Labour's David Parker reflects on the rapidly changing world, underlying drivers for change, and how Labour would return to a more evenhanded foreign policy
I like your closing statement. I couldn’t attend the session being based in Hokitika these days and while I’m pleased Parker is signaling a desire for an independent foreign policy, the fact that Labour recently appeared to have abandoned that without notice makes me dubious of trusting them in the immediate future. That plus his view on Ukraine is disappointing. Doesn’t he recognise that there too has been a civil war for a long time now and foreign powers such as the US have played a major role in the current situation?
