The Freedom Village on the grounds of the New Zealand Parliament is no more: for now at least.
Tensions had been rising between the police and the protesters for the last few days; no doubt brought to a head by the return of the government after their summer recess. It is rumored that Jacinda Ardern had given the police commissioner until Sunday to remove the protesters.
Events leading up to this moment included many instances of ever increasing police brutality against peaceful protesters. One of these instances included breaking open a car door, dragging out a man sleeping next to his pregnant wife, punching him into unconsciousness and leaving him in the gutter.
There were many instances of women being violently attacked. I have a video of one woman being beaten in the face with a police riot shield. Others were knocked to the ground and repeatedly punched by big burly policemen. This was when most people had enough, myself included: the sight of women being treated as little more than garbage and left crying in pain and agony was too much.
By early to mid afternoon, police presence had increased dramatically. In addition to the yellow-jacketed police that we’re so familiar with there were hundreds of black clad riot police. In all there were many hundreds, even thousands of police and, to be honest, I’d be very surprised if they were all New Zealand police. Many are wondering if Ardern hadn’t called in reinforcements from overseas.
Initially the conflict started in the streets outside parliament, many of the protesters were drawn from parliament grounds to hold the line. The police from behind massive riot shields and with huge amounts of pepper spray managed to advance steadily as the protesters were forced to withdraw and wash out their eyes with milk.
By mid afternoon the police launched a gas attack – I’m not sure if it was tear gas or a massive amount of pepper spray – on the parliament grounds. Here, while most were out holding the line in the street, the women and children were left in what was thought to be relative safety, and so this was a gas attack on mainly women and children.
As the afternoon wore on, police managed to breach the perimeter of the parliament grounds. Again, from behind riot shields and using massive amounts of pepper spray, they steadily advanced, beating many protesters on the way. The police kicked over a generator as they advanced, this started a fire that spread rapidly as the hay that had been spread on the lawns started to burn, then to nearby tents. Soon gas bottles started to explode and trees started to burn.
The fire engines were unable to bypass the concrete bollards that the police had installed and initially were unable to control the fire.
This is the day that the once beautiful and proud parliamentary grounds looked like a war zone with a pall of black smoke over the parliamentary buildings.
The police advanced, the protesters withdrew bit by bit while throwing anything that they could find at the police. The anger was palpable. You have to remember that many of these protesters had lost everything due to Arderns Covid restrictions, lockdowns, closed borders, mandates and other ridiculous measures. People had lost their jobs, businesses, homes and their loved ones, they had nowhere else to go; here they had found comradeship, a place to be with like minded people where they would be looked after and fed.
All that the people wanted was for the Ardern government to listen and talk to them but this was not and was never going to be forthcoming. Ardern instead stated that these protesters were driven by false information, only information that came from her mouth was valid and true.
Freedom village may be gone for at least now but I don’t think that this is over. As I write there is another convoy from Auckland and another from the South Island approaching Wellington. Ardern completely underestimated her own people. Kiwis are a tough, resourceful bunch. They know how to live off the land and endure hardship. Maybe this is just the beginning.
For the last few years, New Zealand has endured the virtue signaling, false smiling puppet of the World Economic Forum and United Nations that Ardern is. Now however the Kiwis and the world can see her for the tyrant that she really is. Now there is no doubt as to the evil that we’re really fighting against.
There was never any real intention to end the Covid tyranny. It was just a stepping stone in the slow insidious process of establishing totalitarian control over our lives. Make no mistake: New Zealand, Australia and Canada are just prototypes for the coming tyranny and you’ve seen nothing yet. Scenes such as those I’ve witnessed today, if we lose this fight, will soon be very routine.
Don’t forget: if the Commonwealth falls to this tyranny, so too will Britain, Europe and maybe the US. Don’t forget: Boris Johnson’s governments still hasn’t revoked the coronavirus acts that enabled this type of tyranny in Britain and I very much doubt that there is any real intention of doing so.
As for the people of New Zealand: I’ve never seen such anger, I’m very sure that they will regroup to fight this tyranny. Now it isn’t just a case of wanting to remove Covid mandates or even Ardern’s government. Now, the rapidly awakening people of New Zealand don’t want a government at all, they want an entirely new system and they’re willing to fight to get it
Maybe Jacinda Ardern really should have taken the time to talk to the people.

