Deportations & welfare bans: Phil Twyford slams ACT’s radical new immigration plan

A fierce debate is building over the ACT Party’s new immigration policy, with a six-point plan that includes deporting serious offenders regardless of how long they’ve lived in New Zealand, a five-year stand-down on welfare support, and a new enforcement unit targeting overstayers. Labour’s immigration spokesperson Phil Twyford joined #Pacificmornings to share his thoughts. #NZPolitics #NewZealand #Immigration #PacificMornings #nznews About Pacific Mornings and PMN News Pacific Mornings is the flagship morning news show on New Zealand radio station 531pi run by Pacific Media Network (PMN).
