PSA trying to get foreign governments to impede the NZ Government

An astonishing revelation in The Post:

But the PSA’s national secretary Fleur Fitzsimons says meat inspectors “are very worried about this move towards private meat inspection, they know that the companies are conflicted when it comes to this work”.

“Their job is to be genuinely independent on the chain that involves staring down pressure from meat companies, and that independence is absolutely critical to the high quality meat inspection that we have here.”

Fitzsimons says the PSA has written to both the Chinese and US Ambassadors “to raise our concerns about the move towards private meat inspection, and we’ve requested a meeting with them”.

The PSA are basically trying to destroy the export markets for the meat industry, in an attempt to prevent competition for state sector meat inspectors. This tells you a lot about them.
