A group of New Zealand’s original Maori people held a protest demonstration against LGBT in Auckland on Sunday, demanding the government “address the excessive spending on borderline pornography and perversion targeting our innocent Kiwi kids.”
Dozens of Destiny Church’s Man Up and Legacy groups broke through police barricades at Auckland’s Rainbow Parade, performing a haka, a traditional Maori dance, the local English daily New Zealand Herald reported.
However, the police dispersed them without making any arrests.

Earlier, protesters stormed a community center to protest another event billed by Auckland Pride as a “musical, magical adventure exploring the science of the skies” and open to all ages.
The organizers claimed that 50 to 60 protesters forced their way into the facility, with some pushing and intimidating our council staff, volunteers, and community members.
The police said they are investigating the allegations of assault during the incident.

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said it is important to respect people’s right to free speech and peaceful protest, but the Destiny Church protest went “too far.”
The bottom line is that this is a wonderful country that values diversity, he added.
Destiny Church leader Brian Tamaki said in a social media post, “Our radical young people have had enough! Our Man Up men have had enough! Destiny Church has had enough!”
Tamaki said Man Up was forced to step up and take “peaceful” action against the government for failing to “address the excessive spending on borderline pornography and perversion targeting our innocent Kiwi kids.”
