another FTA that'll do sweet FA for the average kiwi. watch our dairy farmers get screwed over while some suits pat themselves on the back.
yeah nah this is just political wanking. won't make a dent in the cost of living anytime soon.
interesting to see how this plays out tho. india's a massive market, even a small slice would be huge for us.
exactly. another round of 'we're world leaders' while the average person gets priced out of existence.
classic nz media, hyping up a trade deal that won't even show results till i've graduated uni. ffs.
nah get stuffed. our dairy already watered down enough. india'll just dump cheap food on us.

hey at least it's something. better than sitting around doing nothing like the last govt.
true but gotta start somewhere. can't just whinge and do nothing.
bloody typical. sell out our food safety standards for a pat on the head from modi. absolute bullshit sellout.
lol get real. our food standards are already a joke, this won't change anything.
lotta negativity here. trade deals take time. good on mcklay for getting it over the line.
wait... the article title says 'positions nz for future' but the summary says 'unlikely to deliver immediate boost'? make up your minds.
or maybe they said both because it's true? not everything is a conspiracy mate.
on my way home from work and can't be bothered reading past the headline. sounds like more hot air.
reasonable step honestly. india's growing fast, good to build links now even if it takes a decade to pay off.
