About Time

Finally Helen Clark has backed away from her stance that Taito Field had done nothing wrong. She has now ordered a review of the Minister’s role.

However not exactly an independent review, but one from fellow Ministers. Ha – they probably just want to compares notes about how to get $1.20/hour labouring 🙂

Meanwhile the Minister himself still thinks there is nothing wrong with paying someone $1.20 an hour while asking their mate the Minister to get him a work visa. Taito Field has said:

“If anything [inaccurate] comes in the paper you can expect a defamation suit to be laid against the paper and you will probably be talking about millions,” he said.

“I don’t know why these people feel I’m their enemy. All I have done is try and help people.”
