The event allegedly occurred in a private house. Unlike the Labour event which was at a Labour organised accommodation.
The event occurred after a Young National Eventy. Unlike the Labour event which occurred during the Labour organised function.
It appears alcohol was provided after the National event at a commercial bar. Unlike Labour where it was provided during the event by some as yet unnamed party.
The alleged victim was not a member of Young Nats, whereas the alleged victims in the Labour Sex Camp were members of Labour.
There was one alleged victim vs 2 males and 2 female alleged victims in the Labour event.
There have been no reports of Young Nats spewing their guts out after the event. Whereas some at the Labour Camp were really crook.
There were no reports of Young Nats playing drunken party games at the pub. The Labour folk were so drunk they were dancing on the tables.
There were no reports of the Young Nats organizer going to bed "early". Who knows why the Labour organizer felt the need for an early night - due to the report not being made public. Perhaps we should read between the lines on that one.
National immediately provided support to the alleged victim and no attempt has been made to keep this quiet. Labour did all it could to keep their event quiet and the support that was provided was done by a Labour supporter - thus keeping it all "in-house"
Seems to me chalk and cheese events.
It really wasn't worth all that effort

Those wage increases inevitably cause the inflation cycle to kick in, leaving wage earners no better off, but of great benefit to those who own their own property.

And where will the increase in productivity come from?
More investment in plant which will see less jobs and lower skills.
Just keeps adding overhead to NZ business who will at some stage decide making a loss is no fun and they will close down.
