More meth…
Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has asked his justice and police ministers to look at what more can be done to tackle methamphetamine use in New Zealand, which has nearly doubled in two years.
Police data shows an “unprecedented 96% increase in meth consumption when compared to 2023, with consumption increasing across all sites”.
The Drugs in Wastewater 2024 Annual Overview shows the minimal annual consumption jumping from 732 kilograms to 1434, identifying a social harm cost of $1.5 billion last year.
Luxon said he was “quite concerned” by the figures.
…more guns…
Concern at ‘very visible’ gun threat
Police are alarmed at the number of “very visible” gun crimes after a spate of incidents involving firearms over the weekend, including one that left a man dead.
…the guns and meth go hand in hand now because the massive new criminal organisations running NZs meth trade also ship guns to protect that meth trade.
You will all vividly remember how TDB was the first to explain the reasons for the Gang Wars and spike in meth eh?
You will remember that it was TDB who was pointing out that despite decades of being fear mongered by our Politicians about domestic gang violence, we argued our domestic organised crime were not in the same league of criminal sophistication as Australia’s crime culture and that the 501s being forced back here were forming syndicates and standing over the local gangs and that this presented a unique danger to NZ because our local thick-o cops have no capacity to deal with organised crime that uses counter-intelligence tactics.
TDB argued that we faced a unique threat with 501 syndicates using their South American Cartel links to import cheaper and more pure meth and that these syndicates were using extreme violence against local gang chapters and were patching them over.
TDB argued that this posed a unique threat because South American Cartels are so powerful and sophisticated, they could do enormous damage here.
Instead the Government decided to waste time and energy on banning gang patches and pretending that somehow solves organised crime.
If we were serious about cracking down on organised crime and not just paying lip service to it, we would hire 100 Mandarin speaking police officers.
The biggest reason why the spike in meth is occurring is because the Chinese are deeply involved.
What we refuse to acknowledge because our Fourth Estate media is dead, is that Shadow Chinese Banking services have created the infrastructure for the 501 syndicates in NZ to pay South American Cartels directly via Shadow Chinese Banking services.
Don’t believe me?
Think I’m being ‘xenophobic’?
Yeah, the expose in the Financial Times at how wide spread Chinese shadow banking for criminal organisations has become also notes Auckland in the global chain of this criminal empire.
Let me spell it out incase you are missing my point.
SHUT. DOWN. THE. CHINESE. SHADOW. BANKING. SERVICES!
They are providing banking infrastructure to the cartels FFS, that’s why we are flooded with Meth – because the suppliers and the dealers can easily transfer the money to buy and sell the meth, that means all they need to do is smuggle in the product without worrying about moving the cash around.
It makes the drug dealing very easy.
NZ was slow to understand what was happening with the influx of 501s.
NZ was slow to comprehend that as much as we had been telling people our gangs were bad, they weren’t in the same league of extreme violence and criminals sophistication of those who were being forced here.
NZ is not seeing the link between Chinese shadow banking, 501 syndicates and South American Cartels.
If we want people off meth, we have to have fully funded 3month rehabilitation programmes that we can fund from a legalised cannabis market.
Otherwise meth addiction will rise and the South American Cartels will get a foot in our door. Bribing Police and Judges will be next.
Nothing National is suggesting by banning Gang Patches or Military Boot Camps is anything more than virtue signalling rhetoric for their frightened electorate.
It’s more important to bash Māori gangs and promise retribution against them than it is it actually deal to the financial structure of Chinese shadow banking that is enabling 501 syndicates to profit from the billion dollar meth trade.
We are easily manipulated muppets.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
Jewlery heists are up, gun use is up, meth is up, murders are up, assaults are up and National are tough on crime….hahahahahahahaha!
They even have cannabis vaping FFS.
And yet our police minister still has a job.
And your lot were tough on crime and gangs ?
Disagree that the gang patches ain’t working because if don’t you live in Maori communities than you haven’t got a clue what you’re talking about!
Maybe you could define Maori Communities? Are you saying there’s a Meth problem on Marae or do you just mean poor communities? As far as i am aware Maori don’t live on reservations.
Well if Tonga and Fiji are over run with meth it follows that NZ will be the next target .We need to triple border work as we are an island nation so we should be able to have better control over whats coming in .We have just sacked 30k public servants who we should have moved to border control instead .The minister of police is next to useless because he is fixated on Viv Beck and her type of bleater rather than the whole nation picture .Yes it might cost a few dollars to triple the border control but it will be way cheaper than allowing Meth to over run the country .The medical and social cost will be way more in the next 5 years as things will go down hill fast in the current poor state of the economy and services .
Oh, I mean if the extreme anti-Chinese racists at the FT say it, it must be true. Do they quote Anne-Marie ‘my kids twisted the air caps off my tyres and I decided it was sl**t-eyed spies’ Brady too?
