Ultimatum delivered to Dunedin Otagon protesters

From Checkpoint, 6:17 pm on 8 April 2022

Pack up and leave, or we'll move you on - that's the message from the Dunedin City Council to a small group of protesters that have occupied the Octagon for almost two months.

The group began the occupation on February 11, ostensibly in support of the larger anti-mandate protest in Wellington.

But, as Timothy Brown reports, with most mandates lifted and the council's vaccine pass requirements scrapped, they've now outstayed any welcome they might have had.
