John questions Helen Clark about actions her Government has taken to improve the economy. Miss Clark insists that the economy is doing well despite the growing budget pain experienced by New Zealanders and the deterioration in macro measures of performance. After digs from the Prime Minister and her Deputy, Michael Cullen, about National's support for private education, John points out that, for the sake of comparison, it was Michael Cullen who actually went to a private school. [2:52] The now-infamous "diddums" response from Helen Clark follows that exchange. [3:45] Later in the exchange [6:00], John asks Helen Clark if she is aware that recent reports show families are being forced by economic pressure to ration milk and other critical grocery items when feeding their children. Helen Clark again insists that families are better off under Labour.

I am an Italian and this is the first time I have watched this, I find this to be interesting very different from the way us Europeans operate in terms of economy, convergence, Eurozone management. Although the EU has the biggest economy in the world The EU has a few economic problems such as rising inflation etc. But we see EU countries 2004/2007 are converging very nicely. I like New Zealand I will have to go there soon
I just think NZ is a great country, and it's a shame that these very serious issues are being trivialised, in what should be a serious parliamentary debate.
you could not be more correct.
I don't know why Helen looks so smug - with more and more kiwis leaving nz for australia, she's clearly run out of ideas if 'diddums' is the best she can come up with.
lol.

I don't like the woman, but i must say she was having fun.
not really the place to be "having fun" - she should concentrateon her job. I cant stand her either.
