Former Alliance Minister Bunkle arrested for shop lifting

Phillida Bunkle, who served in Helen Clark’s Cabinet from 1999 to 2001, as Minister of Consumer Affairs has been arrested after allegedly trying to steal food to consume. The alleged goods shoplifted are a bottle of Stone’s green ginger wine worth $15.20 and two blocks of Fagg’s coffee each worth $7.19 in her bag.

Well the Government did always believe in redistribution of wealth, but that’s taking it to a new level!
