Shane Jones challenges Ardern to appear before Covid Inquiry

Shane Jones - Jacinda Ardern news

Government Minister Shane Jones has posted a fiery social-media video accusing former Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern of deflecting blame for New Zealand’s 2022–23 Covid-era unrest and demanding she testify at the ongoing Royal Commission of Inquiry into the pandemic response.

In the two-minute clip, Jones said Ardern is “basically blaming the Russians, Putin, when he’s not busy troubling Ukraine, for being responsible for the COVID protests in New Zealand; for being responsible for distorting people’s perceptions about her government.”

Jones dismissed that suggestion as absurd, adding, “Oh for God’s sake, if you really feel so strongly about that Covid experience Jacinda, come home. Stop hiding in universities. Stop promoting a book that is a distortion of what actually happened to your country.”

Jones said Ardern “owes” Labour supporters and the wider public a full explanation.

“You owe it to your own party to not have fled,” he says. “And you owe it to Kiwis if you feel strongly about misinformation to the extent that it’s compromising the integrity, or indeed the functioning of our State, to come back and appear before the Covid Inquiry.”

Jones concludes by challenging the former leader, who has been based at Harvard University since leaving politics last year, to place her account under oath. “Then we’ll really see what sort of book you can write,” he says, asserting her recently-released memoir A Different Kind of Power presents a selective and distorted version of events.

The Covid Inquiry, chaired by Justice Geoffrey Venning, is scheduled to resume public hearings in July.

  1. Ardern WEF implanted PM of NZ
    Is in self imposed exile in the US
    Because it is not safe for it to live here
    It has destroyed peoples lives and the economy which has never and will not recover any time soon
    And its future
    Many small businesses the backbone of democracy have not recovered which was the target of the agenda and objective
    Suicides
    A very despicable deceitful and low life untrustworthy individual
    But all were implicated complicit in collusion or collaboration
    If not through tacitness
    Like Christchurch which has not gone away
    Thank God nobody was forced under duress to take these unsafe unproven and completely unnecessary debilitating life threatening clot shots albeit to keep food on the table
    A very dark and sinister chapter in NZ that will go down in infamy as a country beguiled and propagandized into submission at the hands of those elected to act in their best interests and in dereliction their foremost duty being to protect them from harm

  2. Why no mention of the democide Jones? Why didn’t you rally around Barry Young when he presented “state evidence” of the democide? You are by association now part of the cover up and gaslighting going on around this atrocity.

    A new survey has found that seventy percent of Tennessee embalmers are still seeing the white fibrous clots in one out of every six corpses, and thirty-nine percent of the Tennessee embalmers are seeing a fourteen percent increase in Infant Death in 2025 when compared to recent pre-covid/jab years. This survey would be consistence with embalmers throughout the Zionist controlled collective west.

  3. Get her scrawny lying a*se back here and make her pay for what she’s done to NZ.
    We will never forget.
    We will never forgive.

  4. At the end of the day Shane has voiced the peoples opinion, puts her, name I will not say, under the correct light. I hope the news channel she was lately on will see it and ask her harder questions.

  5. Dead right on the first comment, add in ‘we will hunt you down, dont know what a women is’ hipkins.
    I think Winston was the only one to go down and talk to the protesters, most of whom were there with genuine concerns regarding the mRNA gene therapy jab, as well as representatives from NZDSOS. Where were all the other gutless MP’s, then we had comments from labour like ‘river of filth’, bloody disgrace.

  6. Good one Shane. Thanks for saying what we think. She’s a disgrace as are labour and other supporting mp’s of that era.
