TL;DR: road closures starting from tonight until midday Friday
Is it too late to hope restore passenger rail will somehow cockblock the Tamaki brigade?
I don’t think they’re brave or stupid enough to get in the way of that mob.
Great, I need to driven into WGTN tomorrow morning too.
Do we know what the protests are protesting?
Just out of curiosity I had a look at their site. Ten minutes of my life wasted I’m not getting back. Essentially against everything in Agenda 2030 and the government is corrupt bla bla.
Just ignore, work from home if you can, and move on. Absolutely not worth your time.
There’s the “The Freedoms & Rights Coalition’s (TFRC) ‘Revolution Convoy 2023’”, and the “Pōneke Anti-Fascist Coalition” counter protest. I haven’t linked to anything about them as I felt that’s probably more of a discussion for the politics sublemmy.
Ah thanks, I had assumed something worthwhile, I forgot about these kinds of protests.
@Dave @happy_piwakawaka trying to ensure we all remember what epic fuckwits those people are.
Stuff have some info up now: https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/133013952/who-are-the-new-parliament-protesters-descending-on-wellington
As soon as I read Brian Tamaki I think I knew all I needed to know. Donations are drying up so he needed something new to oppose.
I think there’s multiple parties standing in this election affiliated with the Tamaki’s… and then protests on top of that. Talk about grift!
I thought there was one party formed from several smaller ones, headed by the Tamakis? Freedoms NZ.
Ah yeah, you’re right… I thought there were others, but I guess I’m wrong.
