Show Notes

ACT Party leader David Seymour has been quick to respond to the 'abhorrent' new prosecution guidelines set by the Solicitor General.

The new guidelines have told prosecutors to 'think carefully about particular decisions where a person is Māori' - prompting backlash.

Seymour has labelled these guidelines 'disgraceful'.

"If New Zealand is based on anything, it's the simple idea that no matter who you are and how you're born, you get equal rights and a fair shot at life. It is absolutely un-Kiwi."
