Will mega prisons grow gang numbers? Q+A asks the Minister | Q+A 2024 

Exactly what they want behind the scenes police state is where they gearing into believe or not

100% when they abuse the bill of rights it's game over for our freedom

@@Duckz558 with no police?

@@markreynolds1112 Politico?? I believe so globalist agenda Coalitions way of defunding the police

⁠@@markreynolds1112 Exactly no police but security agencies POLITICO why they not funding the police if you notice??

Re Police now making a difference: They did in our shuburb, they raided the local gang pad, made Multiple arrests and the neighbourhood is the quietest it’s Been for years. They also rounded up the local Low life’s who were stealing cars. That’s our reality

Labor blamed national for 6 years... Did you say the same, when they used this for their second term?

Ikr they say “I can’t wave a magic wand and fix the problem immediately” well you’re no good then we’ll find someone with a solution bcuz you are repeating your same mistakes

Teachers, nurses, doctors and then police

@@growtocycle6992 police nurses thts it

​@@growtocycle6992no. Police nurses then teachers. And pay cuts for terrible teachers.

Nope ftp

tis coalition govt won’t hear of it we’re getting setup for something big & evil big time

It’s unsettling how incompetent, stupid and dishonest Mitchell is, not fit or competent to be making such important decisions. All police should go to Australia if they can, it’s pretty obvious not valued here. Priority is making the rich richer .Funny how in another 2-3 years rents will not have gone down and crime will be increasing. It’s no wonder crime so bad if he was in the police for 14 years hardly imagine he could catch a cold in winter.

@@robvanderveen3411 ozy has a good system going deport crims to nz and import police to oz

@@robvanderveen3411 In Aussie police answered 911 call was a burglary police were actually in a car pursuit when told to stand down for no reason the police officer who was a Sargent blew the whistle on his superior

Yep he really did. So stupid its embarrassing.

@@Kiwiskirt It’s like telling someone they should be pleased about their boss getting a pay rise when they didn’t get one because their boss will probably be flush enough to buy them a few flat whites over the course of the fiscal year 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Yep, the almost $1 billion a year being gifted to landlords was actually for the police. We should ask him in a year or so how much accommodation costs have been reduced.

Watch BHN tomorrow night. They'll smash this interview to bits

Don't tell us how to suck eggs. Of course greater consequences for bad action acts as a deterrent. It's common sense! Maybe there is no evidence because it's never been done 🙄.

@@growtocycle6992 Is that you Mark Mitchell? There's no evidence because it doesn't work. However, there's plenty of evidence showing that it drives people to join gangs - which is exactly what the journalist pointed out. There's a reason why we follow data and not morons and their "common sense".

@@growtocycle6992 is that you Mark Mitchell? There's no evidence because it doesn't work. There *is* evidence that it leads to gang recruitment - which was pointed out in the interview.

​@@growtocycle6992 show me where in history that's actually worked.

Yes....that's usually the case. I already see a contrast in the comments. Buyers remorse for many

@@_.Marz._ shouldn't be. Just because gangs are bad doesn't mean the bill of rights go out the window there is laws on the books enforce them don't make up bs new laws that violate human rights and give the govt. wild over reach

@@X6r61 NZ's are willingly getting bent-0ver from all directions and non-Māori are at the forefront...handing the rest of our freedoms over to the govt for the taking! YES I said it! Govts ultimate goal is the land. Let's create as many laws as possible to put men of a certain demographic, inside the slammer. That way, those particular men won't get in the way when the government come and take it all! They're fast tracking laws and policies to take the land and all it's resources. This is the vicious cycle 🔄 of "the system". Last time, they sent our men to war and coincidentally, many lands were confiscated around those times.

@@X6r61 Well...most non-Māori are the one's selling us off to the highest bidder per their vote anyway, thinking their say counts (govt already has their a g e n d a playbook ready)...they just need your 'vote' to follow through. They want the land, period! Many who are new citizens and NZ's who have a certain superiority-complex want to change our country's "landscape" (outlook)...all the while, literally destroying the land and stripping our rights in the process. This is what the country wanted apparently...

@@onlyLonely534 contraband thrives regardless of economic issues

@@onlyLonely534 It takes 40 seconds to make a new email and a single cell phone to make a new social media account. I don't think a 3 year game of whack-a-mole will do much. Reducing gang numbers means redirecting the kids WELL before they ever get a patch.

All starts at govt level with their foreign mates push nowhere else

Doesn't suit the narrative that's why.

New, 320 already left the country in the last 5 months

You must be a Labour supporter.

@@ShirleyZhang-bt4dj wrong. A reasoned comparison of two interviewees doesn't indicate a political party preference.

