Money for photo ops, cuts to health

Just a quick question: Why is John Key giving $300,000 to the All Whites’ World Cup campaign when they’re already making a $6 million profit from the $10 million they get for qualifying?

I like a bit of football but that doesn’t mean I blindly support money for it when there are more needy causes.

Why is there money for this while elder care is getting cut, while beneficiary training is being cut, while hospital beds are getting cut, while prisoner rehabilitation is getting cut, while adult education is getting cut?

Looks like we’re paying for some more John Key photo ops while ideological cuts are made to successful programmes.
