Judith Collins comments on the party s review into the election result.
OPINION:
The National Party s determination to keep the juicy bits of the review into its abysmal election result secret has led it to Harry Potter lengths. MPs can enter the Room of Secrets, in an undisclosed location in Parliament, to read the report.

In the midst of figuring out who I was in the aftermath of surviving violence myself, Wanda Maximoff became my problematic fave.

Though
was always a show about the Avengers’ Sokovian juggernaut confronting the stifling grief that’s been plaguing her since she first showed up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the series was also the world’s introduction to Teyonah Parris’ Monica Rambeau, the now-adult daughter of Maria Rambeau who first appeared in
