- There are 190 more people on the National Gang List and 80 fewer police officers on the streets than in November 2023 when Labour was in government.
- Police Minister Mark Mitchell says the National-led government is seeing success and there are many police officers in training to come through, but there is "a lot more to do".
- Former police officer Lance Burdett says the gang patch ban will have the opposite of the intended effect, forcing criminals underground.

Well yes, that's literally the way Conservative governments operate, you're catagorised as one of them if you're in the club as a hard working ,upstanding citizen and you're a grifter if not. They have no time for people they see as "grifters", which is most people.
The politics of envy sees many who suffer under conservatives vote for them in the hope they too can have somone to look down upon when they are "successful "...any day now.
