What an embarrassing sexist post - you’re pathetic. With a name like blackcap you don’t deserve to be a cricket 🏏 supporter.

There was NO mistake.
Ardern heads a deceitful, incompetent and clueless government in disarray.
https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/pol...nchment-clause
Ardern has said she did not know about the vote on the clause until after it occurred, despite being in a caucus meeting where it was discussed.
Never mind that she (Mahuta) had discussed it with the Greens, discussed it with Labour’s caucus “broadly”, spoke in seeming support of it on the night, and Labour voted it through.
Labour’s leader of the House, Chris Hipkins, said nothing more than “sometimes mistakes happen” and he was not aware a 60% supermajority threshold was even being voted on.
Attorney-General David Parker has emerged as a dissenting Labour voice, indicating he advised against an entrenchment clause and he was not alone within Labour in doing so.
There are no plausible scenarios to emerge from this that are good for the Government. Labour MPs may have decided to vote for the entrenchment, against advice, and have only backtracked because of the outcry. Or, as heavily suggested by Ardern, they voted for an entrenchment clause they didn’t fully understand.
The most charitable scenario – that Labour MPs, ill-informed or confused, somehow voted in error – does not absolve them of responsibility.
If the last scenario were the case, fault would in effect lie with Mahuta, for either failing to properly inform her colleagues of the 60% threshold and that it would succeed with Labour’s support, or failing to understand this herself.
Sadly it's still a sideshow balance, they'll vote in the 3-waters bill with their majority. No one will lose their jobs, despite how awful the optics are. Focus on the real issue, it's not just that they got caught fudging the process, it's about 3-waters legislation is a crock, stealing a national asset and rights from the population and putting it under the control of another biased and race-based governance. Like health.
Ardern is so full of crap.
Maybe we will see her imploding into a messy pile of dung soon.
