She may not have enough time in a single term, but I expect to see Ardern ruin New Zealand's economy with her post Keynesian and genuinely socialist (nationalization of industry) economic views just as Trump is tying to ruin the United State's economy with his incoherent economic views.

If Macron succeeds, it wouldn't surprise me if France has the best economic growth in a few years.

Interesting although I think she would look like a conservative if heaven forbid Corbyn wins the next UK election since if you want to talk about left wing illiterate he resembles it far more than Ardern.  And if he is not scary enough, Melenchon if heaven forbid wins in 2022 would turn France into a basketcase.  Yes more left wing than what New Zealand is used to, but there are worse options elsewhere.  At the same time the fact she scraped by might temper the government from going too far knowing if they do they will lose 2020 whereas if it was a landslide I think the reforms would be much bigger.

Maybe I've confused Corbyn's economic policies for Ardern's, but I don't remember much difference between the two of them.
