The Landlord Heckler

The Minister of Finance has been heckled by a man who repeatedly shouted “landlords” at her as she hosted a press conference.

Nicola Willis was answering journalists’ questions after a lunch at the Auckland Business Chamber when the man began interrupting her.

Willis was saying “one of the reasons we were elected was to ensure that, when we are investing, it’s going to the right places”.

The heckler called out: “The landlords.”

Somewhat thrown off, Willis continued “and for us, our priorities are …”, and the man interjected with his quip again.

He called out “landlords” two more times before saying “entitled people getting more entitlements”.

Willis tried to answer questions put to her by the media but the man continued heckling her.

“School lunches?

“People in wheelchairs?

“Will the landlords get enough to eat?”

came_apart_at_Kmart,

it would be amusing at least to live in a country where i could heckle a politician right to their face in a regular speaking voice at a presser and be picked up on their microphone, instead of being immediately swarmed by like 5 body men, dragged out of sight, roughed up, charged with discon/resisting/assault, while the media compliantly muffles me and characterizes it as a deranged outburst.

in the states to pull this off, you have to have at least one or two other people filming you doing it with their phones and they have to be able to egress quickly and not be easily recognizable as being “with” you. and frankly, they almost never let us get that close. not to mention, any recorded footage would end up only on alt media unless it was extremely hilarious.

Western “democracy” is such a joke, and this is the country American liberals smugly uphold as a beacon of how perfect liberalism is.
