WELLINGTON - New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is pleased with her government’s progress, she said on Tuesday, after two closely watched opinion polls showed support for her ruling coalition at its lowest since 2017, and her own popularity waning.
But domestic critics have questioned her leadership amid sinking business confidence, a slowing economy, governance issues and, most recently, her party’s handling of sexual assault complaints. “When you reflect on our polling that brought us in and allowed us to actually form a government, we’re doing better in this poll than we did even on election night,” Ardern told 1News.This week’s rating was just off a figure of 39% in a poll in Nov-Dec 2017, soon after Ardern took power that October, but while her rating as preferred prime minister also dropped in the poll, she was still far ahead of all her opponents.
“We’ve increased our support since we were elected and we are delivering the change New Zealanders asked for,” she said in a speech to the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions.
