Green MP Tamatha Paul has launched a fundraising campaign for a group wanting to “defund the police” and close the court system.
Paul has been attracting attention over recent weeks for her comments about policing and support of groups that call for the abolition of police, jails, and courts. While she and the Green Party have denied wanting to “defund the police”, Paul’s continued support for those pursuing that goal has led to further questions for her party.
Her fundraiser for People Against Prisons Aotearoa started over the weekend.
The Greens are radical extremists. Paul has been very consistent in her views. Here is what PAPA’s policy agenda is:
- Abolish all prisons
- Abolish the Police
- Make it illegal to take criminal records into account in employment
- Close the NZ court system
- Ensure every prisoner has an irrevocable right of access to LGBTIQ-affirming literature!
- Have community based sentences for rapists and murderers

She's the greens police spokesperson, you are kidding ?? This can't get any better, luxon and Co should be just giving the mike and TV coverage to the far left parties, they will have hung themselves by the end of the week. They can't help themselves can they?
Has anyone checked if these guys are actually sane and fit to run a country?
I look forward to the Greens co-leaders early confirmation that the party's Police and Corrections spokeperson's views represent Green party policy.
Exactly anon at 8.09. Just give them more rope but don't tell them thats what you're doing, not that they would understand anyway.
David left out the part about abolishing sex offender registries.
I wonder what the thinking here is if you get death threats (say), then someone actually gets murdered. What to do then? Sadly, just more complete nonsense from the Greens - a simple reflection of their self-indulgent luxury beliefs.
