    Covid-crazed Ardern resigns as NZ PM

    And crime, housing, smoking, COVID lockdown, guns, green policy. I really only only heard of her a few times before the last couple days, but I was up early and did some reading this morning. The only way she really came to my attention as I thought she was standing in front of a school bus...
