Something like you then Sabine? Entitled or what? Are you above the law driving at 138 km/h - or do you think you are better than the rest? It's no wonder that NZ has a bad rate of road deaths and injuries, with Kiwis' fatal combination of attitudes: Go ...
This is a deliberate policy by National to try and overwhelm ministries and agencies with work so that they can also say at some point how "inefficient" they are at doing their main tasks. My wife has worked as a contractor for the last couple of years ...
Why have the two beastly ministers largely responsible for the agencies/ministries concerned, Brownlee & Joyce, not been put under the spotlight of the investigation here? Surely major "initiatives" such as these would have received ministerial consent, if...
