Kerre McIvor: What we can be sure of with Parliament protests - Kerre Woodham Mornings Podcast

The protest in front of Parliament continues today despite the storm, despite the sprinklers being turned on, despite music from the most hated list being blasted at the men, women and children who have gathered together over the past few days to protest all sorts of things.
There was some interesting reading in the media over the weekend, journos went down and spoke to the people who make up the protest and found a disparate group. 
Some were men and women who were jobless as a result of the vaccination mandate, a mandate they feel is desperately unfair. Others were so far down the rabbit hole it seems impossible that they'll ever come back. 
Most were in favour of peaceful protests, a couple used vile and violent rhetoric. And some of the typical renter protester who turned up to protest over anything, just add their flag and their banner and their placard to whatever protest is going.
The only thing we can be sure of is that we don't know when the protest will end and that Trevor Mallard has handled the situation badly very badly.
I can understand being affronted that a ragtag group of malcontents has kept on your front lawn. It must be very difficult for a government used to basking and adulation and public approval to have very real evidence that not everybody sees them as Flash Gordon's Saviours of the Universe. 
Mallard really does need to leave operational matters, i.e., getting rid of the protesters to the Police.
