Keep it up Shane

Stuff reports:

Forestry Minister Shane Jones will not back down from comments describing farmers protesting on Parliament as “rednecks”.

As NZ First is trying to win votes in rural NZ, this is just great stuff. Keep it up Shane.

I understand Labour have just agreed this week to do a deal with NZ First in Northland, to maximise the chance Jones can win the seat, which means Willow-Jean Prime will either not stand, or campaign for the party vote only.

But that won’t help Jones enough, if he keeps attacking farmers and calling them rednecks.
