#BHN Grant Robertson retires | National's benefit bashing continues | Supermarket rorting | Winston wrong...again

from #BHN Big Hairy News · host Big Hairy Network

Winston Peters was never one to let the truth get in the way of a good story, especially when it comes to his new love of cookers. Grant Robertson, a senior Labour Party heavy hitter and former Deputy Prime Minister has resigned from politics to take up a position at Otago University. National's benefit bashing continues with a focus on sanctions on people on the jobseeker benefit who don't fulfil the expectations WINZ has for them. The Supermarket rorting has been highlighted with suppliers going on record to tell how much they sell their products to supermarkets, versus how much the supermarket sells them for. This lead to an uneasy confrontation on Australia's Four Corners where the boss of Woolworths stormed out of an interview. National calls for Israel not to enter Rafah although Luxon is speaking to Israel like they are a naughty child in need of time out. ================================================ Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠ Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebook www.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter. @patbrittenden @Chewie_NZ
