Just finishing up a few days of meetings in the US and realise I have just this one photo to show for it! I’ve been here meeting with tech companies and academics (such as those pictured here from Stanford University) to talk about the ongoing work of the Christchurch

It’s been three years since we were all able to gather in person for Koroneihana at Turangawaewae. It was a privilege to be there alongside the team, and to acknowledge the work of Kingi Tūheitia. There are just some things that are never the same unless they are in person,!

This week we announced a big milestone for New Zealand as we continue our action on climate change. Just under half of our greenhouse gas emissions come from agriculture. Till now, we haven’t tackled these emissions in the same way we have for other sectors. When we came into

Happy to be in Viet Nam alongside an excellent group of New Zealand businesses, all keen to grow our trade opportunities here! We’ve increased our exports to Viet Nam by more than 40% in the last five years, and we’re keen to grow that further. I’ll be here for the next few days

Happy International Women’s Day! I am exceptionally proud to work alongside these amazing Labour MPs. They put their heart and soul into their work, determined to leave New Zealand a better place for everyone, including those who come after us. To the women who came before

There’s a few things about our parliament that I think are pretty special, including that every few years young people from around the country come to parliament as youth MPs and as members of the gallery, and take part in full mock sessions of the house. Meet William who grew

There’s not many public servants I have got to know as well as Dr Ashley Bloomfield. In every sense of the word - through his tireless dedication, his focus on people, his calm and considered approach - he has been a true public servant. He has been central to our COVID success

This evening I had the chance to speak with the Chancellor of Germany, Olaf Scholz. The situation in Ukraine dominated our conversation. We talked about the need for an ongoing and coordinated effort internationally on sanctions, humanitarian aid and support for refugees. We also
