    A protest against Covid-19 vaccines and restrictions is causing massive disruption in Wellington's CBD

    A protest against Covid-19 vaccines and restrictions is causing massive disruption in Wellington's CBD


    The group of about one-thousand people are marching near Civic Square.

    A (Newstalk ZB) reporter on the scene says motorbikes driving around the marchers are revving their engines and blocking off roads.

    Nick James says there was no traffic management or Police officers in sight.

    He says there are frustrated drivers tooting at people - and not in support - while people on the road stop and stare at the chaotic mess.

    Meanwhile in Auckland, protestors are also marching on Aotea Square.

    Destiny Church leader Brian Tamaki has been in custody at Mount Eden Prison since Monday, after allegedly organising protests in lockdown.
