Chris Luxon says the Government's taking steps to ban further protests outside politicians' homes.
Protesters gathered outside Foreign Minister Winston Peters' Auckland house on Thursday, in support of the Kiwis detained by Israel, while travelling in a flotilla to Gaza.
The Prime Minister says legislation is currently before select committee to ban such activity.
He says [told Mike Hosking] there is a time and place for protests.
Luxon says there is lots of places to protest a public figure, but you don't need to do it outside their homes, impacting their families.
He says these protests outside homes are "not the Kiwi way".
