Parliament grounds clean-up crew to show ‘what community actually looks like’ video
Wellington volunteers are planning to clean up Parliament grounds in order to return the area to the public now protesters who have occupied the site for more than three weeks have been evicted.
The way some are holding that fucking slide up as some sort of religious sacred ground is driven by a political need to justify the Police action.
If you label everyone protesting as a Nazi, you need to fetishise the damage they did.
These Nazi Monsters on Parliament’s lawns didn’t have pronouns, the Left only like protests that know their pronouns.
The slide is more important than the people whose pain burnt it because the smelly Lumpenproletariat ruined the dinner party aesthetics of Wellington’s Middle Class Marxists.
The $585000 slide was always an expensive virtue signal while 25000 rot on emergency housing wait lists.
The canonisation of Parliament’s lawns is an important myth that must now be worshiped to justify State force.
There will be taxpayer funded art to commemorate the hate crime of protest, local artisans will knit together a peace quilt weaving together their pubic hair with recycled sustainable plastics.
Every native tree replanted will need a ceremony and its own twitter account.
The replacement slide will get a live interview with John Campbell.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Press Gallery call for a statue of Trevor Mallard to be built to commemorate him fighting the Nazis off the lawn.
The pain of those who suffered the harshest yoke of economic sanctions will be cauterised and amputated so that middle class dinner party aesthetic activism can once again rule Wellington.
You can build your fucking slide after we’ve housed those 25000 waiting on emergency housing lists.

“ Desecrated “ was blatantly sloppy terminology. Ignoring the fact that it bestowed undeserved avatar qualities upon very mediocre politicians, it designated all the protestors sociopath vandals, when it was clear that they were a disparate group, who in many ways do in fact define what we are, a society with many problems which are not being addressed, and which are worsening. Pretty words change nothing. Some media do appear to realise this, even if the politicians are unable to.
Agree Applewood
I don’t think RNZ read my letter out, the one about them going on about the ‘mammoth’ clean up and how terrible the scene was the task is. They seemed to have the grounds in then order of the ‘fields’ of Passchendaele.
I simply said that ‘mammoth’ was Christchurch and the road down the coast after the Kaikoura ‘quake.
The sign holder made a choice based on some information gleaned from social media to not join in to help safeguard those less vulnerable people and fight the war against this virus . If he does not like the consequences he should have added that in when he chose not to get vaccinated it does not give him the right to destroy other people’s lives who have done their bit .
I think the sign holder may be a woman, but apart from that, spot on.
The sign holder has lost job and home – that is something that government should be helping more with. Real pain and hardship there.
But the sign also implies that the person’s only concern is for themself and too bad if shopkeepers lost their business. The fact that a micro business can be as much of a burden as a baby and need care from possibly poor people who themselves might lose home and job as a flow-on effect – doesn’t sink in.
The money needs to be trickling through and helping those who do some specified task, share a car, babysit, form small teams who share resources, and can apply for extras, even just universal supermarket vouchers.
Does someone who chooses not to get vaccinated deserve to lose their income? Is this a fair outcome in terms of natural justice? Not really – in my opinion. Yes – they made a decision that went against the majority but could we not have done more to protect them from unjustified consequences?
Even now – the government could address this economic injustice – it would cauterize the wound and allow those affected by the vaccine mandates to feel like they have been given some restoration and can move on.
The alternative course of action is to allow this to become a festering, toxic, political boil that will burst out all over the next election in the form of votes for the Act Party.
How was the sign holder destroying others’ lives?
Genuine question, I don’t know what you’re referring to.
Thank god for you Martyn and your commentary on this………
The building of the playground in parliament grounds never seemed right to me in the first case, almost a let them eat cake scenario.
“Jacinda “oh the playground not the playground”……
I frequently walk in parliament grounds and for a playground it was very underused, but of course that is not the point….
It’s obscene it cost half a million dollars when people are living in motels.
Ps love your humour, sometimes I think humour is all we have in these times
Anker Agree even if it didn’t cost half a mill.??
You’re 100% correct Martyn.
Sniff! sniff! I smell propaganda. Desecrated – my arse! It’s not a church. It’s patch of grass.
This is Ardern yet again ginning up division in the community.
A recent poll asked if New Zealanders and New Zealand is less divided or more divided than a year ago. The results were that a huge 72% said more divided and only 10% less divided.
