Bold intro to the campaign launch with a spoken word/dramatic visual/musical piece, followed by MC Oscar Kightly reminding us to #LetsKeepMoving and then Tami Neilson singing to us to have mercy. Nice one @nzlabour
#ReturnArdern2020 #TwoTicksLabour
He ataahua nui. The kapa haka group with their brace of haka and waiata was he ataahua nui. #LetsKeepMoving #ReturnArdern2020 #TwoTicksLabour
Ka pai Oscar for trying to do a Jacinda in two minutes on what the @nzlabour led government achieved over the last three years. #LetsKeepMoving #ReturnArdern2020 #TwoTicksLabour
In great @nzlabour tradition, @NZClarke is gonna be the bloke to introduce his Mrs, by giving a "character reference for the better half to reapply for the job". Describes it as "a nice gentle drive to careening down the road on loose metal without seatbelts". #LetsKeepMoving
Cabinet papers being read in bed is worse than toast crumbs according to @NZClarke
Do you know what it's like to have a disagreement with the world's most eloquent leader? Clarke does. So to end the floundering, he announced three new roads and a tunnel. #LetsKeepMoving
And @NZClarke announces to the stage Neve Te Aroha 's favourite parent each evening and his not-quite-wife, @jacindaardern
That was a tumeke speech, Clarke. #LetsKeepMoving
@jacindaardern begins her speech by thanking @NZClarke & telling us he never lets her read anything he has written for good reason. She thanks the attendees, members and volunteers for all their work. #LetsKeepMoving
Reflects on three years ago on what she could imagine three years on: a pandemic & lockdown, having a child, going into coalition with both NZ First & the Greens (as a support partner). #LetsKeepMoving
Acknowledged John Key and Bill English as good financial managers, but after nine years, oyr society had taken too much of a hit with homelessness, people living in cars, etc.

We needed a new way. A new government. We needed to #ChangeTheGovt. And we did.
#LetsKeepMoving
We have made big decisions. We have made hard decisions.

We said we wanted to build a country where children grew up free from poverty.

In the first hundred days a family support package was in place.

@jacindaardern is listing so much more than I can tweet. #LetsKeepMoving
Oh my gosh, @jacindaardern just finished listing achievements of the @nzlabour led govt, and said there is so much more to do.
We did not achieve everything. But we need to accept that, explain why, and NEVER GIVE UP. #LetsKeepMoving
We may not have built all the houses we wanted, but we will not give up trying. #LetsKeepMoving
We have learned a lot of lessons from the Christchurch massacre, Whakaari and from #Covid19.
We would prefer this was not the Covid election. But there is no denying that Covid has changed NZ, and therefore Covid will change what we talk about in #Election2020
#LetsKeepMoving
We have never wavered from the view that the best economic response was a strong health response.
The five point plan will dominate the next three years. #LetsKeepMoving
This week's unemployment rate of 4% has shown we have soften the impact of #Covid19.
@jacindaardern received a letter from a child where Lunches in Schools has started. This child is happy her friend now gets lunch at school & she doesn't have to worry for her. #LetsKeepMoving
#Covid19 has made us worry about a lot of friends. We will not allow, on @nzlabour's watch the loss of potential economic scarring can cause.
If Labour's returned to govt, they will support 40,000 Covid affected employees with subsidies to the employing business. #LetsKeepMoving
Find out more about how the next @nzlabour led government will do this below. #LetsKeepMoving https://twitter.com/nzlabour/status/1291917082125201408?s=19
There is no castles response to #Covid19 but the next @nzlabour government will keep debt managed without compromising education and health and other areas important to society high and dry. #LetsKeepMoving https://twitter.com/nzlabour/status/1291917111854379008?s=19
I see a typo above. Apologies.

This election is about leadership and if we keep the team we've got or change teams.
This team has learned so much.
We have made hard decisions with kindness and empathy, but there is more to do, so let's keep going, lets do more, #LetsKeepMoving
