OPINION: Labour refuse to do anything about racist drug laws

Related Podcast Martyn Bomber Bradbury: An unprecedented coalition of 25 organisations like the New Zealand Medical Association, the Mental Health Foundation, the Public Health Association, the Maori Law Society, the Drug Foundation, Hapai te Hauora, and JustSpeak have called on drug reform citing health and societal issues while pointing out how racist our drug laws are. The Misuse of Drugs Act 1975 hasn t been significantly updated in 46 years and the level of knowledge we now have with drugs demands reflection. Rewriting the law putting science at its centre would see a focus on rehabilitation and harm minimisation which would make an enormous difference to Māori communities because they bear the brunt of the war on drugs.

OPINION: More Maori men will be found guilty of sexual assault thanks to law change

Related Podcast Martyn Bomber Bradbury: More criticism last week of the Sexual Violence Legislation Bill when the co-President of the Penal Reform League, Lady Heeni Phillips-Williams, warned again that the law changes would see more innocent Maori men found guilty of rape and sexual assault. She wrote a letter to Jacinda Ardern highlighting her concerns adding, I write as the relative of two innocent young males from Ngāpuhi who, falsely accused, sadly went through several months of incarceration on sexual violation charges. It was a traumatising and frightening experience for both males and their whānau - who were later freed without convictions.