​@@ShirleyZhang-bt4dj You must eatDog

Yeah spot on what about you must be labour supporter coz nactnz supporters just force feed the bs they are feed and ask for seconds not realising they voted in the worst govt in nz history

@@ShirleyZhang-bt4dj Will we know who you support by lots of your past posts

he is an egotistic wanker

100%

prison does work, it keeps society safe, living wages equal inflation which equals cost of living crisis ppl need 2 strt adding to society instead of expecting society to magically deliver

@@markreynolds1112 Nope, prisons don't work, they are high cost ($150,000 per prisoner per annum), gang recruiting, and almost 60% of those imprisoned return to prison within 2 years. If putting people in prison is effective how come countries with the highest rates of incarceration generally have the highest crime rates too?

I didn't see anything in the clip that bothered me. To the contrary, they were 1- saving petrol by travelling in low cost vehicles 2- being supportive and respectful people by supporting the family of the deceased 3- they are very open- everyone knows who they are. Most people who commit crimes creep around devastating lives and traumatizing people. You wouldn't know who they were or what they were up to. They can be churchgoers, teachers, neighbours, members of parliament, or anyone. None of the drug dealers I have known of, none of the sex abusers, and none of the wife abusers have been in gangs. The wife beaters seem to be especially good to outsiders, sex abusers can be found in churches and wherever children go, and drug dealers are usually just up or down the road or just around the corner. Tax evaders are in the best parts of town. If I knew that leaders, who were responsible for supporting me, and running the country were out to get me or my mate's or my family, for any reason- I would be very defiant. I would do whatever I could to make things difficult for them. I wish I could start up my own gang. It would be comprised of other grandmothers, nurses, and people who care about their fellow human beings. They would oppose racism, destruction of the environment, cruelty towards workers, anyone benefitting from the sale of cigarettes, anyone who disrespects our ancestors. Alo the greedy, selfish, deceitful, and exploitative people (including almost every member of the Coalition government). All my friends and every member of my family are in this category- my partner, siblings and children. If I had my own gang, I would be very interested to know if I would be arrested whenever we meet up - and whether or not our garments are removed. I am very defiant against a gang of thugs who have lied to get ahead, have amassed a lot of money from the poor over the years, and who gave run amuck...simply because they can. This is how wars start. People join one side or another. Well done Luxon and Co...great negotiator...you and your thugs are creeping around behind the scenes... all those companies, all those rich people, and...

The sources and study is in the report. It's the first time they've been counted, so increase of number is conjecture.

He's not answering the question that's the point , he's dodging with talking points

TV is time limited. Long-winded, fact-dodging politicians need to be ushered along quickly.

Labour also spent a lot of money trying to address pervious National led government's messes -underfunding state housing for example and we are still paying the price of the leaky building debacle that National caused in the 90's.

Not to mention a 3-year world plandemic and a national weather disaster SMH! C'mon Perry, think!

They HAD the money for it, and to pay for kiwi’s dental visits. National chose to spend it giving landlords free interest, while borrowing 15 billion more to pay for it.

All the people sent to Waikeria (pronounced correctly) will all be out again around 2030. We will see what happens after all the advise and relationship building is biffed out.

Why when he spent the last year and a half saying they “speak for kiwi’s”...? Well, for all kiwi’s but cops and everyone who didn’t vote for them

Because there is a backlog of cases in the courts

He made a fool of himself. “They said there’s no clear evidence that increasing-” “So they said there’s no evidence?” “No, I never said there’s no evidence-” “They did. They said, “There is no evidence to prove…”

Please go back to your bridge and stop trying to interact with people. No one likes you being a tosser to everyone. No one likes you period, we had a meeting. ...Unpaid rightwing shill

Tames another little Marxist

What rubbish the guy would dance around any answers he is useless all mouth and no trousers.

Yes they were, are you stupid or trying to rewrite history? There’s clips on this very channel with them taking Labour to task. One at the end of this show. Stop acting americanized with their tribal politics, cause you look stupid trying to lie about something like that when the answer is one click away. Also, if the guy didn’t take 4 minutes and STILL didn’t answer the question, Tame wouldn’t have to be so hard on him.

The reason because Mark wasn't answering the basic questions he was asked.

@@allanlange2263 jack never lets them finish their point before moving on to the next one just countering for the sake of appeasing the woke audience. Has ever given swarbrick or any left wing party half the trouble??

Prison is a training camp for criminal activities

No, you’re just using american-styled bully tactics to discredit him for asking basic questions

nutter.

Why listen to proven, on air lies? "No evidence"?

More like he’s thinking “Why can’t you just answer the fucken question and stop wasting my time!” Or even “Why’s this asshole lying to me when he can see I have the quotes from the police right here?”

Because he won't answer questions.

Because Jack is a left wing woke nerd.

@@dd2451 Simple he won't answer the questions or doesn't know the answers

Because Mitchell is so dumb unbelievable dumb

Why do you think he is rude?

Listen to debate 1987 between the PM and leaders of the opposition. Crime section.

They have done nothing in 6 months and crime is far worse.

@jasoncarey1944 in six months, not Acton on social issues and police reactive in most cases. Police need be there to make robbery had. What about burglars!

Hopefully with the media given the boot Jack is gone.

He asks politicians from both sides hard questions, it's just that the current government ministers struggle to answer.
