Jacinda Ardern was making headlines globally even before she unexpectedly won government for Labor in New Zealand late last year.

At 37 she’s the youngest female leader in the world, and now expecting a baby, both facts that have sometimes attracted more attention than her ambitious economic vision for New Zealand.

Prime Minister Ardern met Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to today for talks which focused on, among other things, New Zealand’s growing frustration with what it feels is unfair treatment of its citizens living here.
