You Won’t See This in the Media

Despite being eager to report when we were being called political opportunists and liars, the media are unlikely to run stories on the apology.

Yesterday afternoon we received an apology from the Justice Select Committee for the incorrect public statements the chair James Meager made about Hobson’s Pledge. James Meager also made an apology on the livestream later in the day.

We appreciate the acknowledgement from the committee and understand that miscommunications happen. Unfortunately, however, despite being eager to report when we were being called political opportunists and liars, the media are unlikely to run stories on the apology.

That’s life in New Zealand in 2025 when the media don’t agree with you!

Anyway, this was just a quick update so that at least you know that we got an apology.
