Maximus Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 While murderers and rapists, predators in general and drug-addled layabouts in general get the kid gloves treatment, shop owners who don't comply with the Food Act (shock! horror!) go to jail. Is it any wonder the good citizens of this country feel rebellious? MM Cafe owner jailed over selling food while not registered | RNZ News AKaikōura cafe owner and former mayoral candidate has been jailed for two months for refusing to comply with food safety regulations. Bean Me Up owner Sharon Rayner faced charges, brought by the Kaikōura District Council, for knowingly selling non-complying food and failing to comply with a notice of direction under the Food Act 2014.

Hesi Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 She only got jail time because she had refused to pay a fine on a previous indiscretion, therefore there was no point issuing further fines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the white-collar crim Mark Benjamin, fraudster from about 10-12 years ago, does it again, gets found out - again - and gets stay at home in the comfort of his $2M Auckland pad? Only a dum-ass Gummit would seek to impose heftier fines and disqualification terms for offences like Driving While Disqualified...don't they understand that these people are not deterred by rules and regulations and fines, they are likely to reoffend. The only thing that deters 'em is JAIL ie LOSS OF FREEDOM. MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 She repeatedly pointed 2 fingers in the direction of the system, and when the system came back with a lot bigger set of 2 fingers, she cries poor me. I see now the same fate has befallen Sue Grey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
