One law for all?

Are you?

  1. a disgraced former minister who resigned from Parliament in shame?
  2. a National MP who rents from a National minister (Judith Collins or Anne Tolley for example), claiming that expense back from the taxpayer while the minister simultaneously rents another place, again on the taxpayer’s tab?
  3. a private citizen who dares to publicly oppose a government policy?

If you answered 1 or 2, your privacy will be cited as a reason for the Government to refuse to answer questions about you.

If you answered 3, the Government will release your personal information without permission from you or even request from the media , information that is held in confidence by a ministry, which never should have released such information to the minister in the first place.

Ostensibly, that will be to get ‘all the facts on the table’ (note – that concern doesn’t apply to National MPs and ministers) but in reality it will be an attempt to bully you into silence.

Welcome to life under the Tories.
