This made me laugh - overseas teacher visas

[Outsider]

A principal, commenting on teachers who have visas to come to NZ urgently to fill vacancies and who are stuck as they can't get MIQ places: 

She said she wished the Education Minister and Covid-19 Minister ÔÇô who are both Chris Hipkins ÔÇô could work it out together.

ÔÇ£I really hope the Minister of Education could talk to the minister in charge of the Covid response, maybe they would get somewhere.ÔÇØ

Quote of the day.
