You'd think the media would be able to hack together a few vox-pops with Maori youth finding out why they don't want to get vaccinated, but no doubt that would get criticised for painting them in a negative light. It's a tricky tightrope walk sometimes.
Also weird that some can not trust what's in a vaccine, but have no qualms about eating some fatty junk food elements of which were no doubt created in some lab by a bunch of scientists. There seemed to be a lot of pudgy anti-vaxxers when you watched the Tamaki "not a protest".
I'm grumpy today.
You are right, in that Maori are generally Labour supporters, so it is hard to understand if they have a lack of trust in them, or maybe it's a lack of trust in the vaccination itself.
Buggered if I know.
Have some chocolate, or whatever helps you get through the grumps.

Maybe you need a hunk o' spunk to whisk you away for a long weekend on a private beach, where it's only you and him, and lots of chocolate and wine to feed each other on.(22-10-2021, 04:48 PM)yousnoozeyoulose Wrote: As Maori tend to vote Labour, it feels odd for them to not be trusting the Government.

Best hide the things with sharp edges.

Oh hang on, that's my fantasy, not yours.
