Right Wing Resistance
The Right Wing Resistance, a right-wing group described as neo-Nazi,[1] was founded by Kyle Chapman in Christchurch with a group of white nationalists. Its introduction to the New Zealand public was its Christchurch Street Patrols in October 2009, which appeared to target Polynesian youths.[2]
It attempted to recruit further members in Auckland.[3] Press coverage has resulted from distributions of flyers comparing immigration to an invasion, which were called "despicable" by the Race Relations Commissioner.[4][5]
They have been known to help organise protests and other street activities alongside the National Front.[6]
2011 general election activities
During the 2011 general election campaign, members of the group disrupted a candidates election meeting in Christchurch, appearing in military-style clothing. They stated that they would protest at polling booths throughout New Zealand on election day; however, this did not happen.[7]
