Road closures are expected to be put in place starting tonight at the Parliament end of Lambton Quay, lower Molesworth St and Kate Sheppard Place. "That's 97k followers free from the influence of that parasite, what a day to be alive!" She has said she intends to attend the Parliament protest on Tuesday. We also have connected Kiwis to reliable sources of information including the Ministry of Health, Unite Against Covid-19, Ministry for Pacific Peoples and Te Puni Kōkiri." The company declined to comment directly on Baker or her page. Since then, she has posted in support of Russia's war in Ukraine and continued to share information in conflict with public health advice. Baker has listed her new Facebook page as a "media/news company" and has said her live streams showed "what was actually going on behind the scenes" at the previous protest. A police spokesperson has said unauthorised vehicles would be restricted in the area from tonight until the end of the protest. It comes almost six months on from the 23-day anti-mandate occupation at Parliament that was brought to a violent and fiery end. In May, the Herald asked Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, about disinformation from the Parliament protest and about Baker's incorrect content in particular. Baker, the daughter of former New Conservatives leader Leighton Baker, is one of the public faces of the anti-vaccine and conspiracy movement in New Zealand.
