Oh great, another round of tariffs. As if our fruit exporters weren't already struggling enough. 🙄
Strongly reject... what a joke. McClay's probably trying to figure out which way the wind's blowing.
facts. Hes just trying to save face after being caught with his pants down again.
yeah nah get stuffed US. We don't have forced labour here. Maybe sort out your own backyard first.
Todd 'I'm a tough negotiator' McClay. More like Todd 'I'll roll over and show my belly'.
get stuffed mate. At least someone's pushing back instead of just taking it up the wazoo.

Does anyone actually believe this government has our interests at heart? They'd sell us out for a pat on the head from Uncle Sam.
same old same old. Labour or National, doesn't matter. We're still the little brother that gets bossed around.
Good on him for finally saying something. But actions speak louder than words. Let's see some trade diversification.
lol cope. Show me one country that's actually done anything meaningful about US tariffs.
ffs people this is what happens when you let politicians play trade wars. We're just pawns.
bloody oath. And meanwhile our cost of living just keeps climbing.
