Question

Why on earth is Labour supporting this police state bullshit?

The article says Labour MPs were concerned about the extent of powers being given to the police, and Charles Chauvel tried to amend the bill so a judicial warrant would be needed.

Amendment was voted down, but Labour went and voted for it anyway. Some opposition.

Kudos to the Greens, and in this case the Maori Party, for taking a stand.
