Fonterra CFO Andrew Murray Resigns
Fonterra Co-operative Group chief financial officer Andrew Murray has resigned to take up a role outside the dairy giant.
So, Finance Minister Nicola Willis' little game, implying that the co-op might be cranking the domestic price up, and that she was going to meet with CEO Miles Hurrell to discuss it, was pure political theatre - and cynical politics, at that.
This led to the ridiculous spectacle of TVNZ's lightweight 'political editor' trying to doorstop Hurrell on the 6 o'clock ews about why butter costs so much.
Everyone uses dairying as a whipping boy.
It's deeply disappointing to see Willis doing the same thing.
