Controversial pamphlet sparks debate over censorship in Wellington

Posties in Wellington initially refused to deliver pamphlets from the political campaign group Better Wellington, which contained contentious claims about council spending, city-wide speed limits, and the broadcasting of Islamic calls to prayer.

The Postal Workers Union expressed concerns that distributing the pamphlets could harm community relations and contradict NZ Post’s commitment to social responsibility. Despite this, NZ Post management decided to move forward with the distribution, stating that it is not their role to censor the materials they deliver.

The pamphlet’s claims have been met with criticism from local officials, including Wellington City councillor Rebecca Matthews, who clarified that the council’s consideration of broadcasting Islamic calls to prayer was limited to special occasions and not for daily use. Matthews and others argue that the pamphlet was designed to provoke anger and was influenced by Islamophobic sentiment. The council has since asked its staff to clarify the district plan rules related to calls to prayer, with a report expected next month.

  1. NZ post appears to have succumbed to wokeist tendencies ideologies and leanings
    Consideration of broadcasting Islamic calls to prayer was limited to special occasions and not for daily use.
    Once this pig with lipstick on it gets its leg into bed and its ugly snout through the door you will be stuck with it
    Muhammad was a pedophile and Islam is a pedophile movement fronting as a religion
    And magic carpets anyone?
    It is reprobate apostate and an abomination and against all norms of decency
    The reason Islam is being promoted so vigorously around the world is not just as a proxy against the white race but to legitimize and legalize having sex with children who are groomed for that explicit purpose without fear of persecution retribution or repercussions from the law
    Being nurtured and embraced especially amoung politicians
    The world is run on shame and on sexual secrets
    Those who have been sexually compromised are the most easily controlled and held on a leash
    If Wellington accepts this sacrilege affront demonetization and defilement of all things that we cherish and hold sacred then you can rot and revel in your own demise and downfall
    Revelation 13:8 “And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”
    Don’t go there

    • You forgot to include another chapter of religious decree.
      Have you ever read the Talmud?
      The Talmud easily outdoes ANY religious scripture by far, in means of hatered, sexual perversion, anti-christianity, lies and orders to commit crimes against any non-jewish person. especially children.

      • It would be a waste of time reading the Telmud
        The Bible is the most racist book ever written
        Because it is only talking to one group of people
        The House of Israel the ELOHEEM
        And out of concern for others
        Israel the creation
        Jews ain’t Israel
        Jesus said to continue in His Word
        To feed His sheep
        And to worship the Father YAHWAH God not Him
        Anything else is a lie
        Who is ‘him’ at Revelation 13:8?
        Satan the Devil that Old Serpent

  2. Would be good to see what’s actually in this flyer. If its saying rates are horrifically excessive and some of the speed limits are moronically low, then I can but agree 110%.

  3. Gee, isn’t it great that we have such a “caring” government corporation legal fiction called NZ Post supported by- The Postal Workers Union of Aotearoa? (PWUA) to censor for us such harmful mis, dis and mal information such as constructive criticism of another government corporation legal fiction masquerading as Wellington council.
    New Zealand post can just pack its bags and go back to Aotearoa where ever that is.

  4. NZ Post holds over the mail of Targeted Individuals, and photographs the same, and can read mail using air pressure to inflate envelopes while a boroscope reads the mail itself.
    Delayed mail to overseas locations costs $$$ when dealing with time constraints (ie contract deadlines, legal parameters overseas, etc.) They hold-back courier express overseas mail where the return address lists a ‘person of interest’.
    Unfortunately, the remaining courier companies do the same. Just leaves one wondering how much the compromised courier services are getting paid to violate the Right to Privacy and the Human & Civil rights of those Targeted Individuals’..
