The fact that Davidson basically made out that gender and race had something to do with it is in itself disgusting and disrespectful.
Well she is an alien wo-man! 🤔
Remember it's all cis white men's fault...
davidson said on tv for all to air about white men she is racist she should have been sacked
She is also on record as saying that “CIS White males” are responsible globally for domestic violence when in fact here in NZ Māori are the top percentile. I just don’t understand why she is not being prosecuted for such false and racist comments. She just spreads hate wherever she goes. Says a lot for those that have elected the greens.
She can say whatever hateful things she wants but when we counter them on channels like these censor and delete. Pointless.
I keep getting my factual comments deleted by the moderator on this channel that doesn’t seem to appreciate truth. I’ll try again.
She also accused white cis males of being responsible for domestic violence. Statistics below show she is both uninformed and a racist.
division?
“58% of Māori women, 34% of European/other women, 32% of Pacific women, and 11.5% of Asian women experience IPV”. Source - equal justice project nz.
I’m surprised she didn’t blame Israel 🇮🇱.
Yeah or ukraine
Nice
I'd have to agree with her there!
...oy vey rrubs hands 👏
Yeah i thought that she would truth be told.
Best comment !! Better then mine 😂
She was a horrible racist Im not sorry to see her go.
She supported the Houthi's in December which wasn't great for targeting ships. What racist things has she done? I haven't been paying attention. Antisemitism? Anti white people?

Who was she racist against?
@@Confucius_76jews and whites.
Everyone that financially succeeded @@Confucius_76
She better be charged as any of us would be. Whoever else tried to cover it up needs prosecuting too.
bingo,...its just being whitewashed,....and its been the norm for decades.....gov getting away with murder.
its business as usual.
It really depends if the business (the victim) wishes to make and continue with a complaint to Police.
I agree...we'll wait and see!
She should face more legal attention and scrutiny than a private person. They are not too special
@@damolux3388and if the business has been paid a 50k bribe to drop it all. I’ve heard rumours.
That the leader of the Greens making excuses about it illuminates how absolutely unfit they are to be representative politicians
she resigned because she was caught....
She probably denied it at first until she saw the CCTV footage. Narcissists are always blaming other's for their crimes unless there is proof. Now she will self destruct, seen it all before.
... and many more charges to come!
You only resign if you are guilty . Remember that folks
She hasn't said she's not guilty. She has effectively confessed.
She as good as admitted it in her "apology", if you can call it that.
i disagree. it may be inferred. I have resigned and have not been guilty. i am sure others have also. leaving a toxic environment can be its own reward. i also can assume she is guilty, but do NOT Know!
@@allanvincent4450 In her own words:
“It is clear to me that my mental health is being badly affected by the stresses relating to my work. This has led me to act in ways that are completely out of character. I am not trying to excuse my actions, but I do want to explain them.”
What, if not the allegations of shoplifting, is she referring to when she says "my actions"?
No inference is needed here, unless you are suggesting there is some other matter she is speaking to?
😂 shes on camera filling her bag
Accidently shoplifting in a fit of absent mindedness is acting "out of character".
Shoplifting at least 3 times (allegedly) is not acting out of character. It is totally IN character.
She didn’t do the decent thing. She jumped before she got pushed.
You are 100% correct she was TOLD to resign or you will becTOLD to go.
You are 100% correct she was TOLD to resign or you will becTOLD to go.
She jumped so her crew didn't have to force her maybe?, try thinking a bit more before being so confident in yourself
💯 and then got her partners in crime to blame muh patriarchy 😂 such a sad day for anyone who supports these losers like dwarf joe 🤣 this type of behaviour exemplifies the fish is rotten at the head, socialists pay attention 🤡
And only because she was caught anyway. The dishonourable MO for green Gaga land.
This has nothing to do with white privilege, racism, colonialism or anything else.
It's about choices Golriz made.
correct. She is a disgusting animal.
