This is actually very concerning. Both NZF and ACT are jumping on the press-bashing bandwagon. I really hope we, as a country, don't put up with this kind of bullshit.

Not to mention Seymour's a massive hypocrite:
ACT leader David Seymour said Allan should have remembered she is always on duty, especially given the heightened awareness of the Cabinet manual since the sacking of Stuart Nash.
"There is a real problem when the people who hold the purse strings aren't absolutely critically cautious about even the perception of interfering with media," Seymour said.
"Nobody loses their democracy all at once, it's always a thousand little chips and we don't want to see them. It's good she's apologised, but I can't believe she did it."
Not to mention Seymour’s a massive hypocrite:
the word you are looking for is sociopath.
He can be more than one thing. I'm sure he's that too among other things.
We are putting up with it though. He wouldn't do it if it wasn't resonating with the public.
