Jamie Mackay: host of The Country on rural New Zealand's reaction to He Waka Eke Noa - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

Anger, frustration and discontentment are some emotions that the scheme inspired from the farming community.

Jamie Mackay, host of The Country, is here to put all these emotions into context and explain that the backlash is less about having to pay for emissions and more about the nature of the bill- the tax scheme is unlikely to stop methane based damage.