Now find out how long Chloe knew and kept it quiet
Over a month, typical of Chloe……. More like the thief she was protecting than she realises
@@CelestialInsights Chloe is the worst of the lot by miles.
She doesn't deserve sympathy. She was in a well paid, privileged position, and she stood on a pedestal preaching publicly on many matters of morality. If she was having "mental health issues", she should have stepped down to deal with them. Shop lifting shows a character flaw, and she only resigned because she was caught.
So true.
Can she be deported, like a 501?
Yes a her country , they cut off yr hand for stealing , , but I good ol new Zealand 🇳🇿 its a slap over the wrist with a wet bus ticket 🎟
I wish
Unfortunately New Zealand granted her refugee status. Her family probably was 'fleeing violence' for stealing back in Iran too, too bad good ol NZ is so cucked they basically give people get out of jail free cards from facing real consequences overseas.
I've had plenty of bad mental health days. Family grievances, stress while working, stress in my personal life, not once have I thought "To cope and make myself feel better I'll shoplift something". The 'mental health" excuse used by Golriz and Kiri was is disgusting and a spit in the face to those who truly suffer mental health problems. She's a liar and a criminal, end of.
Just because YOU haven't doesn't mean other people cope the same, what a shallow and selfish thing to say.
@@TheDwarfishjoe ooooh someones not coping 😂
Kiri popping pills and drinking then driving what a pos
@@TheDwarfishjoe ok sure, but it is absurd and absolutely ridiculous for someone to blame theft on "mental health". No one on planet earth steals things as a coping mechanism
@@user-nd1hx6pb7i the silver lining is that Kiri didn't kill anyone. If she had, there'd be hell to pay
Investigate all of the Greens MPs
Investigate all politicians... I agree yes.
Investigate just one party ??
Na doesn't seem right
@@dwee3005follow the rule of law. Which means follow evidence and credible allegations as the police are doing in this case. Without politicians interfering which is as it should be in a country where politics and the legal system are separate.
If she had mental health issues, why choose her as an MP, and why keep her in parliament?
Why do they always have to use the victim card when they get caught doing something illegal!!! It's so irritating! Take responsibility like a grown up and stop using the race and gender card as a cop out!
This victim mentality needs to end!
An interesting insight into the irony (hypocrisy) of her character - being attracted to (very?) expensive clothes while claiming to relate to the poor, the needy, the vulnerable and the poverty stricken.
Greens are full of of hypocrisy. Even her overseas holiday is questionable, since she and her holier than thou colleagues exhort us not to fly. How did she get to her destination?
Are not all politicians like that? I have no time for them as before the elections they are sucking up to everyone and when they win their true nature comes out e.g. oversized ego's, looking after their rich mates and making short term decisions ( National on Auckland transport ).
Oh the shame to enter a shop now! Someone will have to teach her how to online shop, oh wait maybe now she can't afford it 🤔 government job, good money free clothes, no job no money that's ok still got plenty of clothes 😆
Bit ironic isn't it?
She's had a long history of wilful deception going back to her CV and pretending that she was something other than a volunteer intern helping someone who had incited genocide. Her stealing was well practised, and not a surprise to some who knew her. Now, let James Shaw release his academic record and explain how he had entered a master's program which required a BA with honours when he had dropped out of Victoria. And who was the MP who was with her while shoplifting, and who returned only some of the goods to Scotties?
Wow you know! I think she will be a wonderful Minister of Social Development, helping beneficiaries to get the jobs they want!
How do we know another MP was with her by the way? Did Scotties say? Maybe that other MP alerted Scotties to the attempted stealing? But you're saying not everything is returned? I honestly thought it was attempted shoplift rather than successfully stolen
@@Tom_McMurtry it was reported that she refused to open her bag to shop security. But items were anonymously returned several hours later. Scotties have reportedly said that not all the items were returned. The Greens have explicitly stated that no other Green MP was involved in the stealing. But their statement was left open to interpretation due vagueness.