Left, right, who cares. Most of the rabble left at the end of the protest probably couldn’t identify a political leaning if they had to. In the end it was just a group of people, most if them angry who believed what they read on some social media platform that vaguely resonated with how they see the world. Many of them probably incapable of understanding basic science and possibly semi literate. Nothing will change. Nobody cared about them before and no one will care about them tomorrow. That’s New Zealand for you. The great egalitarian society.
Oh blah blah police bad blah must show individual principles police faulty blah blah blah. Holy angel babe take your rest, we are all tizzed up and need a break from constant annoying events, especially to peaceful Wainuiomata Marae; or are you on steroids as Putin is supposed to be. Too much, already!
You can hardly blame people wanting to clean up reclaim the city they live in
Yes the sanctify of those grounds matter. It is the peoples house. 2.9 million new Zealanders cast their vote to be represented in that house. We are a democratic society not one of angry mob rule. We change governments and laws at the ballot box not joining up with a bunch of the delusional, the hateful, the vial, the mad and the sad to enforce our will on the people.
They tried to set fire to the very notion of democracy. That building and it’s grounds mean something. Those war memorials they vandalized mean something.
It’s the peoples house. Those people set fire to, dumped shit trashed vandalized , blocked access and for weeks took the rights of all other protest movements by refusing to move. They clogged roads and terrorized a city. They live stremed threats of insurrections, public hangings, through faeces attacked working class staff at supermarkets, cafes ,buses, bars, dairy’s and abused the locals for weeks you can hardly expect the locals to not want to reclaim their town.
And you can hardly be surprised that the people of this country wanted these people vandalizing and trashing the peoples house removed.
I’m sad that some of the protesters who were peaceful albeit deluded got mixed up with the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of vile thugs, charlatans con artists and wannabe insurrectionists but they stood with them.
To this day they are talking about hangings and murdering our politicians and people openly online. They filmed themselves commiting serious crimes. Many will go to , most will now have serious criminal records and never be able to pass a security check to get a rental or a job. All for nothing.
They are now smashing up the bridge of remembrance in chch, trying to force their way on maraes.
I stand with the people who have to clean up this mess in their towns, who haven’t been able to go to work at their min wage supermarket or cafe job , who are refusing to let violent mentally unwell ferals on their sacred marae land and who will fix the memorials they trashed.
I hope the ones who were peaceful are able to see reality one day.
I hope the insurrectionists, agitators, plotters, arsonists, propagandists and vandilizers and assaulters get long, long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long stints in jail.
The threats of the significant minority of qnon, alt right violent insurrectionists and their continued threats should not be ignored mocked or minimized.
Ive said for a long time the left needed to stop calling everyone they don’t like Nazis cos it dilutes the word and makes it meaningless and there actual facist scum out there and now they are at the door.
It wasn’t a right wing protest or a left wing protest but there was a significant amount of dangerous lunatics there who seem to continuously be minimized and they are planning more disruption.
Thank you Corey, the gleam in your eyes throughout this help illuminate my fears at your righteousness.
You see Martyn, you’re being condescending yourself. Which part of Corey’s statement is incorrect?
Thanks again Martyn. Nailed it with humour
Unfortunately I work for a living. I miss out on all the fun.
And all the real news.
@ Danny Boy.
Your paymaster, Luxon, finds the money to pay you and should be able to find the money for the clean-up from his liar’s tax cuts, whatever it takes.
Lower the taxes for the rich and they will sponsor the clean-up (with sponsorship of the grounds rights included).
https://thedailyblog.co.nz/2016/06/04/435-lies-by-john-key/
Just like his glove puppet/mentor John Key. Watch GST go up to 20% under Luxon.
It’ll be more money for the rich and bugger all for the poor. Another pale, stale mother of all budgets.
By the way, why didn’t Minister of Finance Simon Bridges announce the tax cuts for the rich?
Luxon and co have been baying for a Capital Gains Tax to drive down house prices. Now that would be an election winner for the Nats and Act, the New Conservatives and Destiny Church Political Party coalition after the next election.
Conveniently ironic that Bridges AND Luxon have a similar strain of Covid that Donald Trump had? Won’t be able to go into finer details of theit tax reduction for the rich “tax cuts”. So, if NACT are getting rid of all Labour’s tax changes, does that mean that landlords, and say, hypothetically, someone with more than 6 houses might bd ablr to claim back “rental expenses again”
Good time to allegedly catch Covid if you ask me.
