Principles or a free dinner?
Stuff reports:
Shane Jones is being accused of hypocrisy for accepting a free ticket to Air NZ’s Obama dinner while slating the company in public.
Big tough strong Shane Jones. He is demanding the Chair, the board and the CEO all resign because they won’t do what he demands.
And he is such a champion for his beliefs that he’ll condemn then in a press release, and then head to a free dinner hosted by them.
What a champion of the people.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has told Jones that calling for a chairman to resign is going too far.
“I have certainly explained to him that he is absolutely entitled to an opinion that he has shared but suggesting someone should be sacked is too far,” Ardern said.
Another rogue Minister.
