A police officer’s behaviour “fell below the standards” expected after he appeared to punch a man in the head during a Rugby League World Cup final gathering in Auckland.
Thousands of league fans gathered in the early hours of Sunday morning to cheer on Samoa in the Rugby League World Cup final in the United Kingdom.
Footage from the party at the Ōtara fan zone, which was posted to social media, shows officers lifting a man off the ground, with one holding him in a headlock as they walk him away.
As police continue to haul him away, one officer appears to throw a punch at the man. Bystanders can be heard saying, “Don’t do that”, while another yells, “What the f**k”.
The man is then taken away by several police officers.
One person who witnessed the incident told Newshub police asked the man to leave, so he decided to walk in a different direction.
“They then decided to manhandle him because he refused to. He literally did nothing but want to celebrate with the many hundreds that attended,” they said.
“[Police] were on a power trip towards this individual. It’s disgusting.”
This of course is mild compared with what they did at Freedom Village on peaceful protestors.

The cops’ come uppance is coming. Your readers may be interested to know that the cops have a $20 MILLION Public Liability Insurance Policy with CHUBB Insurance which contains all kinds of definitions of “Personal Injury,” see below 3.8Occurrence means: an event including continuous or repeated exposure to conditions which results in Personal Injury or Property Damage neither expected nor intended from the standpoint of the Insured. All Occurrences of a series consequent on or attributable to one source or original cause shall be deemed one Occurrence. 3.9 Personal Injury means: a) bodily injury death, illness, disability, shock, fright, mental anguish or mental injury; b) false arrest, detention, false imprisonment, malicious prosecution or humiliation; c) the publication or utterance of libel slander or other defamatory or derogatory material, or a publication or utterance in violation of any individual’s right of privacy except: 1) when the first such publication or utterance was made prior to the commencement of this Policy; or 2) when any such publication or utterance is made in the course of or is related to advertising, broadcasting or telecasting activities conducted by or on behalf of the Insured; d) wrongful entry or eviction or other invasion of the right of private occupancy; e) assault and battery not committed by or at the direction of the Insured unless committed for the purpose of preventing or eliminating danger to persons or property. ” The above is taken directly from a CHUBB Insurance policy wording which can be found here http://www.protecsure.co.nz/docs/liability/public-products-liability-wording.pdf if anyone cares to check it out. This is not necessarily the exact same wording as the cops’ policy, but I have no doubt that a lot of it is industry standard. Now here’s an interesting thing, one guy in his OIA reply said that the cops DO have the Chubb Public Liability insurance while another guy in another OIA reply said that the cops DO NOT have Public Liability Insurance. Interesting eh? I am working on that. I also learned that from 2010-2022, the cops paid out an eye watering $6,330,467.54 to 185 complainants. This is an average of $575,497.00 per annum and an average pay out of $34,218.74 per claimant. NOW, this begs the following question! WHERE DID THE MONEY COME FROM? The guy who said the cops DO NOT have PL Insurance said , and I quote, “Police Legal Services are the budget holder for claims made against Police. New Zealand Police do not have Public or Employers Liability Insurance, so all compensation and settlement payments are paid by New Zealand Police
directly”
Now the other guy in answer to this part of my OIA
“1) Does NZ Police carry Public Liability Insurance? If “yes” I require the following :-
(a) The name(s) of the insurer(s).
(b) The limit of liability.
(c) A copy of the full policy document(s) said, and I quote “For the first part of your request, please refer to the table below.
Policy Insurer Limit
Public Liability Chubb Insurance New
Zealand Limited $20m”
Is someone telling “porkies?” Something certainly doesn’t add up. Watch this space

Great information.
With so many of the older, less reactive officers now gone either through being mandated out or being fed to the teeth with all the woke bs there will not be any improvement on the horizon.
I have to wonder if the Jim Jones juice has not affected their conduct more recently, as from what I’ve read about personality changes in the jabbed this does not bode well for police forces or society in general.
Now and in the future people will go out of their way to avoid the police and will never help them with any inquiries.

I think the youngsters who are ram raiding dairies, jewellers etc. need a clip round the ear from the police. They did when I was a kid so we behaved ourselves. None of them were really hurt, only their mana.

Yes, but they know the likelihood of them being apprehended is small — unless they are stupid enough to cause grevious bodily harm to someone — and even if they are the judge will let them go.
