This video was posted by Steve Abel from Greenpeace NZ. It's Rata Pue bidding farewell to Lucy and the Taranaki 7 before their court date on 18 April 2012 (the case was adjourned to 3 May and has since been adjourned again until 18 May 2012)
Since this video was taken Rata Pue has passed away. Lucy tweeted about this recently
Been away at tangi (funeral) for Maori peace/ eco activist Rata Pue who took care of us in Taranaki. Was so good to us. A crushing loss. RIP
