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.
OPINION: Last week, Greenpeace lit up Fonterra's Auckland headquarters with 'messages from the common people' - that the sector is polluting the environment.
And probably eager to claim that people involved in the dairy sector support their misguided campaign, Greenpeace roped in a mythical 'Gail'.
A Greenpeace statement said that these messages included that of 'Gail', who apparently said "With a dairy farm background I feel sad our dairy industry continues to pollute".
Is that the best Greenpeace could muster, someone claiming 'a dairy farm background'!
