A hurry up!

Written by  The Hound

OPINION: PM Chris Luxon is getting pinged lately for rolling out the old 'we're still a new government' line when challenged on a perceived lack of progress on various policy promises.

After 18 months in office, that just won't cut it anymore.

Federated Farmers is the latest to call time on the current mob occupying the Beehive, demanding action on National's pre-election promise to change KiwiSaver rules to help young farmers to get a foot on the farming ladder.

The Nats might be struggling to remember all the promises they chucked out last election, but Feds dairy chair Richard McIntyre remembers.

"They made that campaign promise in Morrinsville, but 18 months later there has been no action."

The Hound agrees, it's time for a change in policy to give young farmers a tangible pathway to ownership and investment in agriculture.