Ed: I am adding the text of this email I received from our NZ Correspondent after they’d sent in their report:
“Hi Viv
Even the mainstream media here have admitted that the police used rubber bullets on the protesters, even firing some in the direction of children:
“Covid 19 Wellington protest: Police fire rubber bullets at mob; protesters smash university campus; PM blasts occupiers ‘desecrating’ Parliament”
NZ Correspondent
I haven’t embedded the link as usual but left it in ‘as is’. Clicking on that link takes you to the article – only, the propaganda masters running the editorial offices of the NZ Herald have changed both the title of the article and of the URL. Now it now reads that the police used ‘sponge bullets’. Note that the original link, as emailed by our NZ Correspondent, goes to the NZ article, no problem. That title, that article must therefore have said ‘rubber bullets’, not ‘sponge bullets’
These people are shameless.
These people are the same who want us to believe every word they write about Ukraine and Russia. These are the same people who deny us access to Russian media, to ‘protect us from misinformation’.
We do indeed live in evil times, times which our political leaders and their helpers in the MSM have created.
Take care, all of you!

Who would have thought this would happen in New Zealand?
Very graphic and some shocking images here, images that nobody ever thought that they would see in a country like New Zealand.

Here is some very graphic footage and analysis of yesterday’s events at the New Zealand parliament, far more shocking than anything that I could write.

Apologies for being off subject, but I have just been watching Nigel interveiwing a member of a Commons committee that has issued a scathing or withering report on Green Zero matters.
He/they say that neither the government or the opposition has the least idea what the cost of Zero measures will have on the economy, nor on the cost to the British public. and it is pointed out this is even less evident due to the “game changer almost like 9/11 of the Ukraine catastrophe”
Nigel suggested that fracking in the North West should go ahead and the chap agreed provided it could be done safely.
Nigel also suggested coal being opened up for steel production, but there didn`t appear to be an answer on that one.
and North Sea Oil or gas didn`t get a mention.
Sorrry I didn`t get the name of the man Nigel interviewed, but he was adamant that the Ukraine was a Game Changer, with the obvious provision that the whole subject of our own power provision strategy should be re-assessed.
Roger see tomorrow Thurs. I.D. – a petition to restart fracking – Rees Mogg wants it – Kwarteng doesn’t.
At the time known as ‘The Anarchy’ when Stephen and Matilda fought for the throne. Their armies rampaged across the Country leaving devastation in their wake’. It was said that ‘God and his Angels slept’! The current state of the World would indicate that ‘They’ are back in sleeping mode again! Perhaps its time we made our voices heard in humble supplication for them to re-awaken and help us to save ourselves from perdition!
The incidences of barbarism that is being meted out by those whose wicked intent is beyond forgiveness make it obvious that the evil serpent is once again globally extant.
Yes Frederica. I said this morning (Thursday), to a non believer, us humans are the only species that deliberately wage war on our own species. Other species drive the weaker members out but do not deliberately commit mass murder.
He had to agree. So I said ‘I wonder why that is’. He did not have an answer.
So I suggested it was because We had eaten of the tree of knowledge !!
Sponge bullets? Yor avin a larf. Oh, made of aerobar chocolate style rubber you say? A special batch – right. Lesson will be learnt by protesters.
Not my area of expertise but . . that should be quickly sorted by holding up some of the ‘trophies’ recovered by the recipients of these pathetic and hardly worth firing, car wash items. Anyone got one?
“Don’t forget: Boris Johnson’s governments still hasn’t revoked the coronavirus acts that enabled this type of tyranny in Britain and I very much doubt that there is any real intention of doing so.”
Not only do they have no real intention of doing so but today the Peacock Petition Committee announced that having received over 100,000 petitions to have the CV Act repealed they would not EVEN DEBATE the matter.
I too received this email. This is the exact text:-
The Petitions Committee decided not to debate the petition you signed – “Referendum in the United Kingdom to abolish the Coronavirus Act.”
The Petitions Committee has decided not to schedule a debate on this petition.
The Committee recognised the support that this petition has received. However, now the Government has removed all domestic restrictions in England relating to covid-19, and set out plans for expiring the remaining temporary provisions of the Coronavirus Act 2019, the request of this petition has been largely overtaken by events.
You can read the Government’s plans for expiring the remaining temporary provisions of the Coronavirus Act 2019 in the Government’s strategy for living with covid-19, which was published on 21 February 2022: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-response-living-with-covid-19/covid-19-response-living-with-covid-19

