I am not that into Sail-GP but what Russell says makes a lot of sense, and should be a warning to us all.
Please read it before you judge.

Article made my eyes glaze over  Confused 
Major package of laws rushed in to protect citizens from a pandemic, bound to be errors.    
No jab no job, draconian ? I would have it count only for new employees, only two ay my work not inoculated, both valuable members of staff, would be a major thing to let them go.    
Very difficult to agree with someone using their fame to push a point of view.

Don’t know if this is being misrepresented, but alarming if true:
  • Finally and perhaps most important, I'm against the fact that some of our mainstream media have received payment from the New Zealand government conditional on them promoting government policy, propaganda and spin.

Not in the least alarming. Its surely a government's duty to campaign against false propaganda damaging to the welfare of their citizens.

They have an interesting way of doing it then. Shoot a man but list him of dieing of a virus. Which version of death is false propaganda then?

Yes, but bribing a newspaper to take editorial control? Very Chinese if that is actually the case.

A simple Google search will pull up enough information on the background to this for anyone to come to a balance view on this matter .
