The sense of desperation and cynicism here is strong. After vetoing Sue Mooney’s Paid Parental Leave bill last year using wrong data and cooked up excuses National has announced its own policy.

It is like Labour’s but only 22 weeks not 26 weeks. Typical National, late to the game, offering less, and motivated by political games not achieving good.

Of course their problem is if they resemble Labour too much and it becomes a choice between Jacinda and Bill I am pretty sure Jacinda would win.

Twitter has been scathing …
