McBLOG: Deregistered – but not defeated


The Supreme Court has supported the decision by the Government to deregister Family First as a charity. This is after the Government appealed an earlier decision (2020) by the Court of Appeal in favour of Family First retaining its charitable status. There have been four court cases over the last decade attempting to resolve this issue. The reasoning behind the Supreme Court overruling the decision of the Court of Appeal, and the justification for deregistering Family First, should concern anyone who values free speech and traditional / conservative views around family & marriage.

Overwhelmed and disturbed by NZ Supreme Court’s ruling
