Wow - where did that understanding come from?
Not at all what I asserted.
JK supports restricting access to stuff (including work) for unvaccinated people.
He can support that but he doesn't have to think about the implications of that (like people becoming unemployable as jonu suggested).

As loud and as clear a message to Grubby Cindy to lay off the 3 Waters of Christchurch.
Bravo!

Restricting access to a business based on vaccination status is certainly one of the things that Key and business stakeholders in general must think about. There are implications not only to the individual employee or customer, but the businesses as well.

A good summary of where NZ is at :
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"After all, this was the world's Covid-free paradise. How on earth did we do so well? Everyone wanted to find out!
What the world did not know then - but has since found out - is New Zealand had moved into phase two of its unofficial Covid strategy, to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
We went hard and fast on borrowing. And borrowing is fine as long as you borrow to invest. But not us.
Did we use our hard-won, Covid-free months - almost a year - to invest in health infrastructure, both hardware and staffing?
No.
Did we vaccinate, vaccinate, vaccinate?
No.
Did we invest in money-making initiatives that exploited our Covid-free status?
No.
We wondered aloud about a cycleway over the Auckland Harbour Bridge.
We have squandered our leading edge for the lack of a plan. And having lost the lead we undoubtedly had, we are now racing to the back of the pack.
Our economic policy is akin to a reverse mortgage, as we live quite well whilst building debt. Unfortunately, in order to be sound, reverse mortgages require that you die quite soon."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Clueless Cindy witrh her bunch of incompetents - messing up NZ for future generations with her one trick pony lockdown show.
What has she delivered except messes & disasters - housing, health, education, immigration, crime and child poverty.
Meanwhile, she is playing the racist game of favoring Maoris in everywhere possible to corner their votes (pakehas having split their votes down the middle) to stay in power and cover up the messes.

Only one party has aligned themselves with a race-based party and it was Sir john's National.

Labour is a race based party, from Ratana to 'delivering for Maori' to the Maori caucus.
Come on, Labour can hardly need to call themselves the 'Maori & Unionist Socialist Party of NZ' for us to know what they stand for.

Also put in the foreshore and seabed act so it cancels out.

...which they plan to nullify through 3 Waters and ‘co-governance’, so we are back to ‘The Māori & Unionist Socialist Party of New Zealand’.

Excerpts :
"This Government is running out of fingers to plug the holes in the dyke. Observe the body language of the Prime Minister and it's obvious to me at least the pressure she's under. She was fidgeting with her face mask to such an extent in Parliament's debating chamber yesterday that the audio had static. It's as though the stable door's been ripped off its hinges and the horse is nowhere in sight. Everyone's being caught by surprise, with the Government being about as transparent as a brick wall."
"Expect Jacinda Ardern to head off overseas in November as well. A tip-off to the up-coming travel was checked out with her office with a spokesperson saying "no travel has been confirmed and would be dependent on the domestic situation with Covid. They're political weasel words which we have to listen to daily. Ardern will be hoping the dyke will withstand the pressure between now and then."
