As the country staggers under the weight of the Government’s economic vandalism, ACT Party Boss Hogg tortures pigs for another decade while abusing urgency…
Government’s pig farming law changes passed through Parliament under urgency
The government’s law changes to pig farming have passed through Parliament under urgency.
The legislation cancels an upcoming ban on farrowing crates, which keep mother pigs confined to avoid them accidentally crushing piglets.
Instead of a ban, it gives farmers another 10 years to get used to slightly tougher restrictions than the status quo.
…TVNZ had the story on air, but for some reason haven’t put it up online, but Chris Lynch has the footage…
…the TVNZ NZ news story had Minister of Pork, Hoggard pretending sow crates are to save the little piglets and that changes were coming – IN 10 YEARS!
Minister defends decision to only consult pork industry on new pig welfare reforms
The Associate Agriculture Minister has defended his decision to only consult the pork industry and give them a decade to transition to new pig welfare reforms, during a grilling from opposition MPs.
His issue wasn’t the cruelty to the pigs, his issue was that the pig cruelty was being exposed!
Let’s be 100% honest about why we all love this story so much.
1 – He looks like a pig.
2 – His name is Hoggard.
3 – It’s another venal example of how crony capitalism seeps into everything these evil fucks touch.
That a corrupt hog of a man could lobby for his industry mates to ensure pigs stay suffering for a decade and make that decision by only talking to those whose interests he represents manages to highlight everything wrong with this disgusting government.
If the Left pulled stunts like this, you rednecks would be braying till the sun went down, but this Government makes decisions only with their mates, that’s democracy in action.
You hypocrites!
Every Kiwi who voted for this venal Government should be ashamed and mocked with contempt.
Let me double down.
That little piggy went to market,
That little piggy burned Rome,
That little piggy sold sad ham,
That little piggy exported none.
And that little piggy went …
ACT, ACT, ACT,
all the way home!
