Damien O’Connor: NZ united on global trade
When it comes to international trade, politicians from all sides of the aisle are united, says Labour's trade spokesman Damien O'Connor.
Yes, there are some good gains for horticulture and seafood but the dairy and red meat sectors have been stumped.
The Government claims to have taken a pragmatic approach, arguing a deal is better than no deal, despite the poor result on dairy and meat.
The NZ dairy sector has effectively lost Europe under this approach.
Now will the Government take a similar approach in India where dairy will be the key point for negotiation?
