In reply to michelle. For fucks sake. Being an MP dosnt absolve anyone of critisms in fact it increases the amount of critisms you'll receive. You're just throwing shade on police VIP protection because you're implying that they can't prevent an assassination attempt. Are you muppets even listening to yourselves?

In reply to Samwise. I really need you to state what David Seymore said that would have been so offensive it is an crimanl hate speech case. So please, educate me because this is tuning into another Russia did moment.

David Seymour’ comments on Ghahraman are inexcusable. I hope the voters of Epsom do to him as voters did for Fraser Anning at the last election.

He is being dangerously provocative.

David Seymour may not be calling for an assassination on Golriz Gharahman, but he’s doing everything but. Its “wink eink nudge nudge” stuff

If anything happens to her, responsibility lies, in part, on his sloping forehead

Andrew, throwing an egg or milkshake at a fascist is pretty damned harmless

The christchurch shooter used far more lethal weaponry

If its a choice between a bullet or a chook’s egg to the head, i know which one i’d pick

Get your fucking priorities straight. The left aren’t killing anyone. But you righties are racking up one hell of a body count

This is disgusting and we need to find these mongrels and sort them now we can’t have this nonsense in our country. Our coalition government needs to give these death threats the same amount of attention as they did to the chch attack on our Muslims. We cannot and should not bring people into our country if we cannot ensure them and their whanau are safe. The last government let so many people come here many don’t even speak english all to feed businesses with cheap labour. Now are the business people standing up for these people, no they aren’t cause all they care about is themselves and money. Are they actively helping to stop this nasty white supremacist disease that permeates our country. Some how i doubt it cause it is all about them not us and yet we are the ones that poor immigration practises impact on the most. No wonder we live in a divided country with people being treating like chattels.

It’s true that Golriz Ghahraman is not the first politician to receive death threats and death threat are abhorrent in all cases.

However, that said, it is only a couple of months since Green Party Co-Leader James Shaw was physically assaulted by a conspiracy theorist. Also the Greens are targeted by conspiracy theorists than any other party by a long shot. They are also bearing the brunt of Taliban 1080 opponents even though all the parties in Parliament support its use. Eugenie Sage is another Green MP who needs round the clock protection. Potentially even more than Golriz as the people targeting her have an actual history of violence including an armed hijacking of a helicopter. Sue Bradford was a Green MP and Helen Clark, while receiving death threats, had round the clock security

Agree that the Green Party have lost their way of late but if white supremacists threaten death and are enabled by an extreme neo-liberal MP then right now they require our absolute and unequivocal support and solidarity.
