Jacinda Ardern's Trial by Media. And Me Too Labour Blames Haworth, not Ardern

The PM and Nigel Haworth pn489

UPDATE. HAWORTH RESIGNS, ADERN APOLOGISES.

While still reeling from the punches and counter-punches that have recently rocked the Fiji political stage, I turned to NZ media pages hoping for some relief.  But no.

First up, was Simon Bridges after his recent five-day visit to China.  He apparently "set a new standard of cringeworthiness by  ... buttered up the Chinese Communist Party" (more kindly, some might say he was naive and diplomatic).

And then,  Jacinda Ardern who is a hundred times guilty by association in the Labour Party sex scandals.

As expected, the media dropped the Bridges' story for the far juicier, and more politically damaging, sex scandals.

Sorry, Mr Bridges

Simon Bridges has accused the PM of weak and indecisive leadership and says the Coalition government is "coming apart at the seams."  Several journalists have also said the PM Jacinda Adern has been too slow in coming to decisions. 

What are their reasons for these accusations?
