'Scott Simpson needs to take a deep breath' - Jim Bolger

From Morning Report, 8:40 am on 6 June 2018

The government says workers need a fairer deal on pay and conditions, and has chosen former National Party Prime Minister Jim Bolger to lead a group to study ways to achieve it. The group includes union and business leaders and will look at ways to set up agreements that cover industries and occupations. National calls it a backward step, with MP Scott Simpson dismissing both the project and Mr Bolger's role in it. Mr Bolger tells Susie Ferguson Mr Simpson needs to take a deep breath.
