Woman trespassed from New World Otaki disputes supermarket’s version of events

New World news

The saga has been the topic of online debate in recent days.

The woman at the centre of a trespass incident at New World Otaki has disputed the supermarket’s account of the event.

On 30 December last year she was trespassed from the supermarket for wearing a t-shirt with the words ‘Men aren’t women, even if you squint’ printed on it.

According to reports circulating online, the action was taken when a transgender member of staff took offence at the t-shirt.

In a subsequent Facebook post the supermarket said the woman was trespassed because, ‘she had been making targeted and offensive comments to team members over a period of time and this had resulted in some of our team members feeling uncomfortable and unsafe in their workplace.’

Legacy media outlet thepost.co.nz repeated the store’s claims, saying the trespass was not solely due to the t-shirt but because of her, ‘ongoing targeted and offensive conduct in the store over time.’

The Post also claimed the woman ‘was not physically removed from the store, but asked to leave after an inappropriate interaction, and was then verbally trespassed.’

However those claims have been rubbished by the woman – and she has received backing from a witness.

Her version was posted online today by women’s rights campaigner Ani O’Brien, who provided a detailed summary of the incident on Twitter (X).

The woman told O’Brien it all started when she went to the counter to buy a Lotto ticket.

Instead of handing them over the staff member threw the tickets at her.

In response she tossed the cash down on the counter.

A verbal exchange started in which the staff member accused her of throwing the money at him/her, to which the woman replied, ‘there was no need to throw the tickets at me either.’

‘It’s because you’re wearing an offensive t-shirt.’

‘Not if you’re based in reality.’

According to O’Brien’s tweet:

At this point the staff member became angry and began to shout ‘Don’t say it! Don’t say it! I’ll have you banned. You’re being abusive.’

She replied ‘Are you on some sort of power trip because I haven’t been abusive.’ She was taken aback and did not raise her voice despite the staff member shouting at her.

The staff member’s loudness drew the attention of the store manager at a time when the shop was busy.

The woman also denied claims she had targeted or made offensive comments to staff before:

‘she has never made derogatory comments to any staff members and notes that these allegations only arose after she questioned the manager’s handling of the incident. They are after the fact additions to the matter and she considers them entirely false.’

Release of personal details

A further concern for the woman was that her personal details began circulating online immediately after she engaged in written correspondence with store owner Matt Mullins. A trans rights group had also doxxed her.

Witness corroboration

O’Brien was later contacted by a person who witnessed events at the store. The witness said the woman was polite and never raised her voice, but the manager was ‘very firm’, and the trans person was ‘agitated like he couldn’t wait for it to happen.’

The witness later wrote to New World to complain about the store’s treatment of the woman.

Use of physical force

The woman also disputed claims by the supermarket and The Post that she had only been verbally trespassed, and that she had not been physically removed from the store.

According to O’Brien:

The manager approached and immediately began pushing her (hands firmly in her back). He is much larger than her and did not ask or instruct her leave before he began pushing. As he pushed he said ‘You have to leave the store for abusing my staff. You have to leave.’

The [trans] staff member continued to shout and scream.

She attempted to tell the manager she had said and done nothing abusive and asked for him to hear her account of what happened. He refused and pushed her out of the store.

At this point she was very upset and experiencing heart palpitations and pain. She shouted back into the store ‘you’ll never be a f****** woman’ and told the manager that the staff member was a ‘f****** crybaby’.

The incident has created a storm online with calls for shoppers to boycott New World and for Foodstuffs to immediately release CCTV footage.

  1. so strange how a t shirt can cause such controversy, if one is comfortable with who they are why take offense? As for the owner Matt Mullins a lesson in customer service for both you are your staff is required. To the PLice you also need a lesson in what constitutes assault, you CANNOT touch another person simple.
    boycott boycott boycott, this tranny crap cannot continue. Mainstream media you wonder why you have lost readers its because you are a bunch of liars and push these bs narratives.
    matt and the tranny apologise if you don’t want to lose more customers.
    there was never any issue with trannys until labour created these divisions with their RSE ideologies which as we all know was designed to separate NZers – divide and conquer. A MAN CAN NEVER EVER BE A WOMAN EVEN IF YOU SQUINT

    • “…if one is comfortable with who they are why take offense?”

      Because they’re NOT comfortable with who they are, Esther. Because there isn’t enough lipstick and silicone in the world to change biological reality, even THEY know it. Because they’re perpetually offended by absolutely everything, it’s their default setting. They hang around all day with all that pent up frustration and rage spring-loaded, ready to snap the second their delusional, hormone-addled brains hear something they perceive as any kind of ideological opposition. That’s when the ugliness comes out, and I’m NOT talking about the 5 o clock shadow…

      The mainstream media are soulless parasites who will always uphold our new religion at all costs, and Mr Mullins is clearly a Lilly livered coward who doesn’t want to be burned at the stake as a heretic. Can you blame the guy? ONE of these clown-haired wackos on your premises all day must be bad enough, imagine a hundred of them outside the store protesting. Aiy curumba 🤦🏼

      This is why mental illness needs to be treated, not affirmed.

  4. The WEF / WHO / NWO goal here is to remove the MALE from the equation in all spheres of ‘Globalism’.
    The ‘White Male’ is especially slated for extinction, so some in the ‘White male’ category want to change their sex to avoid an ‘Extinction-Level Event’ via genocide / mass murder of the ‘White Male’.
    However they try and disguise themselves, the DNA does NOT change with a sex change / trans operation(s).
    Even if the schlong is removed, the mitochondrial does not…
    Why remove the ‘White Male’ from the equation of WEF-inspired Globalism?
    Because the ‘White Male’ has in most nations a higher IQ. A higher IQ means that the person can oftentimes see the lies, deceptions, and Zionist-controlled propaganda and call it out.
    The J***** / Zionist-led implications of ‘Globalism’ and the ‘J3w World Order’ will seek to remove those who are the most intelligent in a GENERAL POPULATION as they pose a threat in recognising the ‘Greater Plan for Greater Israel’ by removing the ‘White Male’ that is considered to be Goyim via the deceptive plan known as ‘J** World order Globalism’…!
    Gaza is a perfect example of Zionist Global Policies.
    Gaza and the West Bank today, tomorrow Eastern Europe (which explains the Russo-Ukraine War) then becoming Khazaria, and finally Western Europe and the annihilation of Catholic South America and parts of Hoodoo Africa, AFTER robbing their resources.
    In the meantime, boycott Foodstuffs, and let’s see if Israel owns any stock in the same, or if Foodstuffs is Zionist-controlled.
    If so, then Boycott!!! I hope that Ms. Squinter sues the shit out of the perpetrators who have violated her Himan and Civil Rights at self & public expressionism.
    Oh, I forgot- to express oneself nowadays is …HATE SPEECH!!!!
    & if you don’t think so, just ask Posey Parker and the do-nothing cops who did nothing both with Posey Parker and the New World incident.

  5. Ani O’Bien’s post has now been viewed by over 90,000 people yet Mainstream Media still refuse to report it. Probably because, as we’ve shown, they have a bias that supports trans views over the rights of biological women.

    This story is important from a number of perspectives such as:
    – Under the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990 the trespassed Woman has “freedom of expression” which was breached.
    – It’s also relevant from a Human Resource Management perspective. What policies should New World Otaki Management have followed to de-escalate the problem and avoid the backlash that is now ensuing? They are literally losing customers.
    – What actions justify Trespass at New World? I’d like to know just in case I go in with a t-shirt that says “A ZX81 is not a VIC-20, even if you squint”.
