Tenants in our own land

"John Hartevelt says that John Key has brought the controversy on himself with his ‘tenants in own land’ rhetoric, and now fails to be able to explain why his effective support for the sale to Pengxin is not hypocritical – see: Sun always shines in the land of Key. This is particularly ironic as taxpayers (in the form of Landcorp) will indeed be the tenants, and the new owners are backed by cheap credit from the Chinese Government, who appear to have no qualms about actively supporting acquisition of assets."

Bryce Edwards points interested New Zealanders in the right direction over the Pengxin sale.

Depressingly correct as is your analysis under your post on "Asset sales".

At what point will 'tenant' become 'serf'?
