Michael Neilson: NZ Herald political reporter on how the controversial Posie Parker Auckland rally unfolded - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

Anti-trans activist Posie Parker was escorted out of New Zealand after a skirmish at her Auckland rally.

A small fight broke out between attendees and counter-protestors as Posie Parker made her way to the front of the crowd, where she was doused with a red liquid and escorted out of Auckland's Albert Park.

Posie Parker has since cancelled her Wellington appearance and left for Auckland Airport on Saturday evening.

NZ Herald political reporter Michael Neilson says several MPs showed up to the counter-protest, including Labour's Shanan Halbert and Greens co-leader Marama Davidson, who was injured after being struck by a motorcycle.
