Incredibly dumb, wasteful and offensive policy from the new government of Aotearoa — The uncertainty around how much it would cost to rebrand government departments :
the Government’s NZ First coalition agreement vowed to “ensure all public service departments have their primary name in English, except for those specifically related to Māori”.
Miraz Jordan @cheribaker That's just the start of the dumbassery. Plans to allow oil and gas exploration again, scrap fair pay laws. There's a lot. Ugh!

The question of course is, why, when we are getting quite used to the names I te reo? And the clearest answer is, to suck up to the racists.
