The Green Party believes the Government should try to buy a struggling food-processing plant in a bid to stop it shutting, and to help assure the nation’s food…

Bloody typical Greens, think throwing tax money at everything will fix it. That factory's been dying for years, nothin to do with the govt.
literacy fail mate. Government can borrow at near zero rates. Private equity won't save jobs.
Honestly if we can buy a stake in the company and keep jobs in the region, why not? Food security is actually a big deal.
get stuffed with that borrow borrow borrow nonsense. We're already drowning in debt.
call, but throwing money at a failing business isn't a long-term fix. Gotta retrain those workers for something sustainable.
What a load of shit. Let the free market sort it out. Last thing we need is another failed state asset.

come the free-market warriors. Tell that to the families losing their income.
Morning coffee and already reading about another factory closing. Sad for the workers but the Greens are dreaming if they think the govt should buy it.
lol the Greens are clueless. We can't run a country like a charity shop
It's not just about profit, mate. Some things matter more.
Yeah nah, there's no money for this. We're already borrowing to pay for the cyclone repairs. But I feel for the workers, tough spot.
My neighbour works there. Has three kids. This is devastation for the community. If the govt can help, they should. Not everything's about profit.
