Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announces $5m package for Whakatane and Westland.
White Island tour operators facing two investigations into the death of 16 tourists could seek assistance from a $5 million Government fund to support businesses.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern on Monday said ministers had decided to create a $5 million fund for businesses in Whakatane, affected by a fatal eruption the volcanic island, and Westland, affected by storm damaged roads.
Speaking at her weekly post-Cabinet press conference, Ardern said a WorkSafe investigation into the White Island deaths could take up to a year.
What is the difference between this disaster and it’s affect on the businesses in the area, and the affect on the Taranaki oil and gas industry she destroyed with her stupid virtue signaling by her captains call last year?
Might it be the majority of business owners in the latest tragedy are of a certain skin colour? If so, then it’s a very poor example to set for future incidences that are bound to happen.
Hypocrisy, is that Cindys first or second name?
Hyprocrsy Cindy!
Cindy hyprocrisy!
To save confusion try this – Prime R Sole/Financial R Sole/Deputy R Sole etc. If there any non R Soles in the Coalition of Clowns then use their birth names.
Hmm I see the vote buying has well and truly begun. Vile creature.
You are correct Mike. The question to always keep in mind is: What’s in it for Cindy?
Sorry to go on about this, Ed…. but I WISH you would acknowledge the source(s ) in your posts. An opinion piece is obviously written by you, of course, but when you repeat an article from somewhere, I think it should be acknowledged as such.
I agree. Of course I can google around, but why can’t you just save us the trouble?
What about the students of the **charter schools** that this government destroyed?
Do THEY get a handout too?
Silly me – of course not, they don’t (yet) **vote**.
