"It seems not even an earthquake can rattle New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern after her “ice cool” reaction to a 5.8 magnitude tremor was captured on live television.

Ms Ardern was mid-conversation with Channel Three’s Newshub host Ryan Bridge on Monday morning when the screen began to shake.

"We're just having a bit of an earthquake here," she nonchalantly declared.

Ms Ardern was being interviewed in the executive government building in Wellington known as "the Beehive" for its distinctive shape when it hit.

“Quite a decent shake here. If you see things moving behind me," she said.

The camera shot shakes as Ms Ardern looks around to judge her safety, smiling throughout.

"The Beehive moves a little more than most."

Mr Bridge asks if she is safe to proceed, yet she insists there is nothing to worry about.

"It's just stopped. No, we're fine. I'm not under any hanging lights, I look like I'm in a structurally sound place."

The strong earthquake was centred 30km north west of Levin, a town around an hour's drive north of the New Zealand capital.

It was felt most sharply around the South Taranaki Bight, and the closest major town, Wellington, some 100 kilometres south.

Dozens took to social media shortly after in awe of Ms Ardern’s calm and collective response.

“Robust foundations and ice cool composure from our Queen,” one person wrote on Twitter.

“Why am I not surprised that Jacinda Ardern casually takes an earthquake interrupting her interview in her stride"

Jeez - if this keeps up - she'll be the Next Messiah..

Anyway back to the subject of St Jacinta's latest:-

"Ah, so - this is the NEW assault on penalty rates... how very cunning are these Right Wing Leftist Laborites under Horse-Teeth What's-Er-Name, eh?  Ah, yes - JACINTA THE GREAT!

Get everyone working four days @ 9.5 hours.... and you can't 'discriminate' by DEMANDING that one who works Mon-Thur be paid less than one who works Fri-Mon.... or that one who works Fri-Mon be paid more for the same hours worked...

There, My Lord - THERE is your enemy!  Inside every politician hides an Adolph Stalin or a Jozep Hitler.... and the peasants will do their bidding....

(hello!!)   Cool  (nailed it in one, Grappler)...."

What a win-win for business, getting rid of penalty rates and ensuring seven days a week all in one - thus effectively reducing average pay per week -must have been a good donation in there somewhere... or is it St Jacinta The Terminally Naive?

NEVER trust a politician bearing gifts.

I wonder how much the voters will remember come election time.  Nu Zulland has a long history of being economically down for the ordinary people, regardless of its produce etc - this just looks like another 'let's make the wage earners competitive' nonsense.

Someone said that the Libs (etc) were obvious wolves, but Labor especially in its new guise(s), was a wolf in sheep's clothing.  The WW II Diggers knew that when Labor politicians promised to do something about wharfies etc slowing down supplies, while being paid huge wages while the Diggers got by on a few shillings... one of those diggers said you could expect nothing better from politicians living off the fattest in the land.

On another note - so much for women bringing any 'new perspectives' to the political table - sure they do - more of the same old venality and self-interest and sell-out of the voter.   

I'm afraid St Jacinta has serious feet of clay.
