Unruly Brit family threaten to go to ‘human rights people’ over ‘torture’ in New Zealand

The Brit family accused of shocking acts during their New Zealand holiday is talking tough as they finally arrive home in the UK.

The British family who terrorised New Zealand are back in the United Kingdom and complaining about their “holiday from hell”.

The family, dubbed “the unruly tourists” by Kiwi media, have been accused of trashing a beach, running out on a cafe bill, trashing an apartment and stealing a journalist’s phone, The Sun reports.

Their alleged conduct was so bad that the Mayor of Auckland — New Zealand’s largest city — labelled them “trash” and “worse than pigs”.

The Doran clan touched down at Heathrow Terminal 3 at 6.40am on Sunday local time, according to the Daily Mail, and tried to hide their faces before downing cans of Red Bull.

Patriarch Larry told the Mail Online the family had done nothing wrong on the trip.

“We’ve been tortured, we’ve been condemned,” he said.

“It’s lies, they’ve condemned us. We’ve been hiding in the mountains for two days.”

Larry voiced again that the family went to see the Hobbits and scenery from Lord of the Rings.

The family’s treatment was so bad Larry told the Daily Mail he would be “going to the (British) Citizens Advice people” and the “human rights people”.

The family arrived in New Zealand January 11, and it didn’t take long before the four adult Dorans were served with 28-day deportation liability notices.

Gran Barbara Doran, 55, insists her family is innocent.

Another member of the group aged 26, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was charged and bailed from Auckland District Court for assault with a weapon, reckless driving, and fraud by dishonestly using a document.

He has been bailed until February.

The group revoiced a claim they made to Kiwi media outlet Newshub, that their arrival was after a lot of the offences they are accused of took place.

Joe Doran — sarcastically nicknamed Honest John — actually resorted to dying his hair blonde to avoid being recognised during the later part of the holiday.

The Dorans said they got accused of leaving rubbish on a beach which wasn’t theirs.

After the notorious beach rubbish incident, Larry said, the whole country was after him, with one Kiwi even supposedly trying to run him off the road.

He was referring to people distracting him by calling his family “gyspy scum”, causing him to crash into a kerb, setting off the airbags.

The family abandoned the vehicle and souvenir hunters stripped the rental car of its number plates, tax sticker and keys, apparently left in the ignition.

At one point as the family tried to cover their faces, Larry threatened a camera man: “I’ll break your bones. I’ll break your camera.”

The group of around 12 included brothers John and David Johnson, their partners, children, and mother, Eileen Doran, of Liverpool.

In a radio interview, Auckland Mayor Phil Goff said: “I’ve asked the council to follow up because I want to see them loaded with an infringement fine for trashing our country. They shouldn’t even be here.”

The statements have led to the family threatening legal action against the mayor.
