which, to be fair, does not make it that dissimilar to other New Zealand parties

The others are just better at hiding it, or keep closer ranks.

All this is entertaining and great material for Māori bashers

Gotta get in there and keep the Murray’s in their place!

Christ. Teachers, nurses, firefighters.

Just give them whatever they ask for.

The article helpfully left that detail out… which kind of makes it smell a bit like a hit-piece.

Iwi are relatively small too, so everyone is somebody’s son/aunt/cousin… so finding someone within one’s iwi to do a job is always going to be a relative.

At what point does one think to themselves that they’ll help their son grift the government for $133k and think no one will notice?

Especially when said son is apparently a belligerent dick and will definitely get noticed.

That Jesus dude in those gospels was pretty rad.

Can’t figure out who the Christians keep going on about though.

More like siphoning public assets into the stock portfolios of our mates.

They don’t care.

Well they should have thought of that before being disabled. NZ taxpayers don’t want to be paying for poor choices. Except mine of course, my poor choices weren’t my fault.

Cabinet ministers, probably.

Christ. Could they please just stop being actually evil?

Apparently some of the contracts also require you to stay in the company accommodation, so they get to claw back most of what they pay anyway.

It’s exploitation all the way down.

Picking apples would be a better user of his time too.

Douchebaggery from the Prime Douchebag?

Quelle surprise.

The real WTF is why that PoS was even visiting NZ.

For what though? Sodastreams?

Meanwhile at casa del Luxon:

If I can’t employ them and pay minimum wage or sell them something what good are they to me?

A person gets that rich because their morals allow them to exploit other people.

Once they are that rich, they can get anything they want, they no longer have the “thrill of the hunt” and substitute it for the “thrill of the forbidden”.

TIL Harris doesn’t know the difference between communism and facism.

Nah that’s too arabby, it’ll be arm bands.

JFC, teachers, firefighters, health workers: pay them whatever they want.

Came here to note that. But was going to go down the fake post from one of his handlers route instead.
