Most of the participants of Nationalโs boot camp experiment have reoffended, proving it is a complete failure.
โChristopher Luxon was warned his boot camps wouldnโt work, but went ahead with them anyway,โ Labour childrenโs spokesperson Willow-Jean Prime said.
โAfter ignoring decades of evidence and countless warnings from experts, he is letting young people, their whฤnau, and communities pay the price.
โChristopher Luxon initially said he didnโt care whether it worked or not. He now needs to own up to the real-life consequences of his gamble with boot camps and take accountability.
โWe need clear answers on why the Government is still pressing ahead with its Bill to enshrine boot camps into law given itโs now obvious that they donโt work. They should scrap it.
โThis failed experiment shows once again how out of touch Christopher Luxon is,โ Willow-Jean Prime said.
