National would deny residency to 'protected person'

From Morning Report, 7:25 am on 16 October 2019

The National Party is accusing the government of a "Sroubek 2.0" situation after granting residency to a man with six drink driving convictions. The man is a "protected person" under the international convention against torture and cannot be deported. National says it would not have given the man residency, and would leave him in limbo. Susie Ferguson speaks to the party's leader, Simon Bridges.
