New Zealand PM returns to office says, ‘Shall we get on with it?’

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern returned to work on Monday after six weeks of parental leave with her newborn daughter.

“The last six weeks have been wonderful not only because of the birth of our healthy daughter but because we have been gifted by this cabinet, by the people of New Zealand, this time together,” Ardern said while addressing her cabinet.

“It’s really, really nice to be back amongst you all. Shall we get on with it?” she added.

Ardern has become the second elected leader to symbolize progress for women in office after Pakistan’s Benazir Bhutto in 1990.

She also shared a ‘quick photo before the cabinet meeting’ on her Instagram handle.

And we’re straight back into it. Quick photo before cabinet yesterday.
