Congratulations to Jacinda Ardern

The Standard reports that Labour’s Jacinda Ardern has been elected President of the International Union of Socialist Youth. That’s a great achievement. Jacinda is a former staffer in Helen Clark’s office and while I have never met her, I have often heard Labourites rave about how great she is
New Zealand does quite well on the international youth politics front. Another kiwi, Shane Frith, served a couple of terms as Chairman of the International Young Democrat Union.
A few years ago Jacinda and I were both due to travel to Beijing to attend a meeting of a UN group on youth unemployment (I was representing IYDU) but sadly Jacinda had to pull out at the last minute. It would have been useful having another kiwi there as I had my wallet stolen the day I was due to leave.

“I had my wallet stolen the day I was due to leave.”
And what self-respecting socialist would not have redistributed her wealth to a comrade in need?

That would be Tory charity, Billy.

No Tane, Tory charity is when a rich person donates money to the underpriviledged out of the kindness of their heart. I know you dispise that idea as it removes people from being beholden to the state/Labour Party.

Have a sense of humour Bev, I was takin’ the piss.
February 1st, 2008 at 10:26 am
Geez Tane, how do you know I wasnt? The best humour is when someone is made to look like a fool.
BTW, ta for being the fool, couldnt have done it without ya!

Yawn… yet another indoctrinated politically one dimensional global government commie telling us all what’s good for us, hell bent on stealing the fruits of my labour and distributing it amongst her comrades, brimming over with anti-capitalist fervour, and megaphoning socialist propaganda for all she’s worth. Of course Labourites would rave about her.
In fact, politicians like Jacinda are a curse upon the globe and civilization. Without their poisonous influence, so much more would be achieved. Without her bigoted class based interference in their lives, so many more people would be richer and better off. So many more citizens would be healthier and better educated. So many more achievements in science and technology would be possible.
Jacinda is happy to sacrifice such progress to the socialists great ideal, power power power, and ultimately, totalitarian world government.
..and for the half educated nitwits who’ll immediately start whining about conspiracy theories.. wisen up. Its no conspiracy. Conspiracies have to have an element of secrecy. The global governance objectives of the IUSY are widely publicised.

Wow Tane – certainly some bridge-building needed for you, guy. They hate you!
Why don;t you tell them what a great ideas student loans are again, that should calm ‘em down…

President of the International Committee of Socialist Youth?
Is that anything like the Boy Scouts?

I clicked on here to make a comment, and I find Redbaiter has already said it for me. Hear, hear, Redbaiter.
I agree absolutely, these propagandised-up-to-the-eyeballs youth socialists are a curse on the future of mankind, and are like a Quisling movement in the free western world.

She will enjoy the UN an EU.

Useful information: now some of us know more about who has worked in Klark’s office. How old is this person 16 or and advanced youth of 36.?
February 1st, 2008 at 1:04 pm
Did the The Dominion of United Klarkistan have to nominate a current member of the femiste cabal or is it an open selection process?
February 1st, 2008 at 1:05 pm
Jacinda’s oh mid to late twenties. She’s alright, I know her from morrinsville.
She’s from a wealthy family, who the hell knows why she believes what she believes, but she don’t seem to walk the walk if you know what I mean. Also from a very religious background, mormon I think.
February 1st, 2008 at 1:06 pm
She’s quite a likeable sort though, and you’d be daft to try and smear her with any kkklark feminazi nonsense, she doesn’t come across like that at all.

“Labour’s Jacinda Ardern has been elected President of the International Union of Socialist Youth. ”
Another aspiring comrade joins the ranks of future oppressors of the masses they claim to defend. I don’t care about her personal background but do care about her ideology.
February 1st, 2008 at 1:20 pm
Yep that’s it. They’re out to oppress YOU, mate; every last one of them. It’s what they dream about…

Jacinda went to Morrinsville College.
Her father was senior constable in the town.
Not wealthy cow cockies.
She is a wonderfully pleasant young woman and a close friend of our twin daughters. It is a pity that her phucked up political thoughts have tainted our daughters’ brains. But then, her silly thoughts on politics are way ahead of “P”, so I think it is preferable to have one’s mind stuffed up with Liabore policy than fried up with “P”.

Had dinner with Frith in Singapore – nice guy.
February 1st, 2008 at 8:07 pm
Tauhei- yeah her dad’s a cop. I remember from going to their place once that it seemed pretty nice, but nothing a few years on a senior plod’s salary couldn’t get you I s’pose.
I agree with your analysis- lovely girl, phucked up political ideas.

Oh for goodness sake boys stop salivating over a bloody Commie.
Our good right-wing Miss Ten would cut her into tiny pieces in a second.
