Once again no mention he was a Labour candidate
Stuff reports:
A Northland principal has questioned the level of nutrition in the new free school lunch programme that will be rolled out from next year at a cost of $3 per meal.
The moment I saw this paragraph, I knew who the principal would be.
However, Hora Hora School principal, Pat Newman, said at $3 per meal, he doubted the new external providers of the food would prioritise health.
“I don’t think families from homes with more funds would be sitting down to $3 meals. Why should kids from lower income families be made to do that?“ Newman told Stuff.
The current model of providing lunches on site meant children had “nutritious, healthy and nice food”, he said, whereas the Minister was only interested in “saving money”.
Of course it is Mr Newman, who is quoted regularly by media as a critic without reference to the fact he stood for Parliament for the Labour Party.
