Rotorua Daily Post I find it alarming that our illustrious servants in Wellington have decided to extend a wage freeze affecting the likes of health and education at a time when we are in a rebuilding phase following the financially punitive lockdowns of the past 15 months.
What are they thinking? Surely, it s fundamental in a rebuilding stage to have at least these two sectors performing with a sense that they are supported and appreciated.
Public gratitude displayed in flowers and encouraging emails puts no extra bread on the table.
