Just ask The Fay consortium to increase their bid by $30m and the problem sorted! I really hope people can put their money where their mouth is.

@Proudcofusedkiwinationalist: You can be as confused as you want, but my Great Grandparents didn't fight in the world wars so that we could just be bought. They fought for our land, and now it's just been sold to the highest bidder, meaning NZers will have to pay the world price for what they fought for. There are unbound amounts of money in China and they can buy us and sell us many times over. It surprises me the veterans aren't storming out of their graves.