@@williamahn7093 there may not be enough law lecturer's positions still available to accommodate all the corrupt politicians who have left parliament.
She’s always seemed like an entitled opportunist.
You should never ‘kick’ a person you climb over when climbing the ladder to success. When things go wrong and you have to descend down that ladder, those you kicked on the way up will deliver a ‘kick plus interest’. This lady and her fellow Pius Greens are getting that payback.
Correct she and her elk have kicked and abused many has they have climbed their ladders - she is an entitled self opinionated person who believes she is above the law... and now is using mental health as an excuse and insulting all those who genuinely struggle with mental health issues and many of those are just on benefits without the advantage of her enormous tax payer funded salary.
Given that controversy is the norm rather than the exception for the Greens, and driven by their ideology of "equity", it's more of a dog pile where they are all kicking each other at the same time.
Hear hear!
Resigned from The greens? She still might start her new political party Hamas NZ
She could. They have billions while their people have nothing.
Your comment says more about you than anything else.
@@KarlFullerNZ yes it says that Golriz is a vicious racist Jew hater and she supports Hamas Nazis
Ho ho Jo and that is not Father Christmas..but a very nervous uttering.
In Iran they chop hands off. I wonder if she is going back to her homeland. She is only using the mental thing because she got caught.
Davidson on the news last night "I have lost a friend and a colleague". Yes you have lost a colleague but how have you lost a friend? Has she died?
Partners in crime. 50 Shades of Green.
To be fair davidson ain't the sharpest chisel in the toolbox.
Clown davidson
No metal illness when she jumped on a plane for a holiday, greens can do no better
James Shaw claiming that "Green MPs are expected to hold a high standard of public behavior" as he stands next to avowed racist and misandrist Marama Davidson, as they proceed to say that Golriz being a thief is everyone elses' fault.
Their obvious hypocrisy and absolute lunacy would be hilarious if it weren't for the fact people vote them into parliament.
that's a laugh davidson biggest racist out there
The same high standard he displayed when he ‘cooked’ his qualifications on the green website?
@@jasperhorace7147 Or Chloe Swarbrick chanting terrorist slogans? Or Kerekere's bullying? Or Metiria Turei's history of benefit fraud? Or Shaw (again) pushing for funding of a private school in clear violation of his own party's policy? Or Davidson (again) being kicked out of parliament for calling ACT MPs racists? Or Swarbrick (again) calling a minster a liar in parliament?
High standards indeed, these f**ing people.
@@judithclark4184 And we should all remember she refused to apologize for it, so she isn't even ashamed of what a full blown racist she is.
Shaw's so called high standards don't apply to his own deception about his incomplete qualifications.
Nah sorry mental health doesn’t get to be the scapegoat for dumb & criminal behaviour
Responsibility is being kept legally accountable for our action. A resignation means nothing. Being an elected member of parliament, in charge for creating laws and policies for us to follow is not "just a job from which I can just resign". It's not a joke, it's not about notoriety it's about the core trust building required from someone in a position of immense power.
🤍God has her sorted💨🤘🏼👹🖤
Should have been sacked but her resigning is probably to save her lucrative pension and bonuses.
yes a full forensic audit is in order, everything and everyone, her handlers will be in panic mode rn
That trust has been lost ......or heavily tarnished forever
She’s an international human rights lawyer and steals… allegedly 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
not allegedly. It's on video😮
No, she once helped defend a man who was convicted of genocide in Rwanda, when she was about 12. Then she got on the Green list and has been a grifter ever since
Bad behaviour of Green Party politicians, they have double standard.
I have no doubt that this wasn't just the start of her shoplifting. Id be willing to bet it has been happening for years. Police should be searching her home and asking for proof of purchase... which isn't difficult with todays technology ... of her wardrobe collection.
We as a country opened our arms to her and her family.- Her actions are utterly disgusting.
I think some type of forensic audit is in urgent need, bank accounts, emails, her residence, the whole lot. This person was last year making laws for people born here, she is not. I think the SIS should be looking into what's going on its a matter of state security.
