FTA ON THE SLOW TRACK

Well this is not good news TVNZ reported that the FTA agreement with the US is on the backburner. Pretty much because Obama hasn't got his shit together and needs to appoint a trade guru.

However we were listening to Matthew Hooton interview Tim Groser our Trade Minister at 7pm tonight and Tim is alert to the consequences but far from panicked.

We have other FTA's on the table so there is still lots of work for him to do.

atulations to everyone any everything decent left in the world that hasn't been absorbed and assimilated by the American neo-liberal capitalist Free-trade death grip! :) :) :)

I hope that Free Trade agreement falls flat on its face with the help of decent New Zealanders shutting down each and every negotiation event that happens in Aotearoa!!
