Poto the gift that keeps on giving

Newshub reports:

The public has registered a vote of no confidence in Police Minister Poto Williams as youth crime spirals out of control. 

Most Kiwis think Williams is too soft on crime, the latest Newshub-Reid Research poll has found – but Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is standing by her. 

From mowing through malls to attacks on dairies to storming liquor stores to ransacking retailers, it feels no one is immune to the ram-raid rampage. …

The latest Newshub-Reid Research poll asked: Is the current Police Minister too soft on crime?

More than two-thirds – 68.3 percent – said yes, while just 18.3 percent said no. 

That’s a damning result, but a fair one.

Williams is probably the softest on crime Police Minister New Zealand has had since Phil Connolly.
