Intimidation
Is Never Acceptable
“Intimidation of children, parents
and teachers at Insoll Avenue Primary School by protestors
has been an unacceptable blight on our fundamental
freedoms,” said New Zealand First MP Doug Woolerton
today.
“These Acts are more in tune with what one might
have expected to have occurred in northern Ireland,” he
said.
“Mallard’s talk of calling on police to escort
parents and children to and from school was a nonsense as if

job much earlier then he was, and parents and children could
have been spared the embarrassment and dislocation to their
education.
If this unfortunate situation should ever arise
again the police should be called to remove the protesters
immediately concluded,” Doug
Woolerton.
