MP Green Tamatha Paul sings anti-policy songs after police comments

She also said that it is “completely possible” to “configure institutions that exceed a lot of police functions.”

“The people in Wellington do not want to see police officers everywhere and, for many people, it makes them feel less safe. It is that constant visual presence that tells you that you could not be safe there, if there are piles of police,” she said.

“All I do is walk all day, waiting for the homeless to leave their place, pack their things and throw it in the cart.”

Her comments were erupted by politicians, including a potential future coalition partner.

The leader of the work, Chris Hipkins, said that the comments are “poorly informed, were not wise and, in fact, they were stupid. I do not think that the members of the responsible Parliament should undermine the police in this way.”

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said he is “pretty scandalous and crazy to be honest.” He said the police make an “incredible job” And Paul was “in La La Land”.

Act David Seymour and Winston Peters from NZ First spoke, and the National Police Minister Mark Mitchell stressed that Wellington Central has undergone a 5.5% drop in violent crime since the rhythm teams were implemented.

After the critical coverage week, Paul climbed the stage on Cuba St on Saturday night. She shared clips of her DJ on Instagram.

The songs he played included The sound of the police yes by rapper Krs-One and Killing by name by the Rock Furie band against the car.

The songs focus on police and corruption in America.

The lyrics include “the officer has the right to arrest and if you fight back, I put a hole in your chest”, with The sound of the police yes Comparing modern officers with “supervisors” on a plantation during slavery.

Killing by name Includes a repeated line “some of the working forces are the same crosses’ burns”, which connect Ku Klux Klan. The song ends with the well -known song: “F *** I will not do what you tell me.”

Paul shouted to love for the crowd and shouted “I will never be, ever, I will never close F ***.”

The co-leader of the Green Party, Chlöe Swarbrick, rejected the questions about Paul’s set.

“At the moment, there are the New Zealand who live cold, hungry and homeless,” she said.

“We have real problems in this country and I do not think that the police of people’s musical taste should be one of them.”
