Another farm death

Last night the Nats passed their widely ridiculed health and safety legislation.

That legislation classifies most forms of farming as a low risk, farmers are excluded from the new rules.

This morning a Waikato farm worker died in a workplace accident. Sincere condolences to his family and friends.

More than 120 people have been killed on farms since 2008, and around 53,000 injured.

When corners are cut people die.
