He has been the main driver within the Coalition of defunding the media.
He threatened the media at the very first cabinet meeting of the Coalition.
These are the sort of consequences that I predicted, local journalism will suffer.

Indeed - good points
Auckland is already looking like some south American countries .. gang warfare, drugs, drive by shootings, ram raid burglaries, etc and as for the rest of the country hints of this lawlessness & a devoid in many parts Judiciary trying to aid & abet the transition to Scumlands ignoring looking after the better good and the society which keeps the overpaid ignorant in keep perched on their benches .
When did this Lawlessness start taking hold in NZ ? .. look no further than Labour's most recent 6 years ;)
Ardern's 501 imports, The free money avalanches, Pat a Jailbird on the head better out than in, Weak kneed judiciary who would rather talk about discounts, Davis's jail mind blinks .. and probably more ;)
Who is directly & indirectly paying for all this mindless BullSh**t ? :)
You thought or you fought, because you certainly did not think there Daze trader.
You are so immersed in welfarism you can not see user pays, even when it's spelt out in front of you.
I won't comment on where your head is stuck up, but you must have a very sore spine, and a good excuse why you can't see anything!
And keep kids hungry and see what that does to the future generations.
Less educated.
More crime.
More drugs.
More on welfare.
It is short sighted, let alone cruel, not to invest in these kids future as it's an investment in the country's future.
User pays. You know that will really work.
The same parents who aren't feeding their kids are going to stump up with $5 a day for each kid or whatever it is for lunch money. 🙄
What cloud are you on?
And the kids who don't get given the $5 from their parents? They just go hungry.
Retirees are given all sorts of benefits, through Winston’s gold card. How about we scrap those and feed the kids.
Didn't Labour fix all that overnight along with all the other ills they said would be instantly fixed by Cindy Magic Stardust - the Crisis fixer in an instant .. or did every one get lied to & cheated again by Labour ? ;)Quote:

How did the Homeless, Poverty Kids & Car Dwelling population Stats look at the end of Labour's smashing, crashing, bank robbing, buckets in all directions, pot hole dodging, merry circus ? :)
Sorry to rain on your parade, but my cumulus waters down your objections.
Of course most of those who don't provide their kids lunch won't pay the $3 per lunch I last heard, or your $5.
They will suddenly discover their peanut butter sandwich making skills l previously mentioned.
On a good day they may become more adventurous.
And there will be no cash involved if they don't supply lunch, or get one from school.
Because it will be extracted from the bad parents by the same means you advocate it should be taken from the good parents!
Capiche?
Then in a short time the state lunch scheme will be unnecessary, and the demand you wish to impose, then increase, on future generations will evaporate.
Solutions should be to get the right outcome, not perpetuate and ingrain the problem.
And as for your cheap shot at the retirees who did feed their kids, you really are retrograde.
Plenty of kid-starving ****heels currently collecting the pension.
The capiche as you express it is quite simple, as is your solution that simply won't work.
You are expecting parents who we can all agree are behaving irresponsibly to change behaviors just because they have less money. In fact the opposite will be true and more kids will suffer.
Capiche?
