I can’t imagine how difficult it has been for so many since the events in Christchurch last Friday, and we have seen weak, and at times shameful, comments from leaders across the world, including those in Australia.

Jacinda Ardern has been a light in the darkness, showing strength, contained emotion, and clarity.

This speech an outstanding example. So good to have the transcript there as well as the video.

And when asked to comment on the statements of Australian Senator Fraser Anning, her response, “Disgraceful. Next question.” – pitch perfect.
