This is good for Fonterra.

Not so good for those of us who can’t afford to keep enough of the stuff on our table for our kids though…

Is it “fair”? It's fair enough if they want to do it, their heads, their milk (presuming they purchased it). Is it “commonsense”? No, it look likes uncommonnonsense.

It all depends. Is it “fair”? Is it “commonsense”?

Consistent and competent governance is like a daily glass of milk, it may be boring but it’s effective and reliable.

And he’ll stick to his committed variety and won’t drink what Labour try and shame him into drinking.

He told Labour's Helen Clark exactly that!

Perhaps Mr Dunne will eschew Trim or Full Cream and go for a light-blue middle-of the-road variety.

My guess is he will choose the most appropriate milk type for what he’s using it for, with a preference that it’s sourced from farms that don’t pollute waterways. And he’ll stick to his committed variety and won’t drink what Labour try and shame him into drinking.

Yet the look of absolute horror when you offer someone a cup of tea or coffee and there is no ‘PC’ Green top lite!

LOL, true.
A guy I used to work with used to joke that Green top isn’t milk anyway. It’s the water they use to wash the milking machines down with at the factory which they bottle and sell.

Peter Dunne would never drink full-cream milk. I’m picking he’s a Calci-Trim kid.

And what the hell is with milk drinkers these days? We have silver top ‘breakfast milk’ in our fridge…same as we all drank when we were kids (and it never killed us), Yet the look of absolute horror when you offer someone a cup of tea or coffee and there is no ‘PC’ Green top lite! Fucking wowsers…

I winder how many try-hards there are that try to start then next big craze, and I wonder how many of them succeed in getting more than a sniff of attention.

Planking wouldn’t disturb the hairhelmet. Milking would. However if he doesn’t volunteer, there’ll be no shortage of long-suffering taxpayers willing to assist.

DG, enjoying being a grumpy old curmudgeon is one of the few absolute pleasures of being friggin’ old. That, and refusing to kowtow to PC. I’m with you brother. Would Dunne do this? As a true curmudgeon, you would have to say, like me, that nothing would surprise you anymore.
