Greens Above 5% Threshold
We were shocked to watch One News tonight and to see the Green Party's total disregard for the environment by allowing Rolland Sapsford to wastefully light a candle at the start of their conference today, and allow the candle to burn throughout proceedings. Yet another outburst on Fonterra confirmed the party's intention to try to wreck the economy. Unfortunately One News let slip the bad news that the Greens are on 7% in their latest poll which will be announced in full tomorrow evening.
