ACT Local candidates opposing managing emissions at local level, NZ banning Israeli MPs from visiting country, changes to proposed anti-stalking laws w/ the ACT Party’s Simon Court: 16 June, 2025

The ACT Party has recently announced that candidates standing in local elections, if elected, will oppose attempts to mitigate emissions at a local level.

ACT Local Government spokesperson, Cameron Luxton, says council’s should “focus on what they can control,” and not “costly symbolic declarations”.

For our weekly catchup with the ACT Party’s Simon Court, News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to him about this move.
We also discussed the government’s sanctions on Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.

New Zealand has joined countries such as the UK, Australia, Canada, and Norway, in banning Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich over allegedly “inciting extremist violence" against Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, and “undermin[ing] peace” for a two-state solution.

Finally, we discussed changes being made to the proposed anti-stalking laws.

But first, we discussed ACT candidates opposing attempts to mitigate emissions at a local level.

Terrorism Suppression Bill submissions w/ Geoff McLay: November 15, 2019

Parliamentary submissions on the Terrorism Suppression (Control Orders) Bill were open recently, from the 6th to the 10th of November. The New Zealand Law Society presented its submission to Parliament’s Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Select Committee yesterday, highlighting a number of concerns about the Bill's substance, as well as the urgency with which it has proceeded. 

The Bill was introduced last month by Justice Minister Andrew Little to impose restrictions on New Zealanders suspected of terrorism-related activity overseas attempting to return home. This came shortly after Prime Minister Jacinda Arden warned extremist Mark Taylor (who is currently believed to be detained in Syria) that if he came back to New Zealand he would face “the full force of the law”

Producer Bronwyn Wilde spoke to Geoff McLay of the New Zealand Law Society about their submissions. He began by noting the Bill's blurring of the realms of criminal and civil law.

Arthur Taylor on Prisoner Voting Rights: November 26th, 2019

A few days ago Justice Minister Andrew Little announced plans to change the law on prisoner voting rights in time for the 2020 election, to allow prisoners serving sentences of three years or under to vote. 

This comes after a landmark decision by the Supreme Court in 2018 in Taylor v Attorney-General, where Arthur Taylor, a high profile prisoner, sued the Attorney General, arguing the ban went against prisoner's voting rights under New Zealand’s Bill Of Rights.

The Supreme Court agreed, issuing a declaration saying the law was inconsistent with the Bill of Rights. Parliament has now finally announced they will act to change the law.

Deb Rawson discusses this change to prisoner voting rights with Arthur Taylor, and also with law Professor Edward Willis.
