Labour Supports NZ/India FTA
National's decision to ‘dribble’ information about the NZ/India to Labour contributed to the delay in it deciding to supported the FTA.
Agriculture Minister Damien O'Connor's proposed fertiliser tax would have been a great way to raise millions from farmers but would it reduce emissions? We don't think so.
The Government seem to have no idea how it will put a price on ag emissions.
This has given National the chance to accuse O'Connor of "sitting in his office dreaming up all sorts of ludicrous taxes" which farmers don't have an option to avoid or mitigate against.
O'Connor is now putting the idea to rest, stating the obvious by saying there's no support among farmers.
