AN outspoken Kiwi politician has proposed a new solution to the country's child abuse problem - pay the "appalling underclass" not to breed.
Michael Laws - who stirred up controversy by calling the late Tongan King a "bloated brown slug'' - has again hit the headlines.
"That there is a group within our society who give their children no hope nor opportunity from the moment that they are born," the regional mayor wrote on the New Zealand radio websitewhere he broadcasts as a talkback DJ.
"That these ‘parents’ are known to authorities ... and yet the authorities can only intervene after children have been harmed."
Mr Laws goes on to write: "it would be far better for this appalling underclass to be offered financial inducements not to have children, given the toxic environment that they would provide for any child in their care."
The mayor believes "the consequent financial and social savings to our community would be considerable.
"There are too many people who should not have children."
(Here is a new idea how about going after the people who abuse their children and if the current law is not allowing you to do that work through the right channels to change it. Read more of the above story New Zealand mayor: Pay 'appalling underclass' not to breed.)
