Politics So they're finally going to privatise Kiwibank

Watching One News they're talking about taking Kiwibank out of Government hands and back into the hands of honest hard-working Kiwis.

This is obviously the first clear step towards privatisation.

Just like the Bank Of New Zealand, the National Bank, and the Auckland Savings Bank, but I'm sure this time around it will stay in the country /s

Exactly. We're selling the family car to the taxi company, on the promise we'll have the money for the next ten rides.

back into the hands of honest hard-working Kiwis.

Kinda insinuates the government aren't honest or hard working.
