OPINION: A mate of yours truly reckons that ACT agriculture spokesman Mark Cameron may be overdoing his 'I'm a farmer' schtick a little bit too much.
In every press release or statement made by Cameron there is always a reference of him being a "Ruawai dairy farmer."
As the Hound's mate points out, Cameron is currently a fulltime MP earning in excess of $180k a year and if he is still farming then he is not doing his taxpayer funded job properly.
He also reckons - rather facetiously - that Cameron's constant reference to himself as a "farmer" would be a bit like National leader Chris Luxon continuously saying he is "Air NZ's chief executive" (whoops) or PM Jacinda Ardern declaring that she is a "Morrinsville fish and chip wrapper" every time she makes a public utterance.
Take a hint Mr Cameron and give it a rest!
