Now recall these are over a 12 month period so only the last two data points reflect an entire year under National. Basically from 2022 to 2024 the number of NZers who were violently or sexually assaulted increased from 160,000 to 215,000 or 45,000 more victims. It has now dropped to 157,000 and hopefully will continue to decline.

So in the 12 months from July 2023 to June 2024 62,000 Māori were the victims or violent or sexual assaults. In the last 12 months it was only 23,000 – a reduction of 37%.
I am awaiting the press release from Te Pati Maori welcoming this.

Even better news - a reduction of 63%
I expect you'll be waiting some time, David. As for the Greens, they want to defund the Police, so even more of them can get up to no good with less risk of being brought to account.
What are theories why? The return of 3 strikes? Has the banning of gang patches created a realisation generally that may not be treated with kid gloves. (The b.s character reports have been largey done away with.) Visible cops down town?
Maybe all of the above Robert?
