The top 10 reasons why IPCA let cops investigating Todd Barclay off the hook
Here are the top 10 reasons why the Independent Police Conduct Authority just let the cops investigating Todd Barclay off the hook...
10: John Key threatens Human Rights Commission funding
9: OPINION: Political roundup: Questions raised by Alfred Ngaro’s speech
8: Privacy Commissioner short of funds
7: Children’s Commissioner report highlights continued underfunding of CYF
5: Police conduct authority funding tight
4: Lack of funding could affect Independent Police Conduct Authority – report
3: Police watchdog IPCA skips investigations due to financial pressures
2: Fears police investigating themselves will deter complainants
1: And the number one reason why our defanged watch dog allowed the cops off the hook into their deeply flawed and embarrassing ‘investigation’ into Todd Barclay is because the powerful have one rule for them and another rule for the rest of us.
Meanwhile Todd Barclay continues to receive an income for a job he’s barely appearing at, National continue to pass legislation with his one vote, and all that seems to matter is what Metiria Turie confessed to a quarter of a century ago.
That the political double standards and real abuses of power occurring here can be eclipsed by the snarling viciousness at a female politician admitting to breaking the law because of poverty 24 year ago says a lot about us as a juvenile culture.
The police and its investigating body the IPCA are tools of this National government. One of many state agencies being used by this rotten government to advance its own odious interests. I doubt there will be any constructive outcome from the Barclay affair prior to the election.
Todd Barclay’s recent behaviour not showing up for work, that’s fraud in my book! And on a much greater scale than any beneficiary could possibly commit.
Barclay has abused his position, defrauding his constituents, failing to give them the representation they are entitled to, while being paid to do so.
He needs to be sacked and forced to pay back every dollar he’s deceptively taken during the period of his absence.
Everything stated in Martyn’s article speaks volumes about why this disgraceful, bullying, corrupt-to-the core government must be removed.
Who do you replace the government with though Mary?
Bruce Bayliss, Dave.
Fred totally gives him the gumboots up on that one.
Actually, reason #1 just goes by the name Glenda
Would somebody please tell me if the police covering up complaints authority has ever found the nz police guilty of anything????
