Dealing with the disloyal

One way in which we Loyalists can deal to the disloyal republicans is the law. I have recently been looking at the 1961 Crimes Act; which I have been told by a bush lawyer friend contains provisions to protect loyalty to the Queen. After looking at www.legislation.govt.nz, i can see that Section eighty-one of this Act tells us that it is illegal for any one of Her Majesty's subjects to:

"bring into hatred or contempt, or to excite disaffection against, Her Majesty, or the Government of New Zealand, or the administration of justice"

Clearly; the republicans & any other haters of the Royal family are doing this. Demanding a banana republic is disloyal to our Queen, & to our heritage & it is against the law. Sadly, I doubt that the current socialist; Labourite government of feminazi Clarke will want to prosecute their friends in the republican movement. However; I will ask my own lawyer next time I talk to him what he thinks the chances are of a private prosecution!!

Ah yes, sedition. An archaic law to protect an archaic political system. Unfortunately for the monarchists, such a prosecution would be unlikely to survive a BORA challenge - and I expect Tim Selwyn's one to fall on exactly those grounds when it makes it back to court.

If you're interested in this law, I have some posts on historical abuses here, and quite a series on the issues it raises here. I should also point out that I can't think of anything more likely to "excite disaffection" against the Queen than prosecuting republicans for their views; does that mean those calling for prosecutions are seditious?

Oh Bill, you're not serious are you?

I doubt you could actually have a civil prosecution under the Crimes Act 1961 anyhow.
