    Former airline boss, Christopher Luxon, has been talking the country down a lot recently.

    Apparently, we are inward looking and fearful (the smiling PM is on her fifth trade/diplomatic trip in as many weeks). Apparently, Kiwis are sitting around the dining table tonight, concerned (they're not, the ones he's talking to are in Rarotonga or Wanaka). And apparently, businesses are soft and addicted to government support (yet at the same time the government doesn't support them enough).

    Not only does former airline boss, Christopher Luxon, speak in boardroom jargon, he speaks in contradictions, and speaks negatively.

    It's the last one which he will have to ditch most urgently if he wants to become NZ boss because talking down to the country doesn't work. Kiwis don't like to be told they are scared, soft, and inward looking.

    The media to their credit have asked former airline boss, Christopher Luxon, about his gloomy comments, but right now he doesn't seem to be getting the right advice because he doubles down at all of his many stand ups.

    I am not unhappy about his negative style because it contrasts so well with the positive style of Jacinda Ardern.

    Bad language warning.

    Lee Camp ask the most silly question, how will the world end…

    Health Minister Andrew Little has a pop at the Nurses Association, describing them as talking with a 'forked tongue'.

    This was either a political blunder, or a very calculated and high stakes attack.
