description John Key was a prime minister of two halves — brilliant at home; inconsequential on the world stage. He acknowledged the latter with his self-inflicted epigram that he was ‘a junior world leader’. Key was not wired for global diplomacy. He did the requisite obligations, but perfunctorily until he engaged with New Zealand’s bids for the United Nations Security Council and for Helen Clark to become the UN secretary-general. Key’s oft-reported ‘good personal relationship’ with Barack Obama fails scrutiny — there was no oft-heralded presidential visit to New Zealand. Nor, ever a second game of golf.
