The Minister of Foreign Affairs of New Zealand (!) is out there (again) making racist remarks. This time against China, Aotearoa's most important trading partner.
I am no diplomat but, is this good and normal?

I'd like to think that a requirement to become Minister of Foreign Affairs would be "don't be openly racist", but clearly I am just a simpleton, not ready for the intricacies of international diplomacy. #NZPol #VoteThemOut
