So it seems like a burglar broke Winston's window and not the "radical left" . I wonder if the old fella will retract anything??

Won't stop the local nz politics right wing incel club from blaming the greens though

When of course the scrutiny should be on their own champions, instead they'll lie and twist on the head of a pin..

The Green Party says MP Benjamin Doyle is being sent an "immense" number of death threats.

When it's necessary to stop the incel rage on here I might jump in

Probably a burglar with no history of burglary, that didn’t steal anything and left some sort of threatening note, during a political protest. Name suppression so the journos can’t look into them

In any case, I don’t care but that’s my cynical read

Addresses are pretty easy to look up online (companies office & property websites)

And where is it exactly?

Well, sometimes when you're actively involved in things it's hard to see the picture from the outside

Again some good advice for you to reflect in yourself and also another way of not providing the example

Those that support the protests against Winston Peters - he is part of a Government. Part of a team. That team makes collective decisions and accepts collective responsibility.

Those blaming the individual for a team decision will be ignoramus’s that would attack Mitch Barnett’s house because someone missed a tackle in a Wahs game! We have a few Greens supporters on here with those exact TYPE of views…

Oh, but it’s legal to protest outside Mitch Barnetts house

Yeah, if you put Winston's partners name into the company's registry you'll find an address in the suburb this event took place.
It's interesting that a large portion of the anti-pharmaceutical crowd voted for Winston when you consider it's actually the industry his partner has made a career in & has attained a lot of her wealth from

Go listen to Casey Costellos speech about Bussy Boy, clearly defines the values of the right and left, I’d be ashamed to be a lefty.

I'd be ashamed to come up with such a dickhead homophobe comment like yours, but hey, each to their own

The pressure on the greens this week really getting to you?

Settle down. Politics shouldn’t be personal or you’re probably over invested in it all. Next week it will probably be another party doing ridiculous stuff.

I know it feels like the Greens have had a particularly bad run… actually they are just particularly bad at the moment.

One needs to understand the definition of Burglary under the Crimes Act - it has nothing to do with stealing

Every one commits burglary and is liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years who—

(a) enters any building or ship, or part of a building or ship, without authority and with intent to commit an imprisonable offence in the building or ship; or​

(b) having entered any building or ship, remains in it without authority and with intent to commit an imprisonable offence in the building or ship.​

In this section and in section 232, building means any building or structure of any description, whether permanent or temporary; and includes a tent, caravan, or houseboat; and also includes any enclosed yard or any closed cave or closed tunnel.
For the purposes of this section and section 232,—

(a) entrance into a building or ship is made as soon as any part of the body of the person making the entrance, or any part of any instrument used by that person, is within the building or ship; and​

(b) every one who gains entrance to a building or ship by any threat or artifice used for that purpose is to be treated as having entered without authority.​

Not a bad speech in reply to Doyle tbh.

But the reality is she herself should be out of government for her conduct and relationship with the tobacco lobby groups.
It's hypocritical to lecture about the sanctity of parliament and ignore that element of her own career.

Good of her to speak on the topic. She wanted nothing to do with telling the public how she came to her conclusion regarding what you’ve highlighted
