    "content": "There is another issue in this Bill which I believe is also unconstitutional and very dangerous, especially to us politicians. If you look at Clause 6(3) it says: “A police officer may without a warrant, arrest and prefer charges against any person”. I believe that is in the Constitution. If I can read Clause 6(3)(c) it says “…is committing a breach of the peace or the police officer reasonably suspects is likely to commit a breach of the peace”. If you give the police this powers, we know how police behave in this country. This is ground for abuse. We cannot allow police to come and legislate on our issues."
