  • 1313 - Politics Thursday: Kieran McAnulty and Mike Butterick talk gang patches, hikoi and haka in Parliament

    Today is the first day of the ban on wearing gang patches in public - but will the new law actually be effective?

    Also, 40,000 people marched on Parliament this week to protest Act's Treaty Principles Bill. Did the Prime Minister Christopher Luxon know what he was getting into when he agreed to support the bill's first reading?

    To answer those questions, Labour MP and housing spokesperson Kieran McAnulty and National's Wairarapa MP Mike Butterick joined Nick Mills for Politics Thursday.

    "It's not what you wear, its what you do." 

    He says he is working with gang members to "stay calm" as the ban is introduced - but expects most gang members will adhere to the rules.
