I must say they seem extremely sorry they got caught.
What does the law society do in such a case. A lawyer breaking the law. I know drs can face disciplinary action.
Nb: is a lawyer really an essential worker??

Yes - for priority court cases and nothing else. They are meant to be agents of teh court ... but don't be surprised if that gets more than a slap on the wrist

From the article:
Under Covid restrictions, lawyers are classed as essential workers.
New Zealand Law Society president Tiana Epati told Stuff all registered lawyers were sent a letter at the start of lockdown that stated travel across Covid borders was allowed but only for “priority court proceedings”.
“If any lawyer was proved to have misused this letter that would be a disciplinary matter. There is no other acceptable use of this letter,” she said. -

@williethewaiter It's like people who joined the Moonies - they had to be sent for de-programming.
Unfortunately, it seems like there's millions of people completely invested in this bullshit - and they are dying for it.
yep. you can find them on here.. https://www.sorryantivaxxer.com/
I'm 'probably' a horrible human being for enjoying what is no doubt one of the best 'told ya so' sites ever.
There's a remarkably similar look to all these men and women one could describe as #WellFed

Realistically, I'd think about 500 hours of community service - perhaps serving up meals at a homeless shelter - would be about right for Mr. Willis and his partner.
I'm a bit annoyed at Jeremy Whatsisname on The Project putting in a plea for everyone to lay off them.
It was a calculated act that has backfired spectacularly on them and they will have to wear the consequences - like everyone else who commits crimes/offences.
The apparently privileged need their arses kicked as hard if not harder than everyone else.
E.g. also Prince Andrew.

I just clicked on the link and his shit eating zoolander pout in the photo while horse racing is the most punchable thing I’ve seen in as long as I can remember.
He's not "horse racing".
Whatever. He’s on a horse and he looks like a fluffybunny.

Mum looks extra sorry...(or scary)
The cynical side of me says that their QC got name suppression so they had time to plan out their strategy and minimise damage. Those statements are scripted AF. Drafted by a QC and approved by a judge.
Now let's see how the Law Society acts.

You have to take your hat off to the people developing these vaxs and treatments.

@chris-b I actually thought good on him when he started talking about it. But then he kinda went too far in saying absolutely lay off. Not that the death threat fringe would be watching the project or anything... or are they!!
I wouldn't be surprised if their respective folks just let them sort themselves out. The guys mum came out swinging pretty hard about it being a stellar dick move. I 100% agree that a big ol community sentence would be far better than a fine or similar.
