  • NZ Supports UNGA Resolution Demanding Israel Withdrawal From Illegal Se

    You’d think there would be nothing controversial about backing a
    resolution demanding that someone who has already been found guilty of
    breaking the law should abide by that law. And indeed, the
    overwhelming proportion of the world community supports that, too.
    Including New Zealand.

    But some people still think that laws are only for “bad guys”, and
    that they, as “official good guys” or something, should be above the
    law.

    David Seymour seems to be one of those who think that demanding that
    someone abide by the law is “controversial”.
