From the Herald: Hipkins confirmed Nash had breached the Cabinet Manual in multiple ways - by not exercising a professional approach or good judgment in interaction with officials and by commenting on and involving himself in the results of particular cases.
“The Minister has reflected on his actions and agrees it is no longer tenable for him to hold the Police portfolio,” Hipkins said.
“As such Minister Nash has offered me his resignation from the Police portfolio, effective immediately. I have advised the Governor General to accept it and she has done so.”
After being soft on crime and being pro-crims, Hipkins and Labour decided to let Nash loose with his mouth to talk tough on crime.
Result?
He shot himself in the foot and shot Labour in the head!
LOL!

And the sentencing Nash was so critical of?
Not gang or criminal related - basically a farmer who refused to surrender his firearm as he wanted to protect himself!
So it’s clear - Labour supports gangs and crims but be careful if you are not related to gangs or crime, this government will come after you.

An own goal in a moment of unbelievable stupidity by announcing on radio he had once questioned the Police Commissioner if he would appeal a judges dismissal, but would anyone seriously believe previous Police Ministers like Woodhouse, Collins, Bennett or Tolley had never out of interest had the occasional confidential chat with their Police Commissioners about various Court decisions.
I mean you just would wouldn't you, we question them so why wouldn't a Minister, but so stupid to state it publicly.
Good to see Hipkins taking immediate & firm action though & a shame Luxon does nothing about National MP Barbara Kuriga who used her position to interfere & intimidate MPI officials & even attempt to get one fired, for investigating her son & husband for animal cruelty.

Nash played ‘big dick’ politics with crime & order, and got his dong shot off - that’s what happened.

Does every farmer really needs a military stye AR-15, a 12 Gauge shotgun, a couple of AR-15 magazines, a couple of Ruger magazines, plus thousands of rounds of ammunition to protect themselves?
How much ammunition do you need?
And you need a licence to have these weapons.
AR-15's are the weapon most commonly used in mass shootings in the US & not the sort of weapon hunters use.

Good to see the media picking up on the hypocrisy of Hipkins ‘punishing’ Nash :
https://www.newsroom.co.nz/nashs-poo...half-the-story
When Hipkins says Nash has paid the price, he’s only been punished for the first part – making the phone call – and the conflict that creates as the minister in charge of police.
By not stripping him of his other portfolios, Hipkins has done nothing to respond to Nash’s inability to identify that his actions were unwise, unprofessional, and made him unfit for any ministerial role.
If after almost six years as a minister, Nash still doesn’t know what breaching the Cabinet manual looks like how can Hipkins trust him not to do it again?

Meanwhile, here’s what Labour’s healthcare reform is delivering :
https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/...surgery-delays
The usual BS spin from Labour and no delivery with heathcare getting worse and worse.
And remember the pulpit of truth?
https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/486042/te-whatu-ora-still-checking-health-data-after-ed-figures-revealed-incorrect
Te Whatu Ora is still checking whether it has published any more incorrect data, a week after emergency department figures were revealed to be seriously wrong.
All performance data was taken down from the health agency's website last week to check whether it also contained mistakes.

Give police 'extra eyes' community leader says after four businesses burgled in Bell Block
What did everyone expect with such braindead policies coming out of Labour's Meathead contingent on Front Benches ?

My son is a farmer and a hunter. No idea what kind of shotgun he uses, but he would agree with you 100% re the AR-15s etc. I have no problem with farmers and hunters having what they need, but they do not need assault weapons. Nobody does except the military.
