"The free school lunch program was one of Labour's few actual
achievements in government. Decent food, made locally, providing local >employment. So naturally, National had to get rid of it. Their
replacement - run by Compass, a multinational which had already been
thrown out of our hospitals for producing inedible slop - has been a >disaster. Inedible food, which does not meet dietry requirements, and
which is sometimes contaminated with plastic or causes severe injury.
The only thing we haven't seen yet is a mass-poisoning, but that's
probably only a matter of time. And now the primary subcontractor has
gone bankrupt as a result of lowballing the bid, putting the whole
scheme in doubt.
The good news is that the former providers are ready to step up and
fix things. It would be a popular move: a Talbot Mills poll released
today shows that 60% of people want the old system restored. A
sensible government responsive to voters would recognise this, and do
it. But for National, it would mean admitting that they made a
mistake. And rather than do that, they'll likely just cancel the
entire system out of spite, having set it up for failure in the first
place. Because when faced with a choice between feeding kids, and
admitting they fucked up, they’d rather let kids starve. It’s just the
sort of monsters they are."

There have now been numerous people from the industry expressing
concern at the incompetence of Seymour - his inability to take into
account anything but price, and his unwillingness to accept any
advice, or to be accountable to the Minister of Education. He claims
to have been keeping the Prime Minister informed, which has just
confirmed that Luxon is equally useless in assessing basic management
issues, let alone showing any leadership. Seymour is again effectively
say f. you to parliament and to the people of New Zealand. Hopefully
Luxon will decide that as Deputy PM, Seymour will not have time to
take any portfolio - the two of them can then sit and do nothing, to
the benefit of all of New Zealand.

It is ironic Rich that your only comment has nothing to do with school >lunches as covered in the article you cited. The point of this post
is therefore is purely anti-Seymour political rhetoric using the
school lunch program as cannon-fodder.
