Wonders. Would Mr Harvey have refused to swear in a female who had assaulted another - Male or female?

So, Bob Harvey wants to be a secondary Court and add a bit more to the sentence this man long ago served. Perhaps we should all do the same for anyone who has ever made a mistake: shun them and discriminate against them in perpetuity. That will make for a much better, violence-free society huh?

Bob Harvey is a lost in the past feminist, labour geek. The DVA has been used in such cynical ways at one stage we got down to refusing farmers fertilizer licences because of any dva proceeding - not even a conviction. As for the Waitakere court when it gets over its obligation to behave in a corrupt manner, which I have personally witnessed, the people of Waitakere City might be allowed to live a normal life again. Bob Harvey will go the same way this labour government is going, it just needs some decent bloke to stand up and send him on his way out the door, and some of the best candidates would be men I have seen in that Domestic Violence Court, who simply didn’t deserve to be there.

I hope the part about having the most police in the unit and the worst record is is taken as I meant it - a dig.

Waitakere is ruthless to men.

Hadi Akbari, how do we use this information? Is there a website explaining who this group is?

The way my husband’s ex wife behaves makes me want to do more than hit her.
I must be a major threat to society now too

I suggest Mr Harvey should stop being so self righteous and remember what is written: Do not judge others unless you want to be judged by the same measure.

Even though Waitakare “has the most police in it’s DV unit in the country and the worst National record. Even though it has the best feminists and male socialists working along side him, Or maybe because of the above.

Mr Davis is right this is petty politics at is worst.
