Are they serious?
OPINION: The Greens aren’t serious people when it comes to the economy, so let’s not spend too much on their fiscal fantasies.
However, it seems that NZ is not the only country going down this lonely track.
Our cousins across the pond seem to be taking a similar route with inner-city, liberal elites and the political class wanting to impose silly political class wanting to impose silly politially correct regulations on its farming sector.
A good example is West Australia's state government, which is trying to introduce a law that will see farmers wanting to make changes on their land first having to seek approval from an 'indigenous elder'.
In practice, farmers will require such elder approval to dig a fencepost, build a new shed or even remove sediment from a dam on their proprties - all adding time and costs to such activities.
