Chris Hipkins: Labour leader dismisses anti-LGBTQ protests as 'pathetic'

Labour's leader has labelled anti-LGBTQ protests 'pathetic'. People linked to Destiny Church stormed a children's drag event at a west Auckland library, leading to some 30 people had being barricaded inside.  Later, police intervened when a group disrupted Pride Parade festivities on Ponsonby Road with a haka.   Chris Hipkins says we have free speech in New Zealand, but it's not that. He says that sort of behaviour isn't an exercise in free speech - it's shouting other people down and stopping them from what they're free to do in a democratic country.
