VIDEO - Sky City Entertainment Group : Parliamentary Question Related to Convention Centre

The Green Party asked the following question in Parliament this afternoon

Kevin Hague: Does he stand by his statement on Breakfast yesterday that “we’re constantly changing aquaculture laws, or fishing laws, or whatever it might be. I mean in the case of Sky City, that particular licence is site specific”?

In attempting to a label the Government corrupt by opening up the possibility of a discussion over relaxing gaming laws in order for Sky City Entertainment Group Ltd [SKC.NZX]to fund and build a National Convention Centre Kevin Hague and the Greens show their socialist and communistic roots.

The answers given by Stephan Joyce included increased economic activity because of a convention centre, thousands of jobs and redevelopment of a barren and disused part of the Auckland Central CBD.

Employing thousands of people at the lower end of the wage scale seems to clash with the green mantra of providing jobs and incomes to the "vulnerable" in our society.

I guess this is easy to do if you are just another wealthy green party voter.
