Dear New Zealand Police,
What programs and initiatives are you currently undertaking to ensure that
the New Zealand police force is not harbouring people with extremist
views? Given that we have seen police in Germany and the United States
become influenced by these ideologies, along with reports of widespread
“implicit bias” (racism) in your own police force.
Regards,
R. McCarthy
