The Police Minister is condemning protesters' plans to disrupt major motorways tomorrow.
Toitu Te Tiriti is urging people to protest tomorrow as a demonstration against government action towards Māori and Māori matters.
Police are preparing to deal with planned slow-moving motorcades on major roads in a bid to disrupt morning traffic.
Police Minister Mark Mitchell told Mike Hosking that it's illegal.
He says the right for peaceful protest will always be protected, but it doesn't mean others can trample all over the rights of law-abiding Kiwis.
Labour’s Ginny Andersen said that while she doesn’t agree with the unlawful protest, Māori do have a lot of reasons to be angry right now and have the democratic right to speak freely and protest.
