Destiny Church leader Bishop Brian Tamaki says people complaining about yesterday's protest disruptions on Auckland's Southern Motorway, are "angry, self-entitled dickheads"
24 July 2022
All southbound lanes on the motorway were closed as the protesters made their way from the Khyber Pass on-ramp to Market Rd, causing major traffic disruptions.
Reasons for the protest cited in a press release included but were not limited to; the high cost of living, understaffing of hospitals, GPs being overworked, education problems, three-waters legislation, a mental health crisis and under-resourced first responders.
Auckland Central Area Commander Inspector Graeme Anderson says police have begun the process of prosecuting those involved with the protest.
So far they've not arrested anyone over yesterday's Auckland protest.
