Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and opposition leader Judith Collins. According to the National leader, Ardern refuses to publicly say her name as well – instead, calling her either the opposition leader, or the leader of the National Party. And, speaking to RNZ this morning, Ardern made a number of references to "the Opposition". In the post-Cabinet press conferences she's had since Collins took over as National leader, Ardern has also been reluctant to name-check Collins. Asked at one point by a member of the audience what aspect of the job she would enjoy most about being Prime Minister, Collins said: "Bringing back hope."
