Quotation for Today, Saturday 23 October

What really concerns me is that Actors’ Equity – which appears to have been run sloppily in recent years – has suddenly gone all stroppy at the very time we are bumping along the bottom of a long economic recovery.

Frankly, this union wouldn’t have found its straps unless it was egged along by Council of Trade Unions boss Helen Kelly, whose own motivations are these days driven more by wanting to “get John Key out” than doing the best by workers.

Kelly’s strategy is to enrol other offshore unions to create “situations” in New Zealand.