Agreed. Totally shameful
Her friends should be checking their wardrobes and jewelry boxes! Anything that's not nailed down. Totally agree, search her home, she's looks to be a prolific thief. Less about mental health and more about the frill of getting away with it.
the far left full of excuses
The greens are just making themselves look worse and worse
But people love voting for them 🙄
@@brent8335 they're even bigger fools than the politicians in that party
But look at who their * followers* are all sandel wearers with beards. ( yep even the woman)
@@briansatchell2319 also a stupid number of students and such who (falsely) believe the greens are all about the earth and environment, they feel like its a good vote away from the big 2, alternative edgy almost. sad, people should be made to read a parties policies before they can vote I reckon it would change things up somewhat
@@brent8335 Because there are people just like them void of any personal responsibility blinded by virtue singling and outrage at the current "thing"
Thank you Sean for giving us a voice.
...except for us 'cookers'✌️😉
Who is 'us' ?
Reads like us and them.
@@Double.S.02 those who know, and those without a clue! 🤔
@@Double.S.02or it could be just us.
As you said in the opening Sean she had no choice so whether it was 'decent' or not is debatable.She was backed into a corner ,had she not been caught would her conscience make her resign from her $180.000 job?
The way that she swiftly stole with the ease of a professional makes me think that she is a seasoned shoplifter, I have worked in retail for over 10 years so I recognise the fact. Not being mean, just honest.
She get used to it,stealing
Be different for the rest of us.
Sean, I'll never abuse you, because you are one of the few who actually tell the real truth, and shine a light on what's really going on. Keep up the great work.
She had to take her large wardrobe collection to Chloe's in the middle of the night before the cops come and have a look.
Yes, she’s certainly had plenty of time to stash the evidence elsewhere.
From the river to the sea
All our fashion will be free.
Eh Chloe.
Stop the excuses and take accountability
Im stressed so i steal..make it make sense
James Shaw needs to take a leaf out of her book.
A Green leaf I assume?
U know your country's fuked wen politicians resort to crime 😮
Thats most countries then
If her issue is stress induced then how did she get balls of steel to thieve?
Not many boutiques could survive 15k hit to profits plus the average shoplifter steals 100 times before there first caught,so she could be responsible for a large dollar amount of clothes etc stolen...
Many decades ago, I was bright, well-spoken, persuasive, and idealistic. These days not so much. But at that time, more than a few people, mostly those who didn't know me well, suggested politics would be a good fit. But here's the thing - I knew (although I might not have admitted it) that my skin was way too thin to be a successful politician. I think the people close to me knew the same. Like a lot of younger men, I exuded a certain confidence, but underlying that, I could be pretty brittle. I'm not stupid. I knew this even back then.
I think all political parties need to up their game when it comes to candidate selection. Being seemingly clever is not enough. Nor does success in one field qualify a person. But all political aspirants need to be honest and humble enough to accept that the job might be beyond them. That's their responsibility. Ego, of course, is the killer.
Definitely for ardern
watch this space for the new Tea Party 21 year old celebrity status MP Hannah Clarke. Just crazy that we allow democracy to throw up fringe people with limited capacity and life experience to provide meaningful to government of the people and for ALL the people of NZ. I guess she got to do the Haka in parliament, now the grubby match begins.
@roballen5720 Your last sentence is the golden key to unlocking humanity. Not only for politicians, for everyone. Nicely said.
@@FlyingKiwi1958 they are pliable puppets
She had the decency to resign once caught - but how about all the years she wasn’t caught - hope the cops are looking for a stash
Any one think this was the first time GG stole something? A thief is a thief.
her and her socialist buddies have been stealing tax payer money for decades bro every time they draw their salaries 😂
Bingo. It's the first time she's been caught.
What if there are no charges laid? where will the blow flies go next to lay thier eggs.
The question i have is why are the police not involved in all of this why have the police not gave us a statement.
