Scoop has an Ethical Paywall
Greens On Strike On Full Pay
Wednesday 22 May 2002
ACT leader Richard Prebble has poured scorn on the Greens' so-called walkout of Parliament today.
"The Greens had already used all their speaking time," Mr Prebble said.
"The Green MPs have not foregone their pay or perks, so in effect they've gone on strike on full pay.
"If they hadn't issued a press statement, we wouldn't have noticed, " Mr Prebble said.
