When the Prime Minister claims that Government departments are not good at running enterprises, he’s telling on himself. Because who is in charge of Government departments? The Prime Minister.

Luxon thinks we need a "mature conversation" about selling state assets... But I don't think he really means that, because a mature conversation would look at the history of failure and the shortsighted focus on profit ahead of public interest.
He wants a conversation where we agree with him.
