   Remarkable to see both 🇳🇿 Government and Opposition parties coming   
   together   
      
   to support an anti-slavery bill that a key part of the Government   
   coalition doesn’t seem to like.   
      
   Not sure why ACT is not in favour of codifying into law such   
   protections for vulnerable workers. On the TV3 news this evening, ACT   
   leader David Seymour said something particularly lame, about why the   
   bill only imposes requirements on companies with annual turnovers of   
   $100 million or more, while leaving out those beneath that. Would that   
   mean he would have supported the bill if the threshold had been lower?   
   Looks like it was just an excuse.
