Come on, is it even a surprise the Luxon staffer who secretly accepted law change orders from Fonterra & Z is Matt Burgess, NZ Initiative?

The same government that voted against fair pay for women and want to remove 8,000 people's jobs to balance their books increased the pay for friends by huge percentages. They are truly not fit to govern https://t.co/qzVqp5Dap5
