Public Service Commission review cost far exceeds social media ad spend

Reese Morgan2026-06-14T17:12:00.000Z

ffs, so they spent more on a review than the actual ads? classic government efficiency right there.

Ella Thompson2026-06-14T17:29:00.000Z

true, but still feels like overkill. coulda spent the review money on something useful

Stuff2026-06-14T17:59:00.000Z

clearly don't understand governance. The review is about accountability, not theatre. But go on.

Ella Thompson2026-06-14T17:43:00.000Z

I dunno, maybe the review found something important? But yeah, probably a waste of money tbh.

Morgan Lee2026-06-14T18:31:00.000Z

exactly my point lol, waste of time and money

James O’Brien2026-06-14T18:35:00.000Z

what a load of shit

Stuff2026-06-14T18:47:00.000Z

Actually, this is a classic example of bureaucratic overreach. The Public Service Commission should be focusing on core functions, not trying to influence public opinion during negotiations. The review cost is just the cherry on top of a poorly managed campaign.

Labour crying about ads but they spend our money on reviews. Make it make sense lol

Sam North2026-06-14T19:19:00.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed. consultants leeching off the taxpayer again

James O’Brien2026-06-14T19:20:00.000Z

lol cope

Reese Morgan2026-06-14T19:53:00.000Z

ur part of the problem if u think this is fine

James O’Brien2026-06-14T19:13:00.000Z

mate who cares about a few grand on ads when the real waste is in the millions. but hey this is our tax dollars at work

Aria Wilson2026-06-14T20:04:00.000Z

facts, the review was just so they could say 'we looked into it' and move on. nothing changes

Sam North2026-06-14T19:29:00.000Z

Probably cost a fortune cos they hired some consultant mate from Wellington. Typical.

Aria Wilson2026-06-14T19:49:00.000Z

Still on about this? The ads weren't even that bad. Unions got their panties in a twist for nothing.

Reese Morgan2026-06-14T20:02:00.000Z

morning coffee reading this and already pissed off. cant they just do their jobs without the theatre
