- Description
Shows two farmers watching John Key, Steven Joyce and Bill English running past. One farmer comments that they are not doing the Coast to Coast race, but are "distancing themselves from Pike River". A commentator below says they will respond if "Solid Energy has its hand out again". Refers to OIA revelations that WorkSafe New Zealand and Mine Rescue had advised Solid Energy a year ago that it was technically feasible to re-enter the Pike River mine to recover the 29 men who died there. The National government has said that decision to re-enter Pike River was one to be made by Solid Energy board alone, although the government controls the board. However, poorly performing Solid Energy was bailed out by the taxpayer to the tune of $100 million in 2014, and $125 million in 2013.
