How can you possibly argue that you take ANY issue “very very seriously” when the Minister responsible hadn’t even sodding read the report!!
Do y’all believe me now about select committee members not bothering to read submissions?

But you have to admire the gorgeous level of rampant bullshit in this from Luxon, "It's a big document, it's about four kilograms from memory. I want to read it personally myself from cover to cover."

And if this were a left-wing minister the Nats would be howling for their resignation

Reading reports/submissions and ignoring them is so much less efficient and time consuming than just ignoring them when your mind is already made up, but you still have to pretend it isn't.😡

There’s a disturbing trend of ministers not reading key reports for areas they’re responsible for, including Labour Ministers:

Reading the report is his job as a minister. If he doesn't want to do the job he should resign.

I believe that this government's MPs don't read anything & remain utterly ignorant. They are lazy and dangerous. They do not think of the public good. We, the people, are worthless to them.

Same as Auckland Council. They actively asked for submissions then told me they only read ones from agreed/approved sources. But this is beyond acceptable
