But that's not the kind of thing we look at closely. There's a long standing narrative in New Zealand about how National is the party you turn to for competency, notwithstanding a stark lack of evidence to support this.

It's not a National Party thing. For an ostensibly egalitarian society, NZ has a peculiar "management elite" stratum, the members of which just shuffle places on corporate boards and charity management teams and arts-and-culture committees and local government councils. Boag is a perfect example.
