Like many members around this House, I have friends and family around the world and they have been in contact on a regular basis, and they have all said a similar thing: "We wish the leaders in our country took the same approach as the leaders in yours." I think of my old rugby mates in Ireland who continue to face hundreds of cases a day, and yet some say that the only reason that we have achieved what we have achieved is because we are an island nation. Well, I would point those people to Ireland—similar population to us, similar population density, and yet they continue to see hundreds of cases a day. We are incredibly fortunate to be in this country. It all comes down, in addition to strong leadership, to acting hard and acting early—but it comes down to the contribution of every single New Zealander. We see what's happened overseas: when there is a lockdown there are protests. But here, we got on with it, and now we are reaping the benefits, and I think that is something that all of us, regardless of our political party, can reflect on with pride as we head into this holiday season.
