| Subject: LOL: 'Super-Kiwi-socialistic-empire-of-Jacinda': Jacinda Ardern puppet appears as Mary Poppins on UK's Spitting Image Sun Oct 04, 2020 6:55 pm | |
| Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has appeared as Mary Poppins in an episode of UK puppet satire Spitting Image.
The caricature puppet version of Ardern was part of a sketch that mocked the New Zealand approach to fighting the Covid-19 pandemic.
In the sketch, two people are sat outside a cafe, praising the freedoms currently experienced by New Zealanders compared to the rest of the world.
"What a fantastic day in New Zealand - meat pies, a ginger crunch and a positive balance of trade with China,” one says, before another replies “I know, but sometimes I think things here could be more fantastic.”
