Q + A
PANEL DISCUSSION
2
Hosted by SUSAN
WOOD
In response to Theo Spierings
Interview
SUSAN We’re back to
the panel this morning. And, Bryce, do you think Theo
Spierings should be resigning, or do you think he should be
staying?
DR BRYCE EDWARDS – Political
Scientist
I think that
Spierings has to go, absolutely. This is a case where I
think New Zealanders watching this show would have been
hoping for Spierings to announce his resignation today. For
the good of New Zealand, he should go, for the good of New
Zealand farmers and for China, I think, because the fact is
that the Chinese market will be expecting some big changes.
And there’s a problem with corporate culture in Fonterra,
obviously, and if they have any chance of repairing the
reputation of Fonterra, the old guard will have to
leave.
