TPP deal signed off as thousands took to central Auckland in protest

New Zealand is now officially part of the world's largest ever free trade deal. Local officials joined ministers from 11 other countries to sign the controversial Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement. But long before the ink was dry, the Auckland CBD rocked with thousands of people in protest.

N.Z will become ravaged... look up "NAFTA" and then see if the TPPA will benefit kiwi's... only the wealthy benefit... it's always been this way and will continue.

well if you say "it's always been like this" so your saying TPPA didn't make a difference? we need to be educated on a lot of things.

Vern Tran what I'm saying is, the wealthy have always been this way. Corruption and greed has never changed...only the depth of exploitation has. No one needs to be educated to understand this...it's clear in history also. "NAFTA" is a clear example of what our government should of avoided... Get ready to face difficulty.
