Come on, Jt! This is a cabinet minister - indeed the Minister of Health! - that's setting this example to all of how to bend the rules! Not good enough!
Jacinda missed the opportunity to sack him ...he’s been inept from the day he was appointed and his press conferences in the early stages of the virus thing were a disaster ....so bad he was sent home and essentially told to shut up.
“ At the top of every bubble, everyone is convinced it's not yet a bubble.”

Then what? There's a fairly shallow talent pool to fish in. The next in line would probably be David Parker. Clark is a far better bet in every way possible. The sacking opportunities she missed were Twyford and Lees Galloway.
Huge subsidies to businesses, rent freezes and all sorts of things ....but the good old minimum wage must go up.
The "Huge Subsidies to Businesses" are really Huge Subsidies which will Businesses have been instructed to place 100% of what comes in, into the the hands of Employees. Meanwhile ACC, HP and other Costs continue to accrue
Aside from Loan guarantees, the Business Sector has to date seen SFA from Govt while being left with effects of substantially reduced if not NIL Turnover, and all the other costs over & above any subsidy for staff.
If the Govt really values the Business Sector that produces the goodies & means for keeping the Economy going and jobs, then they need to wake up fast IMO ; rather than spouting feel good words with plenty of smiles, whilst leaving the Sector wearing the costs & consequences of Govt's so far inadequate & too late measures before the total close down.
Agreed.
His mistake isn't what he did - it's how it looked.
Get over it people.
The rules are you are not allowed to drive to exercise , should be sacked for being lazy ....mountain bike park was only 2.3 K away ... "One form of exercise a day either alone or with people you live with only. This might include running, walking or cycling. You should not drive to get to the place you are planning to exercise."

Exactly. He should be sacked. He broke the law or directives given by his own government blatantly. But what a total loser. He would have got to the bike park quicker if he had just biked there. Idiot.
Of course I am still running out of my hood. That's the point. Clark has what the Dutch quite aptly name a "voorbeeldsfunctie". Literally translated that is an "example function". I don't have such a function. Therefore I am not, nor should I be, held to the same scrutiny and account that he is.
