(National Party media release)
Labour needs to explain why it is severely restricting the number of dairy farm workers allowed into the country for no apparent reason, National’s Immigration spokesperson Erica Stanford [pictured] and Agriculture spokesperson Barbara Kuriger say.
“Last year the dairy sector requested border exceptions for 1500 international dairy workers that were urgently needed for this year’s calving season,” Ms Stanford says.
“But the Government only granted 300, meaning this crucial sector will be short staffed and overworked for yet another season.
“Agriculture is the backbone of our economy, but farmers have had enough of the constant roadblocks from this Labour Government – this time in the refusal to grant border exceptions for urgently-needed workers.”
Mrs Kuriger says hardworking farmers have helped to keep the rest of the economy afloat, but are being ignored by a Government that doesn’t care about the rural sector.
“With border restrictions loosening, there’s simply no rationale for continuing to turn down border exceptions for agriculture workers who are critical to our economy.
“Farmers are suffering from significant stress and mental health issues. Needlessly forcing them to go through yet another season critically understaffed is only going to make this problem worse.
“Labour talks a big game when it comes to kindness and mental health, yet they are failing to deliver critical workers to an essential industry. The Government should take the opportunity to actually help our farmers instead of just talking about it.”
That’s because the bloody idiots believe that everything they eat is generated in the back room of the supermarket. There critical workers list includes “office professionals”
Wake up people for God’s sake!! The government is NOT INTERESTED in helping farmers or small business. The REMOVAL of these factions is their aim – the collapse of the economy is their aim. It is a freemason premise – “out of chaos will come order.” Their order – the New World Order – reduced population (the vax), land given to big corporates for control, farmers and the rest of us herded into cities. YES, WE ARE CATTLE. A universal wage as we slave for the controlling entity. We complain, our wages get cut. Women chosen for breeding, children removed for horrific purposes, old and handicapped – “useless eaters” – euthanised. We have always been slaves to the masonic imperialism/capitalism, but this is going to be far far worse, their ultimate plan coming slowly but surely to fruition. OPEN YOUR EYES! Ardern and the rest fully know it.
We are fucked, the world will keep rolling into dystopia blade runner type world.
Spot on, Robin …………… the people of NEW ZEALAND need to stop watching television (TV 1 and TV 3), reading msm newspapers, and listening to the lies and b/s spouted by jabcinda and her mob.
And then, get the real news as to what auntie jabcinda (the herr schwab stooge) is doing to our country; WW and BFD being two worthy sources of the truth.
NEW ZEALAND is being “driven down the wrong road” by a tyrant – with the majority of the populace blindly believing the country is in good hands !!!
NEW ZEALANDERS ……….. time to wake up, stand up, and spread the word.
Thanks hyden. No, we are not fucked – yet. But the population needs to wake up – that is the major requirement.
Erica Stanford would have made a excellent party leader imho. She’s smart, communicates well and doesn’t take any crap from anybody. It seems that she wasn’t keen on getting into the race for whatever reason, and that’s understandable. Given that most of Ardern’s support is from women, Erica would have attracted many of those lost to Labour back into the fold. Keep an eye out for the next Roy Morgan poll results. It will rattle many cages. This poll has consistently been the most reliable one out there. When a new centre right party appears on the scene (which it will) Labour is in deep trouble, I believe – there’s a huge number of voters out there totally disillusioned with ‘all the bastards’ in parliament, who would jump at an alternative to what they currently see as their only option ie not voting at all (in protest) in 2023. Interesting times.
For information to back up my comment above, please see Liz Gunn “Thugs in Wellington” on Rumble, Free New Zealand, interview with Colin Wightman who built the shower units for Wellington protesters which were destroyed by police. At 39 minutes Colin gives a run-down on the NWO/UN plan as mentioned above, with all relative facts and how this is being instituted in New Zealand. It is a must view.
