Wow Gavin, I give you points for passion but zero for accuracy and fact.
I do think she is a nice genuine person but she is only as good as those around her, unfortunately this is where it all falls down. There is no super stars in the Labour cabinet, hardly any with real life experience of any description & any party that is blessed with the likes of Andrew Little & Phil Twyford is going to struggle with popularity.
The saving grace is that National has an unpopular man in Bridges, he will be gone before Jacinda & then it will be all on, the Nats normally dont make poor leader selections twice.
