However, Ardern has become the latest victim of the show’s controversial comedy, with her character singing “super-kiwi-socialist extra-nice Jacinda.”
In addition to Covid-19, the parody also looked at his work to ban semi-automatic weapons and increase the living wage.
Ardern was asked about it during today’s press conference, where he revealed that Auckland would move to Alert Level 1 later this week.
“I am familiar with the show, I have seen past pieces of it, for several years I think it has been very popular in the UK, so yes I have seen it.
“I’m glad I took Neve away from seeing him just in time near the end.
“I was surprised by the emphasis on the crunchy ginger.”
