Dying in the water

Written by 

Labour is proposing a water tax, so who do you blame? National, of course.

ACT leader David Seymour says National’s weakness and inaction on water has allowed Labour to fill a political void, whacking farmers and growers while they’re at it.

He claims National could have preempted Labour’s announcement with a water policy that protected both the environment and farmers.

Instead, the Nats’ complacency has led to farmers being threatened with punitive, politically determined charges that will flow on to consumers.
