's what they're voting on in the referendum."

"The voting in the referendum is on the words and the change that you put into the constitution," Professor Twomey said.

"… it's the words that say — there shall be this body, it has the function of making representations to parliament and we have to leave parliament to decide the rest."

"In fact, the process involves getting parliament to decide those things in the future and change them from time to time where needed."

There are precedents for exposure drafts of legislation being released before a referendum, but Professor Twomey said it was better to view this referendum through a similar lens as the 1946 and 1967 votes.

"With the 1967 referendum, it did give the Commonwealth parliament power to make laws with respect to Indigenous Australians.

"No-one was saying then, 'Well, you have to tell me every single law that's going to be made using that power in the future.' I mean, that's just not possible."

There may be reasons to change some of those structural elements of the Voice down the track, which was why Professor Twomey said a simple constitutional amendment followed by more detailed legislation made sense.

"We don't want things frozen into the constitution that might be hard to change in the future. We want to have flexibility.”

 "It goes completely against the entire point of the referendum," Professor Twomey
