Rocket for non-voting sharemilkers

Sharemilkers’ failure to vote in the dairy levy referendum has fired up their Federated Farmers chairman, Neil Filer, to give them a rocket.
Reading Time: < 1 minute

“The last time I checked only 20% of sharemilkers had voted and that’s a shocker turnout,” he said.

“It’s like seeing only 100 people physically in Eden Park for the upcoming England test.

“I need to send a rocket to our guys to pull finger and vote.

“We’re the ones that get the most from the levy as it sets up the best possible industry for us.

“I tell you this, if the troops don’t vote, that could be taken as indifference to brilliant things like Progression Groups.

“If you snooze on this vote we’ll all lose unless our guys do something about it.

“A vote takes much shorter time than boiling a kettle.

“You can do it online or by fax and there’s still time to do it by post as well,” Filer said.
