Kiri Allan apologises over comments at RNZ farewell for fiancée Māni Dunlop
Cabinet minister Kiri Allan has made a public apology after criticising RNZ’s culture and treatment of Māori staff during a farewell event for her fiancée, Māni Dunlop.
Ummmmm.
Yeah.
Bout that.
So I think it was weird the way Māni spat the dummy and quit RNZ because she was passed over for promotion to Morning Report.
The insinuation for her being passed over was because of Cracker and the white heteronormative white cis male patriarchy which is hilarious because we are talking about RNZ, the wokest woke fest in woke world.
They are so woke they orgasm in te reo.
It had NOTHING to do with her being engaged to a Cabinet Minister.
Well. Actually. Of course it was because she is engaged to a bloody Cabinet Minister!
Come on, could you imagine the uproar if the State Broadcasters most important political show, Morning Report, was co-hosted by someone engaged to a Cabinet Minister?
Folks. Come on.
So I thought it was weird to walk out on the show she had to make a point about how supposedly racist RNZ are.
Ok. Fine.
But then her Minister Fiancee launches into a scathing attack on RNZ at the leaving Party.
FFS.
No one is asking the following questions which are going to get uncomfortable.
1. Why didn’t RNZ publish a story on Saturday. Clearly this was in the public interest.
2. Why did it take until Katie from the herald asked more questions
3. A recording? They always record farewell Teams meetings so people who miss out can see them later. Where is it.
Cough: Under the Radio New Zealand Act 1995 “no responsible Minister or any other Minister… may give direction to the public radio company in respect of a “a particular programme or a particular allegation or a particular complaint”, “the gathering or presentation of news” or the “responsibility of the company for programme standards”.
If the Labour Party have finished shooting themselves in the fucking foot, can we please get back to the issue at hand of putting together a new economic frame work to resist the looming recession and winning this election?

The problem is that the woke don’t actually want to win. In woke world the currency is victimhood. My view is that all of this is designed to help the woke lose so they can blame cracker for the loss. There is no credible left wing, and the right will sail into government using fake concern for the middle and destroy the state entirely when they get there.
Who would trust RNZ after they are clearly protecting Allen and the government.
Entitled, woke, arrogant, lacking intelligence.
And that sums up not just Allan and her partner but the entire Labour caucus.
This isn’t an attempt by Allan to subvert RNZ, it’s yet another insight in to the character of the Labour Party and it’s ugly.
More evidence of a party in free fall .
RNZ are so beyond woke they now speak in pigeon English or Maori, depending on who is speaking. It hurts them to even have the “NZ” part remaining in their title!
So to not take on a person identifying as Maori in the top host spot, just because, is unthinkable. Something genuinely concerning must have stopped them. Maybe she simply wasn’t good enough, like epically bad, or as you say, a Ministers fiance may have also not helped. But to play the race card Kiri…really? The hallmark and last refuge of a scoundrel. Pathetic. It also reinforces Allen’s bullying minister persona DOC staff let leak.
Labour are showing that they’re tired, stale and arrogant. Like Davidson for her racism, Allen should have gone for this and yet by not doing so, Chippy looks weak. Again.
Between the Greens idiot of the week competition and Ministers burning the cabinet manual at their leisure and Chippy only doing something when the stench won’t die down, is not a good look in election year!
I’ve never actually been to a fair well do where the leavers partner even gets up and says anything. During the presentation bit I mean. Is this some new modern tread?
