First In Line to Receive Such A Well-Warranted Accolade is Surely 'Q & A' Host Jack Tame for His Superlative 'Take No Prisoners' Interview With the Nation's First Lady Last Sunday...

For making a major departure from Aotearoa-New Zealand's erstwhile sycophantic 'sucking up' to Prime Minister Ardern, one cannot have anything but praise and plaudits for the youthful and feisty Tame, someone who's fast proving he's an unqualified asset to the kiwi media landscape...

Not resiling an inch throughout said interview for a persistent, even rather relentless line of questioning, in which he gave not an ounce of leeway to evasive and arguably devious responses from the PM, Jack Tame put the questions ye average kiwi has wanted and continues to want, and need, and even rightfully demand  of the nation's leader...

Well done, Jack, though life's been upon me, as with so many of our fellow NZers, the reason this blogpost is so belated...

Postscript: 

Interestingly, you - for a change (from most journos, anyhow) - arguably gave a *gentler interview of **Opposition leader Judith Collins, yet she seemed to fail to profit therefrom... 

*Simply as a courtesy, I believe, to someone constantly 'harassed' (if justly) as a somewhat ineffective leader...

**No longer? - As At NZ leader David Seymour rapidly succeeds to said role...

Post-Postscript:

A well-deserved ZERO to 'the Hosk' for signally failing to register Tame (vis-a-vis said interview) upon his Friday morning 'Week in Review' - and allocating him a well-deserved 10; as he likewise didn't with Greta Thurnberg, whose 'greenwashing' reference to Cop26 could scarcely have been more apt...and hence likewise warranted a 10...

Donald J Trump a Fitting Candidate for the Biblical Antichrist? Truth Be Told (As It Ever Should Be), the Case of a Certain American Blogger To This Effect 4-6-8 Years Ago Now Looks Increasingly Credible...

Nevertheless as an historical pre-/post-millenialist I do happen to see the prophetic delineation of the same in the Book of the Apocrypha , i.e. Revelation , as 'proposing'/indicating a 'better' (as in more historically relevant) candidate... Admittedly, one equally vile  (as the Older Testament Book of Daniel  expresses things), but with more 'hits' in its voluminous description thereof... But as a minor 'little' Antichrist counterpart of the aforementioned, a good case could well be made!

A Welcome Non-Partisan Move, For Sure - by Simon Bridges; But One Smart Move Does Not A Real Leader Make: THAT Requires 'the Balls' To Stand Alone, Knowing You Have the Right Upon Your Side, While All the - Rest of - the World Thinks You're Barking Mad...and Stands Ready - as Jesus' Own Family Once Did, Declaring Him 'Out of His Mind' - to Commit you for Life (& Eternity)...

Vis-a-Vis NZ National Party leader Simon Bridges' Budget Reply Debate Speech Two Days Ago... TO BE CONTINUED.. Wednesday May 20th: Events now well and truly having moved on by now, let me nevertheless post what I scribbled in my notebook on Friday the 16th following the previous afternoon's post-Budget day addresses - by Bridges et al... Mr Bridges Shows his Quality At Last Resiling from ye standard politically partisan post-Budget 'No Confidence' motion in the Government (of the day) as has been delivered by any and every Opposition leader 'from time and immemorial', National's leader (for the time being, anyhow) Simon Bridges delivered an extremely balanced and temperate response to the financial largesse to be bestowed as per the Finance Minister's Third Budget... No fiery theatrics and histrionics for sure, much less a burning, vitriolic denunciation of all things Labour-ish, so, no, the speech won't be noted in the annals and vaults ...
