Woke joke!

Written by  The Hound

OPINION: Speaking of wasting taxpayer money, your canine crusader almost choked on his dog tucker when he read a recent report by the NZ Taxpayers Union on spending by the Health Research Council.

Examples of grants in 2021 include:

  • $1.2 million examining the lived experiences of intersectional ethnic minority youth
  • $1.1 million using the lunar calendar to help Māori connect with their environment
  • $387,000 providing gay teenagers with "decolonising and mātauranga Māori-informed bodies of knowledge"

Your old mate tends to agree with Williams' claim that "New Zealanders stuck in surgery wait lists or seeking access to life-saving drugs, will be insulted by this waste of crucial health funding dollars".
