    Wellington Central MP Tamatha Paul is again dismissing criticism of her views on policing

    Wellington Central MP Tamatha Paul is again dismissing criticism of her views on policing


    Billboards depicting Paul and Green Party co-leader Chloe Swarbrick have popped up in Wellington and Auckland -- with the tagline "Defund the Police, vote Green".

    The Sensible Sentencing Trust is behind the ads, and claims the Greens have expressed copyright concerns about their use of official candidate photos.

    Paul has posted a video on social media, suggesting many agree with her criticism.

    She says she doesn't care what some people think, because people are with her - and they can't get rid of her.
