Jones is a controversial force in the new Government, with his nakedly pro-mining stance criticised for being anti-environment. His meetings with industry heavyweights, including those in the commercial fishing sector, have led to accusations of conflicts of interest.
In one instance, Jones, also the Fisheries Minister, asked officials to develop a Cabinet paper on overhauling cameras on boats, after a request from a fishing boss who is one of his biggest campaign donors. Under the new Government, New Zealand has backed out of a proposal to restrict seamount trawling in the South Pacific.
Should be the end of his political career. It won’t be though.
Remember Tuku Morgan’s boxer shorts?
NZ First out there doing blatant corruption while their voter base goes down rabbit holes looking for conspiracies in the World Economic Forum and vaccines and trans people.
It boggles the mind, like your actual conspiracies are right there, you’re voting for them.
Appallingly transparent.
Corrupt
Please include the word corruption in the headlines when posting stories like this. I know the press refuses to point out the blatant corruption but we should not be limiting ourselves like they do.
