#BHN New police recruits "barely equipped" | Luxon on Netanyahu | Seymour v 13 year old

The NZ Herald got exclusive access to a survey of senior police where they have raised issues that new recruits are "barely" or "not at all equipped" of policies to make an arrest or lay charges. This raises the question is this government more focused on getting 500 new police officers rather than having those police officers be quality and qualified.Prime Minister Christopher Luxon hits out at Israel over Gaza famine to which Netanyahu responds. This will not, however, hasten the 'Palestinian statehood' decision from our government.Henry Blakeman is a 13-year-old student from Orewa College with a passion for politics. He recently appeared on Dom Harvey's podcast and put some questions to the Deputy Prime Minister, David Seymour, one of which has now set the gold standard for word salad which we'll break down tonight. Sean 'Karen' Plunket released a video this morning where he cries over non-access to Christopher Luxon. He has a written a letter to the PM demanding an answer as to why he hasn't been on the Platform citing that perhaps someone in the PM's "woke millennial members of your media team" might be running interference stopping the invites from getting through. It's bot hilarious and incredibly telling how entitled Karen thinks he is.=================================Come support the work we're doing by becoming a Patron of ⁠⁠#BHN⁠⁠ www.patreon.com/BigHairyNews⁠=================================Merch available at www.BHNShop.nz Like us on Facebookwww.facebook.com/BigHairyNews Follow us on Twitter.@patbrittenden @Chewie_NZFollow us on BlueskyPat @patbrittenden.bsky.socialChewie @chewienz.bsky.socialEmily @iamprettyawesome.bsky.socialMagenta @xkaosmagex.bsky.social
