1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda jam nationin an that took everyone by surprise. 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 2: It took her her own colleagues by surprise. When she 3 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 2: announced her resignation yesterday, she said someone asked her if 4 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 2: she'd even told her four year old daughter, and she said, no, 5 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 2: she's too chatty. No I could tell her beforehand. Either. 6 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: You can't tell the four year old kid anything. 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 2: No, Mom's got funny shit. 8 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: I did. I've always liked just Cinda Adurn. I think 9 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: she came into the job at possibly the hardest time 10 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: to be a politician, really, when you look at it. 11 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: To you at a pandemic, financial woes, a massacre or 12 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: on her watch, that's right because of her. 13 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 2: No, and that volcano eruption isn't right. 14 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: I forgot about the volcano. 15 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. She has had a really hard run as a 16 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: prime minister on the world stage, though she has taken 17 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 2: the country of New Zealand and made it a shining 18 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: example of how you can govern with kindness. And that's 19 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 2: the big legacy she's leaving behind is kindness. And she's 20 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: the first where is this I was reading this in 21 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 2: the paper this morning. She's the first elector world leader 22 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 2: to take maternity leave while in office. She paused for 23 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: six weeks after the birth of her baby. She's been 24 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 2: groundbreaking in so many ways, to the point where people 25 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: all over the world. She's been on the cover of 26 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: Time magazine, the cover of The Atlantic. Yesterday, Pink tweeted 27 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 2: this Prime Minister j Cinda ad earned there will never 28 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 2: be another like you. I wish there were. You have 29 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: my admiration, my respect, my well wishes for you and 30 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 2: your family. I've watched you shine uniquely and bravely from afar. 31 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: Thank you for showing the rest of the world what's possible. 32 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 2: So while American politics was internal, and we saw that 33 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 2: all through Europe as well, we saw a shining example 34 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,839 Speaker 2: of what could be in little Old New Zealand. 35 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: Amazing and I when she was asked what would she 36 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: like to be remembered for. 37 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 2: She said, you beat her on this even eighth that's 38 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: a different speech. No, no, she said, this someone who 39 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: always tried to be kind. And she said, and she 40 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 2: has said, one of the criticisms I've faced over the 41 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: years is that I'm not aggressive enough or assertive enough, 42 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 2: or maybe somehow because I'm empathetic it means I'm weak. 43 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 2: I totally rebel against that. I refuse to believe you 44 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: cannot be both compassionate and strong, and that dichotomy is 45 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 2: really what will be her legacy. Just extraordinary. She says, 46 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 2: she's just got nothing in the tank. There is an 47 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 2: election coming. Hard to do well, she said. I'm not 48 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: leaving because it's hard. She has made that point. I'm 49 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: not leaving because it's hard. If I was going to 50 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: do that, i'd have left the job after two weeks. 51 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: I'm leaving because I appreciate what it takes and I 52 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 2: don't have enough in the tank anymore. They come out 53 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: for an election this year, and in good faith, she says, 54 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,799 Speaker 2: it's time for someone else to have a go. It's 55 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: interesting when you look at she is, as we've said, 56 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 2: she's a working mother. There's a whole lot of women 57 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: who we've heard of recently who are leaving because they 58 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 2: don't have enough in the tank. Taking a break. Tracy 59 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 2: Grimshaw leeves sales. 60 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: I know. 61 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: Carrie Boochmore said she's going on to do other projects. 62 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: But part of it is I need time to refill 63 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: the tank. And I don't know if men ever allow themselves. 64 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 2: Can you think of a single male politician who said 65 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 2: I don't have enough in the tank. I think men 66 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: might see that. It's a sign of weakness to say that, 67 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 2: where she said it takes courage to say I don't 68 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 2: think I've got it there anything. 69 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: Usually hear a man is resigning because they're leaving for 70 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: family reasons, which means they've cocked up royally. 71 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: See, that's what we assume when a man says I 72 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 2: want to do less. So we need to be more 73 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 2: empathetic for men and women in all spheres. When they 74 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: say I've had enough and she just looks, she is 75 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 2: extraordinary and she'll be remembered for all those incredible things. 76 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: Her fellow New Zealanders were just as shocked when they 77 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: heard the news. 78 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: Oh man, I thought she was all good. I can't 79 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:47,839 Speaker 2: believe that it was a surprise on the seventeen gets 80 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: you in the heart, doesn't it.
