Snouts In The Trough
Oh this is NOT going to turn out good for the Labour party no matter how the cards fall! Those close to the action are already admitting fault before the official inquiry has even started. Multiple contracts being awarded to Mahuta’s husband/cousin without a tender process, costly meetings with virtually no paperwork, for starters. He is either an expert at all sorts of different things or an expert at getting lucrative government contracts! I don’t think this is going to go down too well no matter how Mahuta et al spin it!
And what makes it worse is they have bloated the staff by over 14,000 yet STILL need to hire outside consultants??? Add this to the extraordinarily long list of failures & poor leadership for the Ardern government. It’s time to resign Jacinda Ardern!
No doubt Cindy will say……

I understand that cousin/husband also has a full time govt job while winning all the extra contracts. Mahuta claims that by declaring conflict, it goes away. She is clearly as dumb as she is lazy.
Corruption laid bare for all to see. It is what it is! And it sure as hell doesn’t pass the pub test even lol
