Mum bailed out at till... by Kiwi PM

-

A STRESSED mother who had forgotten her purse had her supermarke­t shopping paid for by the woman behind her – New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern.

The kind act was revealed by a Twitter user who wrote: ‘She paid for my friend’s shopping when she had forgotten her purse and had two screaming kids in tow.’

Miss Ardern, 38, who has a baby girl, said she helped the woman ‘because she was a mum’. Last month she won praise for her compassion­ate response to the Christchur­ch mosque shootings in which 50 people were killed.
