Luxon surely could have headed this waste off? “Over half the total money that must be spent on local referendums on Māori seats will be shouldered by councils that didn’t record a single vote against the ward” (If you’re not a subscriber try later in the weekend)

The non-affiliated members of my family maintain strong relationships with the affiliated ones & vice versa. I've always thought connection is good especially for the marginalized folk in our family. I reckon this law makes that much harder. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Police say gang patches are a license to print money. But what counts as gang insignia, and what will police be able to about them under the new law?

Listening to a journalist on our state broadcaster talk about the 'professionalism' of the attack. The linguistic gymnastics all morning to avoid words like 'terrorism'. We deserve better.

My family member had a psychotic break. Medics needed to take police because my relative threatened violence. While there police photographed syringes & gang patches. My relative refused medical care. Luxon understands nothing about reducing crime. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

The Prime Minister can't put a timeframe on when law and order policies will start to reduce the number of victims.

Sorry this is bizarre why are we taking announcements on government roles from the political party rather than a minister? Who gives a crap what the ACT party apparatus thinks? Seymour, as Minister, needs to respond to the consequences of his actions.
