Fantastic response thank you

Excellent response. Trenchant and unflinching. This how we fight back. Well done.

Yes - and good word 'trenchant' :-)

Good grief. It took two years to produce this report and they still haven't figured out the problem is the police themselves hate women who stand up for women's rights!

If Kellie-Jay Keen goes back, I want to come from America and bring a bunch of my veteran friends who aren't afraid to stand up and protect women who get beat up by male transgenders and their allies.

Feel free to visit New Zealand anytime, with or without Kellie-Jay Keen's presence here :-)

Just seen a Māori group protest (see Brian Tamaki NZ) against a Drag Queen Event for Kids 👍🏻 If they can do that, they could help protect KJK if/when she returns to NZ.

I guess that would be between her and them to liaise about. It was notable that when another Let Women Speak rally was held in Auckland six months later, without Kellie-Jay Keen present, to finally have the one which had to be abandoned in March, the police presence at that was considerably more noticeable and effective.

As I was leaving Albert park having made 111 calls, I saw a queue of about 8 police officers as stated standing near Princes St, with one greeting and hugging one of the protesters, so my suspicion is that these officers were allowed to self select for participation, thus their inertia, endorsed from on high, was also voluntary.

Uniformed police should not enact personal displays like that!

Thank you. Dereliction of duty by the Police.

Hi Katrina

Excellent piece.

Given the importance of this issue can I have permission to re-post on my substack the whole of your report? I wouldn't normally ask this.
