Green MP Tamatha Paul is giving shoplifting the green light as she opposes the Government’s plan to strengthen penalties, National Party Spokesperson for Justice Paul Goldsmith says.
“The Greens are singing from the same old song sheet, making excuses for anyone who attacks or steals from hard working New Zealanders.”
Yesterday Ms Paul said, “if people don’t have enough money to buy food, then they’re going to look towards shoplifting things.”
The Greens always take the side of the criminals. Personally I would have thought they would stay quiet about shoplifting considering one of their MPs who was on a $175,000 salary shoplifted. Does Ms Paul think that was because she couldn’t afford food?
“That seems to be okay with her and the Green Party. Does Labour agree?” Mr Goldsmith says.
Hopefully media will ask them.
