David Seymour: Act Party leader says New Zealand can't afford to be apart from the rest of the free world over Ukraine

The Act Party says New Zealand is out of step with its traditional allies, and should show a united front. The Government is stepping up support to Ukraine with an extra $5 million to bolster the supply of fuel, rations and medical kits. The Defence Force is offering just over a thousand body armour plates, and around 500 each of helmets and camouflage vests. Act leader David Seymour told Kate Hawkesby New Zealand can't afford to be apart from the rest of the free world, which is being challenged in a Cold War-esque way. He says it's brutal and awful, and we need to start confronting it. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
