A fine expansion. Hook is interesting and sourced appropriately, no copyvio concerns, image is obviously out of copyright. I'm afraid I'm not too up on NZ politics except I'd rather live somewhere where someone like this runs the country instead of someone like this. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 20:25, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