Clearly they all believe. absolutely, that they can ignore us openly and with total impunity now that they have secured any future action that they decide to take under the all encompassing Coronavirus Act.
I don’t think it is quite that bad Frederica. It is going to expire and will be allowed to expire except for a few bits the government wish to keep and which ‘will be debated in parliament’.
Well, not 100% satisfactory either but my overall impression is that Boris and co have had a bit of a shaking up and are now listening a little to the back benches and the committees etc.
After all, eventually we think, there will be elections.
Oh it’s not going away. They are giving a false sense of hope, biding their time, whilst manoeuvring to overturn 1000 years of history; the paramount rights of the individual will be made subservient to ‘the public good’. So, um, who decides what is the pubic good? Mandatory jabs to save our neighbours or save the NHS? It is writing a lever of tyranny into law.
Just a few thoughts:-
When Heath, bribed by the Charlemagne Prize, sold us into the E.E.C., he betrayed the Commonwealth. Look at what has happened to parts of it now.
He also betrayed the then 7 countries of EFTA. Some of those countries (e.g.Sweden) have held onto more liberties than us during the Covid Scamdemic.
No knowing, is there, just how history will unfold.
In 1066, those ‘Normans’ who conquered England were actually Northmen or Norsemen, i.e. Vikings – they had been Frenchified by settling in Normandy.
Now the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, would do well to foster links with Norway and Sweden for Energy at the very least.
Oz has plenty of Uranium. We did get a trade deal with them. Their food is much healthier than E.U.’s too. Though if we stop covering U.K. with wind farms and solar panels and housing for immigrants we could grow more healthy food ourselves.
Heath was not bribed, or at least that was not the main reason. He was threatened with exposure as a kiddie fiddler. That’s why he always had that haunted look. Most people have something they would prefer kept secret. This is how the true powers in the shadows manipulate their puppets. Heath’s case was detailed by Alex Thompson of UK Column, during, I think, his Day 2 testimony to Reiner Fuellmich’s Grand Jury hearings, but possibly another time. His name is on the RAINS list along with quite a few well known names that would certainly surprise you.
Phil. It wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. That was then!
Now of course we are all Woke and genders must be fluid and openly fiddled !!
Mark Drakeford has tweeted a picture of himself on the way to Brussels to “to meet key international partners to discuss the response to the brutal invasion of Ukraine.”. Why? Discuss what? Defence is not a devolved competance. The posturing, self-important, self-aggrandising twat spending public money pointlessly.
He must think of himself as a Welsh Chieftain, fiercely defying those brutal English. A bit like BoJo thinking of himself as Churchill defying Hitler!
PB- are you getting mixed up with that actual Scottish Chieftain, Nicola Sturgeon?
More money Mr Barnet. Right now!
Aye Hen, needed due to the rain and snow that is the fault of the English. Aye, just like every other problem in North Britain.
Flyer, your article is profoundly moving and distressing. I followed the Freedom Convoy of truckers in Canada on Fox News, Rebel News and so on. It developed from excited crowds lining the routes cheering on the truckers on their long drive to Ottawa hoping that their 2 years of harsh lockdowns would come to an end, to watching the children playing on the bouncy castles and the adults dancing in the streets every evening at the most peaceful demo ever- for many it was their first experience of joy for a long, long time, as they waited fruitlessly for Trudeau to arrange a meeting to hear their calls for a return to the lives they had before the lockdowns and mandates. The brutal assaults on those peaceful people by thugggish police when Trudeau clicked his fingers was sickening. Clearly the protesters in Australia, NZ and Canada are the wrong sort of protesters. It’s no coincidence that the same treatment is meted out to peaceful people just wanting to make their voices heard is it. How many of our MPs condemned what is happening in G7 and Commonwealth countries? A scant 3 I think. Not a peep of condemnation from Billy Bunter or other countries’ leaders. Perhaps they are watching with interest and learning how far they can push their people too.

Selfish and cowardly unemployed idiots get what they deserve.
These are a vocal minority trying to subvert society. 99.9% of the population has no interest in their foolishness so long as it doesn’t impinge on them (by boosting the pandemic for example).
I applaud the police action. Not before time
Bollox as usual Harry.
Dont feed the HarryAgain Troll
My gawd Harry A are YOU still cowering in terror of the DREADED VIRUS?
How did you conduct the poll that tells you 99.9% of the population agrees with you? And which population would that be anyway?
Pauline……….the population of voices in his own head probably. Still, he provides a bit of light relief if nothing else.
And Domestos kills 99% of household germs, or so admen used to say. Maybe they are unemployed because their government has stolen their money and closed there businesses for holding an opinion. And they are hardly cowardly standing up to the stormtroops. And tell me what do they deserve for standing up for their inalienable rights? Every time I read your comments, Harry, I start to believe in parallel universes. Do you pick your tired old slurs off the approved list or are you just lazy to make up new ones?
Orwell’s 1984 or Huxley’s Brave New World? That used to be an enjoyable debate with friends in a pub. But it is not either/or. Both are coming to pass as we are in turn subject to project(s) fear and given our soma cubes. The thuggery of Australian, Canadian and New Zealand police has been shocking. The way democrat cities in America have become lawless zones of woke indifference to a Hobbesian reality no less shocking. And the utterly craven toeing of the goverment line by our media worse than ever. Our homelands – home – are being turned into hotels by the mass importation of different cultures, some actually hositle to our way of life, and so a collective sense of history and identity is eroded. Apathy and anomie will render us not so much governed as farmed as our elites set up courses, for the chosen few, in citizen husbandry. The future is grim indeed.

