It remains DEVASTATING! No words to describe what this beautiful country has become at the hands of its own 'leaders'

The government are criminals, liers, bullies and a disgrace to the human race. They have tried to divide us and when they couldn't succeed they used brute force and lies to turn Kiwis against Kiwis, friends against friends and family members against family members. They should be made to stand down and lose their jobs, without any pay. Why should we tax payers give them our hard earn money for running our country into the ground. They should all be put in jail for their unforgivable crimes.

Yes it was very disappointing to see the brutal cruel inhumane behavior of the police and many others that acted on behalf of the gov jc. Shocking behavior and her coming out congratulating the police.

But the TRUTH will always STAND.

I know some very AMAZING POLICE OFFICERS so this not to those AWESOME POLICE OFFICERS.

I hesitate somewhat because my daughter has just graduated for the POLICE FORCE it was through an AMAZING POLICE OFFICER we called UNCLE NORM 💙

I do know that is the CALL ON HER LIFE but there must come a change in the GOVERNMENT CURRENT who suppose to SERVE the CITERZINS of OUR NATION AOTEAROA

NOT DICTATE THEIR OWN GREED AND POLICIES and BEAT THE CITERZINS when they dont meet HER OR THEIR GREEDY HARMFUL POLICIES.

Otherwise the MINDSET of the POLICE and other MILITARY OFFICIALS or SAFETY OFFICERS will be the SAME AS HERS/THEIRS in PARLIAMENT

DO NOT CHANGE OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM

While I very much appreciate the chronicling of this terrible event - which from all I've seen is an accurate portrayal of events no doubt instigated by the government, I cannot but help feeling apprehensive of the unquestioning acceptance in what is otherwise a good piece of journalism, of the existence and apparent legitimization of a separate government of New Zealand.

Is this not playing somewhat into the present governments own plans for normalizing a separatist agenda? Has no one taken note of the apartheid and turmoil of South Africa?

Great article. But that photo of Police pushing a trolley of bricks.. was that before or after the riot.. im.only asking because my partner said the bricks that were used were the bricks that went around the trees... and there were no trolleys full of bricks.. unless those bricks in the trolley were for the police to use against the protesters..

"Independent media journalist Chantelle Baker actually unmasked one of these thugs on her live stream". Can this sentence please be removed from your article. The man that Chantelle unmasked was not associated with Antifa. I have been in direct contact with Chantelle and she has gone back over her own footage and concurs that she may have falsely accused him in heat of the moment. This man had been living at Freedom Village for many days. I know him personally.

Great read. I do wonder about the "investigation" being undertaken as it's only for what happened on Parliament grounds. What about what happened that day on surrounding streets, is that going to be investigated?. The Police (sworn and unsworn) did not seem to have anyone properly controlling them or their behaviour or actions. They couldn't cope with having people turn their backs to them. I do believe that the call from people on social media for help to hold the line did bring out some pretty hard ass people who were not peaceful protestors. I also saw what seemed to be 2 or 3 boys (13-15 yrs) picking up bricks and throwing at Police. I don't believe they were protesters I think they were just little shits with attitude of "game on"!!. WE elected our Government to do what's best for us, the people. In this instance they have not.
