    Our current Leader did us proud in her overseas visits.

    The wannabe other Leader talking us down. Does he think the Pacific are Bottom Feeders?

    Did he go to say HE would join the USA/ UK club?

    After Jacinda has declared our Foreign Policy Independent ? frown

    Another factor emerges about Luxon's visit. He went to a conservative school, run like a charter school. ……. u.. oh. Machaela Community School.

    Well, now, this looks like a significant shift in the 501 and Kiwi pathway to residency blockages we've had in Australia

    https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/jacinda-ardern-in-australia-albanese-on-501s-countries-to-show-common-sense-and-work-as-friends/TCPOWLFTUYTBBOXPR4XLW3YBRI/?c_id=1&objectid=12536822&ref=rss

    Albanese stated while Australia would retain the right to deport people, it would now be done in a "common sense" approach based on "actions of friends".

    "In situations where someone had lived their entire life in Australia and they have no connection to New Zealand we will work through it as friends and in a common-sense way."

    Also what looks like significant movement on right to residence/citizenship and voting:

    Albanese announced a range of reviews into policies affecting New Zealanders living in Australia, including pathways to citizenship, voting rights of residents, and deportations.

    "We don't want people to be temporary residents forever. We will work on pathways to citizenship, with a timeline of Anzac Day 2023," Albanese said.

    While these are 'reviews' announced at this stage (not actual policy) – it's really hopeful to have the Oz government willing to look at the issues.
