- Description
A small man watches a huge television screen while drinking a cup of coffee. The announcer says 'An un-named govt minister is accused of making rude comments to Aussie hosts at RWC game! In other news, the Trans Tasman cost of living gap is reported to be widening! A govt minister had no comment...' The man at this point turns his back in irritation and thinks 'Now THAT'S rude!!' Context: Sydney Morning Herald rugby columnist Greg Growden dubbed an unnamed Government minister "the New Zealand Minister for Bad Manners" after an alleged scene during the Wallabies' opening Rugby World Cup game. The minister had allegedly "booed and abused the Wallabies ... yelling out f...... cheats and other offensive remarks". Ministers Maurice Williamson, Wayne Mapp and Jonathan Coleman were in the tent, but all three have emphatically denied the allegations. (Dominion Post 14 September 2011) The second piece of news related to 'The growing income gap between Australians and New Zealanders has more to do with poorly skilled managers and workers than anything to do with Australia's "lucky country" status and reliance on heavy industry, says a new study from the New Zealand Institute of Economic Research.
