People Against Prisons Aotearoa

A prison abolitionist organisation committed to building a fairer, safer, and more just Aotearoa.
The massive cover-up of allegations made against former Deputy Commissioner Jevon McSkimming gets right at key contradictions in policing itself. The police exist in order to maintain social order - but that social order is fundamentally unjust.

The IPCA report into the McSkimming cover-up is out and it is absolutely damning. To protect people from abuses by cops and hold the organisation to account, the Crown must implement the IPCA report's recommendations and improve the IPCA's statutory powers.

As our press spokesperson @cannibality.bsky.social explained on this Marae panel, the FBI Wellington office must close, because it will further subordinate us to American capitalist imperialism through it advising New Zealand Police to more effectively repress Māori, Pasifika, workers and the left.
