New Zealand indigenous family under house arrest for 11 months for not taking COVID jab Tactic shows government willing to ignore basic human rights

New Zealand has long boasted that its relationship with its indigenous population is one of the more enlightened. Not anymore. The brutal imposition of house arrest on residents of the Pacific island of Nukunonu because they have not agreed to be vaccinated has revealed that the New Zealand government is willing to ignore basic citizen rights.

A letter late last year from the Office of Council of Nukunonu to the unvaccinated family revealed that extreme pressure was put on them to comply. It set deadlines and saying they are “sad” the family has not complied. It said: “You will remain on house arrest with your wife … and your son … for a further six months until you reconsider your decision. Your daughter … will also be on house arrest starting tonight at 10 pm.”

The family has now been under house arrest for 11 months. Non-complying residents on another atoll, Atafu, were allowed out several weeks ago, but they are not permitted to attend gatherings or meetings. There are no instances of Covid-19 on either atoll.

NZ is a beautiful place with an entrenched totalitarian government. When we visited a decade ago the level of control and the acceptable of that control by the population made us very uneasy.

Even Australians were much more accepting of Government intrusion and control than we were comfortable with as Americans.

“The tall poppy gets shorn” was one of the Aussie aphorisms that spotlighted a cultural difference from the America of the time. Don’t strive to excel or you will be noticed & ground down...

As PM, she led the ongoing 2020- waves of lockdowns, removing most civil rights and virtually banned international travel to and from the island nation.

On June 17th, 2020, PM Adern met with Melinda Gates via teleconference, upon the latter’s request. The outline of the meeting was released under the Official Information Act (OIA).[17]

In the teleconference, Melinda Gates said "the US, and the world, saw New Zealand's response and PM Ardern's leadership as an exemplar," according to official records of the meeting.

This is what socialist bastards, hell bent on dictatorship will do if you don’t follow each and every one of the whims. Castro’s son Justin Trudeau from Canada was a good example and Jacinda Ardern the current ruler (a woman) of New Zealand follows right in his footsteps. If this doesn’t wake you up and tell you what to vote for you deserve what’s in store for you.

Note to Prince Chuck: Why do you care more about Rwandan refugees than indigenous people who are being abused by the government of another Commonwealth nation?

Cat got yer tongue, Chuck?

In 2008, Ardern was elected president of the International Union of Socialist Youth.

Another buck-toothed pinhead. Why the world lets nerds and arrogant idiots run their lives is beyond me. It has to stop. People have to quit letting people like this b**ch have any effect on their lives.

It’s a trend in that part of the world. Finland and Sweden also have young WEF gals as prime ministers

Time for all those responsible for these human rights violations to be be kicked off the island.

No game. Literally put them in the ocean and don’t let them back on.
