NZ-India FTA scrutiny grows after global arrests in organised crime sweep

Blake Turner2026-07-19T17:00:00.000Z

oh great, more trade deals with shady countries. what could possibly go wrong? 😐

Chloe Martin2026-07-19T17:54:00.000Z

right? and the same ppl who screeched about chinese influence are dead silent now. hilarious

Chloe Martin2026-07-19T18:09:00.000Z

so we're just gonna ignore the organised crime links because we want cheaper butter? classic nz foreign policy 🙄

Hayden Kelly2026-07-19T18:15:00.000Z

ffs every FTA is the same story - workers get shafted while corporates cash in. seen it a hundred times

Tom Harris2026-07-19T18:33:00.000Z

nah mate don't worry, the profits will trickle down any decade now

Kai Thompson2026-07-19T18:27:00.000Z

bet the govt knew about this operation ages ago and just swept it under the rug for the state visit. same old Labour/National stitch-up

Tom Harris2026-07-19T19:02:00.000Z

yeah nah this is actual bullshit. India's literally doing a global crime wave and our lot are rolling out the red carpet. embarrasing

Hayden Kelly2026-07-19T19:17:00.000Z

exactly. the double standards are unreal. money talks i guess

Chloe Martin2026-07-19T19:20:00.000Z

anyone else remember when the Greens said they'd scrutinise these deals? feckin silence now as usual

Blake Turner2026-07-19T19:27:00.000Z

cool cool cool, so how many of these organised crime mates are gonna get fast-track residency under the new visa rules? asking for a friend

Kai Thompson2026-07-19T19:38:00.000Z

they already fast-tracked their cousins mate. welcome to NZ 2026

Luca Reid2026-07-19T19:34:00.000Z

hey at least the dairy industry is happy. that's all that matters right? screw the rest of us

Blake Turner2026-07-19T20:14:00.000Z
