YES Winston for foreign affairs minister. Finally we have an articulate, intelligent man who can represent us overseas and make us proud. He is knowledgeable in foreign affairs and his experience in dealing with his counterparts in other countries will restore our reputation in this area 🙏❤

[@チョンブリーラームトルテ]

Can't agree more, he actually knows his stuff, and this job is so important now for New Zealand. To finally have someone experienced and as you say, articulate and intelligent back in the role after three years is a huge relief. He's been an outstanding foreign minister twice already, and I'm looking forward to seeing him in action again.
