Prime Minister, it has been a privilege to have served you as a Beehive staffer. I've seen you operate behind closed doors in some of our country's darkest days: 15 March, Whakaari / White Island, and now through COVID. I'm in awe of your energy, your strength, your empathy, and your ability to critically analyse thousands of policy briefings that come before you. I stand ready to serve you now as a member of your caucus.
