Dodgy!
OPINION: If you believe Maori Party president John Tamihere’s claim that “nothing dodgy” occurred at Manurewa Marae during the last election, the Hound has a bridge to sell you.
In fact, one correspondent took time to write to this old mutt’s editor expressing these concerns after our story on these in the last issue. The frustrated farmer was reluctant to publish his letter stating, “It is probably a waste of time publishing... as the Worksafe gestapo are determined to have us all wearing nappies regardless…. Unfortunately the rules they are forcing upon us are insulting, highly inconvenient and time wasting.” Your old mate suggests that WorkSafe NZ still has a fair bit of work to do convincing farmers about the merits of its new onfarm health and safety regulations.
