SFF joins the slaughter
Meat processor and exporter Silver Fern Farms Ltd has joined fellow South Island-based meat company Alliance Group in reporting a big loss for the past year.
The Hound's confidante says their double act was confirmed when McCarthy recently issued a media release – under the guise of MIE – backing everything the frequently absent MP for Northland has outlandishly claimed (under parliamentary privilege) about the SFF merger deal. But this mate also reckons the chances of McCarthy and Peters ever formally teaming up is zero – each of their egos is so big they couldn't fit in the same room at the same time.
