Tim Dower: What's going on with the Northland border?

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · Dec 6, 2021 · 1m

I think we're overdue a bit of honesty and openness on what's going on with the Auckland border.

A bit of transparency.

At the moment, we still have a hard border and if you've been through it, you'll have seen it's obviously a police operation.

The actual checking as you go into and out of the contaminated zone could be done by a civilian with a little wand, I've also encountered uniformed soldiers.

But it's clear the police are running things, and taking the opportunity to pull a few cars and trucks over for regular road safety checks.

All very much in the interests of anyone on the roads…
