This interviewer demonstrating how to cut through political BS is a thing of beauty

Watch as Newshub’s political editor, Tova O’Brien, demonstrates just how a political interview should be done.

The unfortunate former MP on the skewer is Jami-Lee Ross, founder of right-wing party Advance NZ, which was firmly trounced in the New Zealand election by Jacinda Ardern‘s Labour Party.

Buckle up – it’s quite a ride.

The former National Party politician had effectively left the Tories to form UKIP – and he clearly paid the price.

These reactions say what the rest of us were thinking.

We could do with more like her taking apart the liars and charlatans in charge of Covid and Brexit. https://t.co/tgeXfIXDCq
