Anderton Unreconstructed Socialist

Clark's appointment of Jim Anderton to the Agriculture Ministry has been noted by commentators as a master stroke. An energetic minister with a reputation for getting things done, is among the comments I have read.

I think she has a far more sinister agenda. Resurrection of the Right to Roam legislation that caused Sutton to be given the Order of the Boot' last election.

Who better to face the slings and arrows than an urban Minister - where there is little understanding of the issue in the Latte circles. Won't get biffed out by irate farmers next election.

Anderton has wasted little time in expounding a view that the issue of access to'íconic' waterways needs to be revisited. I understand the United Future policy is no legislated access...wonder if they are aware of Anderton's expostulations?

Anderton said "Most farmers are reasonable, but what if someone is unreasonable? Could that catch on and more people get unreasonable?"....

What, pray tell is "unreasonable" about a land owner deciding absolutely who or what can enter their property.

Be afraid, I say, be very afraid.

Its like you learn my thoughts! You appear to understand a lot approximately
this, like you wrote the ebook in it or something.
I feel that you can do with some p.c. to drive the message home a
bit, however instead of that, that is wonderful blog.
A fantastic read. I will definitely be back.
