Jacinda Ardern humorously reflects on her amazing year - 'if you're the deputy to Andrew Little, possibly run for the hills!’

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has finished the year with a humorous adjournment speech to Parliament. 

In her adjournment speech to Parliament today, Ms Ardern reflected on what she has learned throughout the year, from plumbing to being a deputy leader. 

"I have learned plumbing a toilet between an S trap and a P trap and why I should install neither, personally.

"I learned elections in this day and age can be a good, clean contest of ideas... With the exception of a few holes,

"I've learned that in amongst election periods where we are all ultimately humans," she said. 

"I learned that if you're ever a deputy to someone like Andrew Little, you should prepare for the unexpected and possibly run for the hills!" 

The Prime Minster praised her team, as well as Andrew Little and went on to share the accomplishments the new Government have made and what that means to her. 

"We made the first year of tertiary education free and as much as I heard from the other side of the house unambitious statements around why someone who worked in a supermarket would be interested in this," she said. 

"I can tell you Mr Speaker, I worked in a supermarket and this is exactly the kind of policy I would have wanted a caring, thoughtful government who invests in its future to think about."