Good summary, Sean. She deserves her privacy now, having done the right thing. The pathetic utterings of Shaw and Davidson yesterday were almost comical. But coming from the leaders of a political party, were simply ridiculous.
as long as she stays out of the spotlight with the constant virtue signalling
…who says she “deserves privacy” ?
Heckle and Jeckle are not credible leaders. We still have not had a response from Shaw relating to his false or otherwise degree question. Gareth mr cellophane. Chloe appears to be the last Green hope. 6+ years in opposition will test her temper and resilence.
no if it was you or I it would be plastered everywhere and it would go on and on...also her being a justice minister/lawyer as claimed...and wearing what they all wore the arab scarves gives off a signal just there...nope she has to face justice herself but probably just get a smack on the hand and off you go...and she will run get out of the country to somewhere else??? who knows???
'Read this biotch'!😡🖕
She had no choice, well said she made the choice she has a free will, using the race card is getting old.
But totally predictable. As was the mental health excuse.
Chloe was with her needs investigating.
its hilarious whos let into parliament .
The only bad thing about democracy is that any idiot can have a vote
...oy vey rrubs hands 👏😃
Half of the members of parliament need to be under close scrutiny....many should not be there as members at all considering their attitude.
But without racism or misogyny there is only personal accountability.
she needs to be charged and have the book thrown at her. I lost my job cause of her own a agenda. I am glad she has lost her job. No she needs to stop the violin she is a lawyer for Christ sake. she needs to front up in court.
I enjoyed the narcissistic victimhood after being held responsible for being a serial thief. she thought she was untouchable and got a thrill from pushing the limits. classic Kleptomaniac. but yes, it is a disorder and falls under mental health. comments making it sound like depression or something was gross to hear. I hope she gets treatment, but being an asshole isnt anyone elses fault
Hope the Law Society suspend her licence to practise as a lawyer...if this was anyone else she would be standing before a disciplinary council and punished ...she did not pilfer as in $500 she stole $15000+ allegedly and that is only what has been brought to light.....SO a criminal record with due punishment is needed...maybe deportation back to Iran and never allowed in the country ever again.She is clever and will land on her feet again...mark my words.
shes a tealeaf,3 times caught it seems. All the subsequent bs regarding pressure etc is not an excuse.
she stole
She also must be barred from ever practising law.. I would highly doubt that she is competent in fact I believe there are issues with her cases competent
I’m ready to bet she won’t face a trial or if she does she won’t get a conviction…. If a mother with no money and children to feed would be prosecuted if she stole food…. Golmez was on a top salary and stole luxury designer goods because somehow she deserves them…..That’s her mental health issue.
Yes, exactly. I've suffered burnout from stress in the past and I reacted out of character for me, too. But my first instinct wasn't to cope by stealing clothing. I don't think most people have latent kleptomania lurking below the surface, waiting to be exposed by a bit of stress.
And yet some people do... people do ALL SORTS of crazy shit when stressed but stealing some ridicously priced clothing stretches your moral string?
@@TheDwarfishjoe zat u gholie 🤣 ?
She is the poster child for why i believe 100% list mps should not be able to sit in parliament regardless of party
Why did we pay this thing 160-180K?
To tell us people are dying in the Israel Palestine conflict?
Something about minority communities?
The world is getting warmer?
I don't need any of this from Golriz.
Here today gone tomorrow; one distraction after another.
And here come the cycle ways again!!! .....Celia Wade Brown😢
Standing down is not the decent thing. Not stealing someone elses property in the first place is.
I admire her for her professional level of shoplifting ability, on the vid she was very good at it, very slick movement, cool, calm and collected.
Do u think she has done it before😂😂😂.sad really tho.😊
Practiced❓
Lol
Prolific 😂
I am appalled the temerity of anyone who shoplifts...
