Harawira fights charges (+his words)
1 min readThis message just came through from MP Hone Harawira, his simple words, his account of the court proceedings:
Kia ora
Went to court. 5 minutes. Spoke in Maori.
Refused to accept the right of the court to charge me for defending the homeless. Recorded as a not guilty plea.
Stood down till Nov 8 which will just be to set a date for a defended hearing.
Charge is so petty, it is only a finable offence.
Others copped obstruction and other charges and non-association orders as well.
Good crowd. Good support. Good media. Good bye.
Hone
Too much Hone,The govt is trying to make NZ like AMerica Multi cultural diversity.Housing NZ is putting refugees and aliens in them state housing.
