McIvor doesn’t think PM is across her job

NewstalkBZ reports:

The latest political security breach has convinced Kerre McIvor that this Government doesn’t know what it’s doing. …

She also took aim at Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern for her refusal to answer questions. 
“I don’t get the sense she’s across her job.”
“You would think even she could set the agenda and put it to him and get the people to brief you. Just one solid answer would be fantastic.
“You’re in charge of the country, act like it!” 
McIvor says that Labour probably didn’t expect to be in Government after the last election, but that was 18 months ago and they should be up and running now.
“I get the sense that they are still trying to get their heads around the job, but this is their job. This is what they have been training all their lives to do – be the Government – and they aren’t doing a very good job of it.” 

Ironically the PM says:

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says losing some of her popularity is the result of taking on serious challenges in Government.

I think it is the opposite. The drop in popularity is because of an inability to take on the serious challenges.
