Wouldn’t Helen Clark be a far greater ambassador to the US to protect NZs interests than Groser?
I’ve said it many times, this Government will be far more radical than the corporate mainstream media pundits are claiming. Having spoken to some of those who were part of the behind the scenes negotiations, I believe this Government is deadly serious about reforming and changing Capitalism in this country.
