Pollies: MPs Megan Woods and Mark Mitchell on National's suggestion that gang members should have to cover affiliated tattoos

Published: Oct. 31, 2023, 7:50 p.m.

National's Justice Spokesman is standing by his suggestion of requiring gang members to cover up their gang tattoos with foundation.\xa0

Mark Mitchell says National could potentially ban gang facial tattoos on top of patches, and gang members would have to apply make-up over tattoos, or face arrest.\xa0

Labour's Megan Woods told Mike Hosking that it would be a hard rule to enforce.\xa0

But Mitchell told Hosking that gang members have been charged and prosecuted for breaking a similar rule in Western Australia.\xa0
