Pretty much wraps it up.

782005 2009-06-15 01:29:00 Is there poverty and hunger in NZ? Sue Bradford and her mob would have us believe this!

I don't think so... www.imagef1.net.nz

OMG, thats a dreadful photo, its no wonder the photographer killed himself later after walking away......no doubt he got a bit of grief when people heard what he had done!

Poverty in NZ, probably, however I think a lot of it is self inflected but poor money management!

782006 2009-06-15 05:08:00 When I saw this and posted it, I also thought all sorts of things, like others have posted here. It doesn't matter really whether the photographer fed her, whether the parents were getting food for her, whether the pic was set up or anything at all really.

What it comes down to is... "For heavens sake, look at the kid" - and thank heaven our Kiwi kids do not go so hungry as to look like that. The parents probably much the same build and degree of starvation.

782008 2009-06-15 05:31:00 We have poverty in NZ, no doubt. But real poverty? No.

90% of those that claim to be in 'poverty' are there because of their own damn fault. When they put their smokes/booze/pot/sky tv before the food and rent, then well, let them figure it out themselves. If they die (unlikely), it'll only improve the gene pool.

782010 2009-06-16 01:59:00 You would expect the photographer took the picture, borrowed a gun shot the buzzard grabbed the kid and took her to safety.
Anything less would be man slaughter.
