Your canine crusader notes that Red Radio (RNZ), still smarting about the change of government, recently ran 'an in-depth investigation' about a potential lobbying campaign to persuade the Government to restart live animal exports that has been launched by key players in the agriculture industry.

However, nowhere in said 'investigation' did RNZ ask how much money both SAFE and the SPCA had spent on pressuring the previous government to implement the live export ban, which they both furiously lobbied for.
