NZ Prime Minister takes part in nationwide Secret Santa!

A nationwide Secret Santa is a great idea! But what would you do if you drew your nation’s leader?
New Zealand’s new Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern has confirmed that she is one of the 4,000 people taking part in this year’s NZ Secret Santa!
Ms Ardern announced her participation in BZ’s Twitter Secret Santa in a tweet, in which she disclosed that she is a “ridiculous lover of Christmas”.
Whoever draws Ms Ardern might take into account that she is a proud feminist, keen DJ and her cat Paddles recently passed away in a car crash.
Ms Ardern is NZ’s youngest Prime since 1856.
For those who don’t know, Secret Santa involves people buying a (usually small) gift for a recipient drawn at random, author the revealing who it is from.
In this iteration, people were asked to register their Twitter name via NZ Post, then told which Twitter user they are buying for (approx cost $10).
NZ’s Twitter Secret Santa was started in 2010 by Sam Ealton-Waters.
