Are you implying retaliation ?
No, Sir Loin.
I am merely drawing to NZers attention that its a bit like the apple situation. Australia's Public Service Act 1999 has always required citizenship as a condition of employment in the Public Service. But, the requirement can also be waived under the same legislation.
The leaked policy change is that waivers are to cease or at least be severely curtailed.
if they could put all the boffins on a plane and then that plane landed at woomera and the inmates got checked in for a bout 2 years, then I think both countries economies would much better off
