Don't hold back!
OPINION: ACT MP Mark Cameron isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but he certainly calls it how he sees it, holding nothing back when ‘climate scientists’ had a crack at Kiwi farmers recently:
Things have got so bad that Hort NZ chief executive Nadine Tunley sent a recent message to growers defending the report’s title: Aotearoa Horticulture Action Plan.
“I have received some mixed feedback on the use of Aotearoa in the action plan’s title,” Tunley wrote.
“The choice of title was made by the Government, which initiated the plan that has been completed by our industry, working with Māori… and others with an interest in advancing our industry.”
She went on to try and further placate (rather unsuccessfully in this old mutt’s view) with this final claim: “… there is increasing emphasis on the use of te reo Māori as part of the Government’s responsibilities under the Treaty of Waitangi.”
