Speculation is growing that police are staging ‘false flag’ incidents in an effort to justify heavy-handed actions and sway public opinion against the Parliament Protest.
An officer was photographed this morning, prior to the ‘white car incident’ holding what appeared to be screwdriver type implement. Quite apart from the object’s potential lethality, protesters are asking why the officer was carrying it, noting that similar objects were used by officers to smash the window of the white car which drove dangerously near a line of police this morning. The fact the officer was carrying such an out-of-place, and highly dangerous, object has many believing the white car incident was pre-planned and staged.

Claims also that a police plant wearing an earpiece appear to be corroborated by pictures of the man and police.

The man was later handed over to police by protesters. Update: DTNZ has since learned the man’s earpiece is in fact a hearing aid.
I’ve got him on video. pic.twitter.com/zTRahYHknr

Earlier, police accused protesters of throwing faecal matter at officers. However, in a press release this evening, the Combined Parliament Protest group denied any connection with the alleged perpetrator:
The individual who sprayed faecal matter at Police on Monday morning was unknown to protestors. He intentionally hid behind a protestor as he sprayed the police, wore a ski mask and fled immediately. Protest organisers have asked Police for pictures from surveillance footage to help us ascertain if the person is still amongst the protest. Police denied the request. We are now worried he may have returned to the site to perpetrate further violent acts.
Calm appears to have been restored this evening, for now. Reports of numbers swelling again, together with the arrival of army veterans in support of the protest, has raised spirits.
The army are starting to turn up in support of @5to1pvpast they have been mandated. There’s some big lads. Disgusted with jacinda and nz police after this morning. We got this, numbers are growing again.

We’ve had and influx of veterans of all ages, wearing their service medals. How proud they make us feel.

WEF tactics, same thing happening in canada but the truckers are sorting out these lowlife paid instigators. Jaxxi’s cousins thugs are not on your side people.
Pure fantasy on your part!
it would be good to identify the fireworks guy. He might have done this without thinking as about 1% are doing, stupid but not planned. Equally he could have been placed there to do this. We will not know until we find out who he is and what his background is.
He is wearing a top with stamped text on it. The word Love is on top of fear and I would read this as love over fear.
Dude he has a police ear piece in his left ear. Absolutely a police piglet causing trouble. Just more lowlife tactics from New Zealand police.
The car incident I dont think was a plant….just an unwise and poorly thought out action by an individual – it was initially spun by the media though….it was pretty evident the guy made no attempt to drive into the police line
Headline in USA: Covid infections plummet 90% from U.S. pandemic high, states lift mask mandates.
…and?
What a time to be alive. May God have mercy on all of us.
BTW just saw an interview with Mr Winston Peters on AM show ???? loved it. Salute to him for standing up…we need men like him, fearless and bold …. As a leader. Thank you Mr Peters.
He sold us out last time, he will do it again.
It’s amazing how these so called journalists have prepared questions that they must ask. It’s all about mudslunging. Any one that questions the govt narrative, gets asked inappropriate off the topic questions. Talk about having an agenda!
Winston took her to the cleaners!
He did nothing of the sort.
The guy with the fireworks absolute police pig causing trouble. NZ police sink to a new low.
You’re a fantasist are you not?
Yeah I mean who in their right mind has a bag full of fireworks at that hour of the morning?
Stuck out like a sore thumb.
