He is like a ferrill cat sitting on a fence waiting to pounce. He is extremely rude to her at every interview and before Jacinda has a chance to answer one of his pre loaded questions he cuts her off and fires another question at her and if he doesn't get the answer he requires so he can be in the position of " got ya" he ramps up his rudeness. Recently he couldn't get a rise out of Chris Hipkins in an interview so he went to an ad break without even thanking Chris for being on his show and that was the end of the interview. I wonder if the Producers of the show ever listen to him.
By comparrision he never treated our past Prime Minister in that manner in an interview. Imagine Mike Hoskings living in America at the moment, he obviously does not appreciate the position we are in re Covid compared to most other countries in the world.

Hi Neighbours!

Have you heard about our Community Connects grants?

The grants help fund projects that promote the inclusion and contribution of older people in community life, and support communities to prepare for an ageing population.

The fund makes one-off grants of up to $15,000. The grants are open to any New Zealand council, community organisation, or registered non-profit organisation. Applications for our current funding round close on 9 October.

Our last funding round was a huge success and helped fund a range of different projects across the country, that had focuses like reducing loneliness and social isolation of older people, developing an age-friendly community plan and supporting people with dementia.

With the right planning and support, we can create environments where older people are valued, connected and able to participate in their community.

If you have an age-friendly project you are interested in getting funding for click here bit.ly...
Or if would like to learn more about how your community can become more age-friendly click here bit.ly...
