Think how much @1NewsNZ @NewshubNZ hounded @JudithCollinsMP for (checks notes) doing her job as leader of the opposition/travelling to Wellington. Compare now the almost crickets to news a Labour MP Xmas holidayed to the Netherlands despite Govt telling kiwis not to travel o’seas

What a strange take here from Simon Wilson. The average income for centre right voters was lower than the average for the centre left at the last election (for the first time in NZ - bringing us into line with rest of Anglosphere). Update your stereotypes mate.
