Greenpeace not a charity: court - national | Stuff.co.nz

Greenpeace not a charity: court - national | Stuff.co.nz: "Greenpeace New Zealand's political activities mean it cannot register as a charity, the High Court has decided.

Greenpeace appealed against a 2010 ruling by the Charities Commission which found its promotion of 'disarmament and peace' was political rather than educational and while it did not directly advocate illegal acts, Greenpeace members had acted illegally."
