@ArchivesNZ Thank you so much to all the team working at @ArchivesNZ for making this happen! It was a really special moment to be able to present these historic images to the PM of Samoa - made even more special by the fact they feature her father, and mother. Thank you again!

So deeply shocked to hear about the past PM of Japan-Shinzo Abe. He was one of the first leaders I met when I became PM. He was deeply committed to his role but also generous & kind. My thoughts are with his wife and the people of Japan. Events like this shake us all to the core.

@coughlthom I can confirm this is a conspiracy theory. There is no lemon. I repeat, there is NO lemon.

@Jasonwalls92 A bit tardy, but a shortlist of four are up on my Facebook page now!

In case you missed the press conference today - additional Pfizer vaccines have been purchased from Denmark and will arrive in New Zealand next week. 💉✈️. Many thanks @Statsmin for the great cooperation to make this happen. Thanks too to the EU for helping to coordinate🇩🇰🇪🇺🤝🇳🇿

Additional Pfizer vaccines purchased from Spain are on their way to New Zealand today. 💉✈️ Thank you @sanchezcastejon for the great cooperation to support our vaccine programme - much appreciated! Thanks too to the EU for helping to coordinate. 🇪🇸 🇪🇺🤝🇳🇿

Democracy - the right of people to exercise a vote, have their voice heard and then have that decision upheld peacefully should never be undone by a mob. Our thoughts are with everyone who is as devastated as we are by the events of today. I have no doubt democracy will prevail.

Like so many others, I’ve been watching what’s happening in the United States. I share the sentiment of friends in the US - what is happening is wrong.

Congratulations President-elect @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris on your victory in the US Presidential election. With so many issues facing the international community, your message of unity is one we share. New Zealand looks forward to working with you both! beehive.govt.nz/release/prime-…

@Jasonwalls92 Vote. #LetsKeepMoving

@grantrobertson1 I think you’re forgetting who chairs the meeting #LeaveTheScarfAtHome

On my way home to NZ and heard the news that former Aussie PM, Bob Hawke, has passed away. I never had a chance to meet Bob, but it was easy to feel like you knew him. He was such a charismatic figure and one clearly driven by his love of people. Rest In Peace, Bob.

The person who has committed this violent act has no place here. To those in Christchurch; I encourage you to stay inside and follow the instructions of @nzpolice. The Police Commissioner will be making a public statement at 5pm. I will update everyone again later this evening.

What has happened in Christchurch is an extraordinary act of unprecedented violence. It has no place in New Zealand. Many of those affected will be members of our migrant communities – New Zealand is their home – they are us.

To those who felt the quake - GNS have confirmed their assessment that it was M6.2 and 25km SW of Taumarunui. Widely felt across central NZ. Grabbing updates from officials but in the meantime, do check on those around you!

@RuthDavidsonMSP Congratulations! It’s a journey like no other.

I salute you, @Kereru4PM #BirdOfTheYear

@rihanna @GCMandela100 @GPforEducation @MFATgovtNZ @ClaraLionelFdn Absolutely agree – education investment is the key! Keen to see an increased focus on the Pacific (we just announced $9 million to support access to education in the Pacific last week). Would love to work with GPE to increase engagement in this wonderful region.

This is huge! Congratulations Rose i.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/… e

So saddened to hear of the passing of Greg Boyed. I’ll be one of many who will have sat opposite him over the years - such a thoughtful interviewer who was quick to share a laugh. My thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues.

Congratulations @JulieAnneGenter ! So pleased to hear of the safe arrival of the newest addition to the parliamentry play group. Hope you enjoy those very special first few days.

The world has lost a great humanitarian, leader, and self proclaimed “stubborn optimist”. Rest in peace, Kofi Annan.

Huge congratulations to the @crusadersrugby ! You’ve done it again!

@mountain_goats @SamSachdevaNZ Thank you so much @mountain_goats ! PS Seeing you perform live is on my very short bucket list, so please do visit...

There are some accomplishments that are difficult to fathom - like crossing the Tasman solo in a kayak. I’m pretty sure Scott Donaldson has stunned us all. Truly amazing.

@ArchieDaRival @whaeapower @nzdodo @LittleSproutsNZ @NZClarke Thank you so much- I’m so glad I saw your beautiful handy work, and I’m so glad it’s going to have such a great home via the aunties xxx

@Damian_Barr I’m deeply concerned about the inadequate cheese experience you’ve had here. Perhaps a kiwi cheese obsessive can turn you around? @CurdNerd

My message for International Women's Day.

@ch_gruetze I am so glad it made it to her! Thanks again for caring so much about Kiwi. She’ll have to come and see one sometime!

@RebelWilson Thank you! And please have the best time here. If you need any tips for your trip, kiwis are always at the ready!
