Islamophobic pamphlets distributed in letterboxes is 'gross' - mayor

Posties in the capital are refusing to deliver pamphlets containing misinformation about Islamic calls to prayer. The pamphlets, by Better Wellington, claim the council wants the city's mosques to broadcast the Islamic call to prayer through loud speakers -- believed to be a reference to recent District Plan changes which allow mosques to use their speakers on special occasions. It comes as other households in Wellington are being leafletted by cards from the Stop Co-Governance group urging people to "fight back" against "radical Maori taking over our country." Wellington mayor Tory Whanau speaks to Charlotte.
