It was sort of funny

NewstalkZB reports:

Former Labour Minister and list MP Ginny Andersen has reshared a meme on her personal Instagram of Prime Minister Christopher Luxon and King Charles meeting at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (Chogm) in Samoa that poked fun at the shape of His Majesty’s trousers.

The former police minister has since removed the post from her social media accounts.

Luxon and Charles were attending the meeting in Apia this week, as leaders and foreign ministers from 56 Commonwealth nations came together for the annual summit. The pair snapped a photo together while there, which the Prime Minister shared on Instagram.

“King Charles III has a great love of New Zealand. It was a pleasure to have an audience with His Majesty today in Samoa,” Luxon captioned the post.

The post Andersen reshared – a meme created by the page @cindywithsign – took the picture shared by Luxon, overlaying the screenshot with a sign that labelled a clothing blunder the King had in the photo as a “king*ssy”.

“What I’m saying to you is that showing his king*ssy on main like that is just crazy [crying emoji],” the sign read.

I don’t think she needed to remove it. When do you look at the photo, it is sort of funny.

Not particularly wise for an MP to reshare it, but it is sort of funny, and done in humour not malice.
