Yes maybe.
Crusher Collins - looks like she has Comrade Cindy scrambling to cover up again.
Obviously up to you who you vote for, but I don't see what was done incorrectly here. Ms Ardern received information and passed it to Ms Collins. Ms Collins received information and passed it to Ms Ardern. Was one transaction Ok and the other not? I would say Mr L-G's situation needs more scrutiny as he is a Minister of the Crown.
You appear to think Ms Collins gave information to the media. She answered a direct question and named no names. That is her style and people like it or they don't. Personally I prefer direct and simple to word salad, fluff and spin even if I don't like the answer.
I know a bit about the beltway. Plenty of playing away.
Collins crushed Comrade Cindy - it's politics and Cindy came out today looking like she fell into a smelly puddle. Two if you count her feeble response to Winston's freebie trips to Antarctica to two dual citizenship Malaysians to get donations.

Does anyone actually believe the PM fired Iain Lees-Galloway over just an affair?
Come on.
This affair's been known about for months down in Wellington. Even senior Labour MPs knew about it for months, and did nothing.
Unless there is more to this, it looks like he's been fired because the Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was politically snookered. She couldn't do anything other than fire him because she had to match new National leader Judith Collins.
She gave Collins dirty information last week. Collins was decisive. Andrew Falloon lost his job.
So, tit for tat. Collins gave the PM dirty information yesterday. Ardern needed to look decisive too. She had to fire him.
She basically got snookered by a Collins power play.
Why devalue the opinions of older people?
