That second lockdown is currently costing 400 New Zealanders their jobs. Not every week, not every month, but every day 400 New Zealanders are losing their jobs while that Government spent months working out how they could do their shovel-ready projects and waited months to start announcing them, and, actually, it turns out it was Associate Minister of Finance James Shaw who was holding them up. That means jobs were lost in that time. That means contractors couldn't go ahead with their projects. That means councils couldn't be certain about the work they had, and, in that time, people lost their jobs. Businesses failed and people lost their jobs—400 people every day—because that Government couldn't keep the borders safe.
