Tamatha Paul: Wellington Central MP says beat police only target homeless people

from Wellington Mornings with Nick Mills · host Newstalk ZB

Wellington Central MP and Green Party police spokesperson Tamatha Paul is under fire for comments she made about beat cops at a 'radical alternative to policing event' in Christchurch.  She claimed "Wellington people do not want to see police officers everywhere" and all beat police do is "wait for homeless people to leave their spot, pack up their stuff and throw it in the bin".  The MP joined Nick Mills to discuss her comments, as well as react to new proposed electorate boundaries which will see changes to her Wellington Central seat.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
