But perhaps Mr Turnovsky's greatest problem is his view of New Zealand society. He denied flatly that there was any sort of class structure in this country, and proved his assertion by stating that he lived in the same street as Maoris and workers. In Mr Turnovsky's eyes, the interests of the Manufacturers' Federation are the interests of all New Zealanders.
