Protesters displaced around Wellington as cleanup begins

From Midday Report, 12:10 pm on 3 March 2022

We begin outside parliament, where the area is still cordoned off by the police today. 

Some officers are bandaged, bearing the scars of a battle against people radicalised by disinformation.

Seven were in hospital overnight.

Meanwhile, some of the 89 people who were arrested started appearing in court this morning. 

And the encampment at Auckland Domain / Pukekawa has also been removed.

RNZ reporter Jimmy Ellingham spoke to Māni Dunlop from outside parliament.
