David Seymour can't believe the Taliban is being more helpful to a pregnant Kiwi journalist than her own Government.

Charlotte Bellis has sought asylum in Afghanistan after a failed emergency MIQ bid had her turn to the Taliban for help.

Act Party leader David Seymour told Roman Travers you just can't make this up.

“New Zealanders are now being given asylum from the Taliban because our own government is so mean spirited.”

David Seymour says the Government should've continued with its plan to reopen the border, which is what Bellis had planned around.
