Upper Hutt In Charge Of The Country
It seems almost certain that Chris Hipkins will be the new Prime Minister of NZ.
Hipkins best credential is that he is the member for Remutaka ie Upper Hutt.
He is also rather personable and approachable - which follows in the footsteps of John Key and Jacinda Ardern and are traits which by and large Kiwis prefer.
His reputation for being effective, efficient and quick witted will not harm his stint as PM be it only til this coming October.
During the Thorndon Fair a few weeks ago, my Corgi used Ardern's garden as a toilet. I hope that was not a reason for her departure.

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
