Thousands protest NZ COVID vaccine mandate

New Zealand has beefed up security measures at its parliament as thousands gather to protest against COVID-19 vaccine mandates and government lockdowns.

All but two entrances to the parliament building, known as the Beehive, were closed off in the presence of high levels of police and security personnel, as mostly unmasked protesters marched through central Wellington and congregated outside parliament.

While the demonstration was peaceful, many people were seen holding signs and placards - with messages including 'Freedom' and 'Kiwis are not lab rats' - and shouting slogans as they demanded the government roll back compulsory vaccination and lift restrictions.