You don't need to buy it as you say, you just need to steal it
The right and proper thing to do is not steal 😂 and to then use mental health as an excuse. 🤮
With the list MPs in Parliament under the MMP system of Govt, there are more that fly the coup in recent times than stay. We need to change the system and not have these inept immature muppets in our halls of power. Maybe first past the post again in future.
I thought the greens would fight for her like other things they believe in. And where's her shopping buddy Chloe? She's always the first to a microphone. Always got something to shout about. Its her mission statement. Why you quiet on this Chloe. She's your mate.
But hey. From Ponsonby to freemans bay. Your clothing is free so you say.
as they chanted "from the river to the sea our clothing will be free" AND screw the taxpayer and Capitalists
wonder what she stole from the office on her way out😮
What was the motivation for the theft of such valuable items? Funding a covert income stream for a substance addiction that arose as a result of long term self medication of an undiagnosed mental illness? Perhaps we are only being fed half the story as damage control...
half? I doubt this is even the tip of the iceberg as far as illegal activities goes
THERE WAS YOUNG GIRL CALLED... GOLRIZ GURAMEN! SHE SHOPLIFTED ON AND OFF AGIAN 😂 PROBABLY GONNA GET AWAY WITH IT AGAIN, NO REMORSE FOR THAT GREEN GIRL AGAIN!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊
Good man Sean. For Golriz to blame mental health for shoplifting is irresponsible and a cowardly way out. So if I have a mental health disorder does that mean I can go and shoplift. That is what she is saying, she is using mental health as an excuse. She should have just said she made a mistake and she is sorry
I scraped something similar off my shoe the other day, and people like that are in parliament !
well put
The decent thing would have been to not shopify in the first place. Resignation was her only option.
Privately The Greens won’t see anything wrong with what she did.Its called the ‘redistribution of wealth’ as espoused by K Marx. Don’t forget ‘tax is love’.
She earns 163.000 thousand a year and steals ?!! Thats even worse
Criticism comes with privilege.
Excellent summary of the situation sean
Did anybody see who the other person was in the video on the news?
You'd expect that once well in a year or two that she'll be back in Parliament given Uffindell is also in Parliament - he's become better over time or else he'd still be a violent thug. Anywho, glad she's gone. Can't have a shoplifter there. Especially someone associated with Justice.
Uffendel was not in parliament when he assaulted a guy when he was a teenager
@@karenorme174 yes but he developed as a character from a much worse crime so we can expect she can achieve the same outcome
Caught three times. How many times not caught?
So tough on her mental health that after two terms she ran again three months ago.
At least she fell on her sword pretty quickly.
hanks for your aspect on GRAB&RUNAMAN'S actions. As an immigrant, I thought that she has breached the condition that any criminal activity could result in the cancellation of her NZ passport or VIAS. There is no excuse for THEFT. NZ citizens do not want THIEVING IMMIGRANTS roaming our communities. She must be DEPORTED.
Ha ha ha. How many immigrants have ever been deported for theft?
Hey Sean, I love your work and respect the hits you have taken in the public eye. I am really glad you stayed in the game and kept up your public profile and work. This video is another example of your positive, truthful contribution. Stay strong mate!
"Woman of colour"? The name for the country of Iran is the origin of the term Aryan.
Thief. Send her to prison.
This wouldn't have been a problem if she shopped at the Warehouse 😂
And she should be arrested, charged and imprisoned just like anyone else, if not let every and all the other out. No double standards.
A 'woman of colour'...!? She looks just like my Kiwi-as sister in summertime lol 😅 No excuse there. We all need to be accountable for our choices. Good on her for falling on her sword, and I wish her well, out of politics.
What about Shaws lying about his qualifications..? With a boss like him she’s going to be ok stealing!!
Just remember, she got caught!
She didn’t suddenly confess and what about the sympathy for the shop assistants who had to confront her! That would have been traumatic for them..
Good to see the police press charges finally they haven growen some balls.
So as she’s mentally I’ll and a alleged criminal will she enter a forensic inpatient unit like others would
Life moves on
Neither do i buy into their explainations as to why she did what she did.
