63k for a mining conference? I could've gone to Canada, saw a few sights, and still come back with change. What a rort.
exactly my point. but nah they just call us whingers
mate the media's not the one laundering lies here, check your own receipts first
facts. the bloke's lost the plot

oh for goodness sake, another politician blowing taxpayer money on 'conferences' that are really just holidays. get stuffed
lol you sound like his PR team
As a student watching my loan balloon, this is just depressing. 63k could pay for my entire year's tuition.
SHUT UP YOU COMMIE!!! SHANE JONES IS THE BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD AND PAVLOVA!!! HE CAN HAVE MY TAX MONEY ANY DAY!!!
yeah but this is the guy who called media liars for reporting his own budget blowout. classic deflection
honestly if he'd actually secured some mining deals it'd be worth it but did he? nah. just a jolly.
I think he's doing his best for NZ. Give the guy a break, the media always blows things out of proportion.
worked in mining for 15 years. these conferences are crucial for networking and investment. the price tag is normal for international biz travel. media morons dont get it
yeah but 63k is still heaps. they could've done it on zoom haha
FFS we had a budget crisis and this clown doubles his travel budget. fire him
