Meanwhile Farrar has registered the Free Speech Coalition (which has backers including Business Round Table members Roger Kerr, Doug Myers and Peter Shirtcliffe as well as senior National Party members) as a third party.
It seems Davey and the National Party have decided free-speech is best left to the super-rich. I very much doubt this complaint will be upheld but it does show the attitude of the Right to working Kiwis: “STFU“. I guess they figure democracy is too important to leave in the hands of ordinary people.
Just as an aside, I wonder if this attempt has anything to do with the fact that EPMU members led the campaign to stop National’s last attempt to take all work rights from tens of thousands of workers in 2006?
