Greens co-leader James Shaw is "shaken" after being injured in a violent attack on his way to Parliament this morning.
Shaw was punched in the face in an apparently unprovoked attack as he walked to work through central Wellington.
A party spokesperson says Shaw was confronted by a man who stepped out, spoke to him and identified him then hit him in the head.
Shaw suffered a black eye in the attack. Thankfully two passers-by came to Shaw's aid.
And there are fears support for the disabled is being quietly cut person by person after the Ministry of Health backed down on sector-wide funding changes.
