We now have a new Chief of Staff at the OPM. So where is Ben Ponia amongst all this reshuffle and why wasn’t his new job advertised? Jobs for the boys and one of many examples of nepotism and corruption by government?

The Ministry of Education big boss is spending more time overseas than in his Office. Is it true the HoM even employed his sister-in-law to carry out some contract work? Word on the street is that he has allowed his close friends to rearrange the Ministry’s structure to suit them. Hint, one is a former failed college principal and the other is an accountant from Fiji. The Office of the Public Service Commissioner must wake up and do their checks.

Has anyone bothered to ask the question, since self-government, all our Prime Ministers have worked closely and very well with various New Zealand governments. Ever since the NZ PM and DPM pushed back PM Mark Brown’s Cook Islands passport proposal, his behaviour and attitude has gone for the worst and he has turned to China. There are far too many hidden agendas and PM Brown needs to come clean and be transparent and accountable to the people.
