Default re: The Hikoi ... Sparkle's rant for the day

I have to wonder how these professional protesters can afford to travel the length of the island.

For most of us it is difficult to take a week or two off work and then pay for petrol etc to travel while still paying our rent and other bills.
However, we have the usual suspects like Mike Smith (the One tree Hill chainsaw guy), Ken Mair (Motua Gardens) & Titewhai Harawira that manage to do this. Perhaps they have each won Lotto first division?


(And for the record, I have been involved in a couple of Peace marches, but only when they were in the weekend hence not at work. So this shouldn’t be taken as an anti protest posting but a ‘time & a place’ posting.)
