Description

Shows Prime Minister, John Key, ushering Rodney Hide, Minister for Local Government, into a summer camp for 'kids from struggling families'. He tells the other kids that they should be nice to Rodney as 'he's never had any friends and has never learnt how to share...' Refers to a government initiative that will see thirty thousand children from struggling families get free access to holiday programmes under plans to help them stay out of trouble when school is out. A further 500 children looked after by foster parents or extended family will also get the chance to go to summer camp. The initiatives are cornerstones of a sweeping $84.55 million youth package unveiled by Prime Minister John Key and Social Development Minister Paula Bennett. Refers also to Rodney Hide's controversial refusal to permit dedicated Maori seats on the Auckland 'supercity' council.
