The Herald today is headlining a story about another handout to hapu.
The opening paragraph of the report says the Government’s gift of almost $2 million to the hapu to build a plastic waka for the Rugby World Cup has drawn outrage from some MPs.
But outrage, or any response of a critical nature, is bound to be the stuff of sour-grapes politicking from pissed off Opposition MPs who wish they had thought of it first.
The money being extracted from your pockets and mine, dear constituent, is going to a good cause.
