Note from Nighthawk.NZ:

You can yell and scream and warn people as much as you like, but if they don't want to get vacinated for what ever reason there is not a lot you can do about it. And yes these same people are the ones that will get the virus and spread it to others  and complain. As for low Maori numbers... again they have been told they have had the same chance as every other person in the country.

The deal - agreed to in principle, with the hope of concluding final negotiations by next year - was announced this morning.

It would eliminate tariffs on all UK goods into New Zealand, and tariffs on about 63 percent of goods currently exported to the country. Sheep meat and beef would be subject to tariffs but have a quota - increasing each year - for duty-free exports until the 15th year of the agreement, while butter and cheese would have tariffs reduced until the sixth year.
