Greenpeace NZ been critisized for its tactics recently over boarding coal ship?
NZ police have critisized greenpeaces actions into protesting against a coal ship in lyttleton harbour as the protest had depleted police in Christchurch.
My first question is why so many police were needed at a greenpeace protest. Greenpeace were protesting against carbon emissions from coal and that the usage of coal should be phased out because of global impacting of carbon emissions. 4 greenpeace people were arrested during the protest.
From the publics point of view the police should not have used so many resources in one place, that was a bit of a over kill as its greenpeace for starters and the likelihood of extreme conflict going to be minimal 30 police needed, sounds as if a lot went just for a gander.
A lady rang 111 to get assistance for a grievience bodily harm but there was no one to respond to her call due to lack of police that were at the protest 30 cops.

The police were there to keep the peace.
Since there was the possibility of trouble when there are groups of people with opposing opinions close together.
Greenpeace had no authority to board the ship for any reason,the ships crew had legal authority to "repel borders" by any means necessary.
Greenpeace personnel have endangered themselves and others with some of their tactics around ships.
As for whose to blame that there was no police to respond for other calls of assistance-GREENPEACE.
