POLICE AND THEIR MINISTER DUCK MAORI PARTY QUESTION WHICH DREW ATTENTION TO SOMETHING TROUBLING ABOUT CHILDREN AND THE COPS
Yes, we are aware of the Maori Party’s aversion to Parliamentary questions from Opposition MPs which aim to flush the PM and her government into the open on their programme of incorporating the “Treaty partnership” in their reform programme.

Māori Party co-leaders Debbie Ngarewa-Packer and Rawiri Waititi have also won publicity this week by declaring their intent to fight the Government’s proposed laws targeting gangs.
The Government announced earlier this week that it will introduce Firearm Protection Orders to bar “high risk” people from owning, using or accessing firearms in a move targeting gangs and organised crime.
It is also proposing legislation to enable the seizure of assets from people associated with organised crime.......
