Strange bedfellows
OPINION: Two types of grifters have used the sale of Fonterra's consumer brands as a platform to push their own agendas - under the guise of 'caring about the country'.
While government agencies and people were busy protecting lives and property from floods, Greenpeace was calling for a reduction in cow numbers claiming that intensive dairying is causing climate change.
Sorry greenies, you are way off target. It was the sheer volume of rainfall, coupled with poor investment in infrastructure that put many streets and neighbourhoods under water.
And no amount of Greenpeace propaganda will change that!
