Hipkins values free speech - until he doesnt
#1
From his presser today in reference to the heckler at Luxon's press conference:

"We have a country where free speech is valued, cherished and encouraged but I don't think we should use that to deliberately drown out the voice of others."

Then minutes later referring to Posey Parkers return:

"I don't think that adds to the debate in any way that's useful, constructive, and I fully support the people who will oppose it who have indicated that they would oppose it with us and express a contrary view," he said.

So which is it Chris? Free speech is OK and shouldn't be drowned out or should be drowned out when you dont agree with what's being said?

A more onto it press core would have jumped on the blatant hypocrisy of his second comment.
