Cyclists 'just too poor' for a car, says PM

The Prime Minister has blasted people crossing Molesworth Street cycle lane.

Christopher Luxon has hit out at the public following his earlier comments on how a cycleway apparently completely blocks access between the luxury Kate Sheppard apartment complex and the Parliament grounds.

Speaking from the interior of his taxpayer-funded limousine, the PM railed against several demonstrations that the harrowing road crossing, despite what Luxon would have us all believe, is in fact possible.

“Look, what I’ll just say to you is, those cycleways just get in the way of me going to Parliament to receive the entitlements that I’m entitled to. And, you know, those bottom feeders are too poor to afford to be driven to Parliament like me, because I’m wealthy; I’m, you know, sorted…they should just work harder and get driven like I do.”
