Sad to say, there’s a hint The Boss might have gone crackers.
He says a ban on fireworks appears to be coming closer…
But (according to the NZ Herald) he is reluctant for the Government to impose one immediately for fear of being accused of running a “nanny state”.
So we won’t be accused of running a nanny state just yet.
We will tai-ho a tad and be accused of running a nanny state some other time.
Alf admits to being a tad bemused.
It doesn’t much matter if it doesn’t happen now.
But conditioning us to become a nanny state next year, the year after or whenever raises Alf’s hackles.
And it’s bound to require he explain himself to his true-blue mates in the Eketahuna Club.
