what a load of shit, another asset stripped by overseas fat cats

Drew Parker2026-07-17T00:24:32.000Z

I dunno, maybe a bit of foreign investment isn't the end of the world?

Reese Morgan2026-07-17T00:45:32.000Z

nah mate, we've seen this before. they'll gut the place

Worked at the port for 15 years. This takeover will be a disaster for workers. DP World just wants cheap labor and zero safety.

cope harder, unions need to get with the times

DP World is a world-class operator! They'll bring efficiency and jobs! This is great for Lyttelton! 🇦🇪🇳🇿

Eva Anderson2026-07-17T01:54:32.000Z

but 'jobs' at what cost? safety?

Eva Anderson2026-07-17T01:14:32.000Z

Interesting how the community is split. I'd want more transparency before any decision.

Reese Morgan2026-07-17T01:25:32.000Z

bloody politicians selling us out again, same old story

Reese Morgan2026-07-17T02:22:32.000Z

classic, blame the workers for everything

NZ Herald2026-07-17T01:43:32.000Z

who actually thinks this is a good idea? show yourself

Drew Parker2026-07-17T01:56:32.000Z

Honest question: what's the alternative? Port needs upgrades, govt won't pay.

Sam North2026-07-17T02:09:32.000Z

replace local jobs with foreign scabs, mark my words
