While i am not totally against this government (they have made a couple of okay changes), they do have to be dreaming if they think the general kiwi population are going to sit back and let them go against some of our key 'from the heart' beliefs.
Specifically the mining, but there are other issues as well. I realise that yes the money would be useful, but at what cost?
Summing things up at the moment they are suddenly okay with killing whales and mining our national parks....next it will be nuclear power!! SERIOUSLY - WHAT ARE THEY THINKING! I know there is more to it than saying it like that, but you just don't mess with matters of the heart!!
There is also all this guff lately about trying to make money so we're as rich as Australia. HELLO....We are not Australia, why on earth would we want to be like them? If we were that desperate why not just become a part of Australia and be done with it (and NO, funnily enough i am not for that idea either!)