Yes, the war of all againt all
I have no words but would contribute to anybody able to help remove these people to the prisons they deserve.
Lisa- How does one get around the ‘Canada manoeuvre’ – govmt redirecting your spons to a more worthy cause?
And just think when Churchill warned against socialism and said they would need some sort of ‘gestapo’ to enforce it, he was ridiculed . It seems odd how all these ‘riot police’ in most of the world all have very similar uniforms and ‘rank tabs.I wonder though in New Zealand how all those people who voted for Ardern at the last election feel now. Still could never happen here could it!
“all those people who voted for Ardern at the last election”
As in America, and once you begin to look, many other countries, perhaps they didn’t. Just today I saw that at their last election Costa Rica had unexpectedly voted large for their WEF Young Global Leader president. Sound familiar?
Farage told CPAC to look to the future and strengthen their voting system with ID and paper ballots, not keep harping on about a stolen election. He is, publicly anyway, sceptical about it being stolen; he obviously hasn’t taken the trouble to look, which is disappointing for a pragmatist. But the point is that if the corruption was widely exposed, as opposed to niches, the Democrats would be totally gone. Mind you they are doing a good job of killing themselves off anyway.
Norman, it very did until Partygate, and rapidly falling opinion poll ratings and the the possible threat of parties of the Right, jolted Johnson into action, and the present International situation in which we have found ourselves in has also come to his rescue.
I’ve been doing a bit of research after reading this article and have found these three short videos that confirm the police violence in Wellington on Thursday. Shocking stuff indeed.

The woman hit with the shield, should have stayed down, the other protesters could then call up an ambulance with the problems that entails. Concussion at the very least.
Could it happen in Britain? It already has. Lest we forget. Man misidentified in a mini, shot in traffic through the back window by the police and his passenger pistol whipped. Newspaper seller whacked by a policeman in the guts with a steel baton who later died from injuries. Cressida (bulletproof) Dick gave the go ahead to shoot an unarmed electrician seven times through the head without a warning – see court transcripts and billboards at the time.
And elsewhere. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young – four dead in Ohio. Neck restraint anybody?
How do we know they are British? Thankfully for them, the un-named, unidentified police / storm troopers, with little or no insignia at all up until recently have a get out clause. If their mates who investigate, rat out the generally ‘impeccable record’ transgressor, the defence is always -(shaky voice) I fearred for my liffe yourronner. Judge:- I can see you are a six foot two fourteen and a half stone man, with moustache, clothed in plate armour, steel shod boots and helmet, armed appropriately for war, and prepared to take on the peaceful unarmed public going about its lawful business. We can all see your life was in danger – case dismissed.
Whatever demotion did the Great Dick get? I feel sorry for the ‘marksman who carried out the murder. Just like the train passengers who watched the silent proceedings, he will probably remember the order all his days.
Maybe I go on about this more than I should. Problem is I grew up when the police, policed. Not sitting comfy in their offices watching thousands of surveillance cameras. Not waving through automatic speeding fines for doing 31 mph set at an arbitrary pre war 30 mph (Buckinghamshire). Look at the way they dress. Not everyone is a black knives matter protester. OK rant over for now.
Biscotte, you can rant all you like. I feel better for it.
Yes Lisa, and we’ve had a few history lessons today as well!
Biscotte. Just think when steam transport began it needed a man walking in front with a red flag to control it’s speed.
Well a horse and cart won’t need that. I mean, steam transport means burning fossil fuel, coal !!
PB- Steam transport? You are older than you think (smiles).
Or are you advocating a red flag walked in front for those leccy cars that creep up on you silently?
And where is the leccy coming from, and what will replace all that ‘milk the motorist’ tax that will disappear?
Actually Biscotte I find modern I.C. cars creep up silently! Well I am 77yrs old and being a bit deaf is often very annoying.
Sometimes it is because even people I wish to converse with, neither enunciate clearly, nor even form their opinions into articulate sentences!
On the other hand I have been known to just say ‘I can’t hear you and I don’t wish to hear you’!
What does annoy me is how often I see people walking into the road without even looking.
Back in the good old days when I had a Morris Minor Traveller everyone could hear me coming without having to look.
I could make it burp when passing those I did not like! (Including Coppers.) It was fun.
It’s very noticeable Flyer how the police block cameras from seeing their brutality. They’re evil.
