There's renewed calls to evaluate Destiny Church's charitable status and tax treatment after their actions last weekend.

Followers of Destiny Church  - the religious movement spearheaded by Hannah and Brian Tamaki - stormed an Auckland library on Saturday to protest a drag king reading to children.

Followers of the church then disrupted Auckland's rainbow parade - actions Auckland's mayor calls thuggery.

Prime Minister Chris Luxon says they intimidated public officials - and the Government will be investigating their status, and tax treatment in due course.

ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says Destiny Church acted disgracefully, and a review needs to take place.
