Groundswell ramps up ‘Quit Paris’ campaign across New Zealand
Groundswell is ramping up its 'Quit Paris' campaign with signs going up all over the country.
Last issue we asked Rural News readers if they thought farming leaders have stood up enough to the Government over new regulations.
A massive 86.1% said "no"!
When asked why they believed this, many said farming leaders like Federated Farmers, DairyNZ, Beef+Lamb NZ and HortNZ are too quick to compromise with the Government.
Others said the leadership does not stand up strongly enough for farmers or were not consulting with farmers enough.
A further 13.9% said that farming leaders are doing enough to stand up to the Government with some claiming the Government is not listening to them.
This week's poll follows on from this and asks:
