Pull the other leg Wiz.Iām not on the side of anyone, Iām just laughing that Labour is acting the same as Trump and the antivaxers and those that criticised so hard are excusing it.
His comments are bang on.
I am no supporter of Destiny but I respect that he has helped many mÄori turn away from gang life and violence. Nobody else on the political spectrum has done that as far as I can remember. The mÄori elite certainly haven't. Some gangsters have been able to look inward and turn their lives around but that has been their own strength of character.

Religion has done that job well. Doesn't make Tamaki less a grifter and the conman he is.

Hopefully by pointing out the hypocrisy Labour will reflect and pull back and stop being so divisive.
In tying Labours actions to idiots like Trump and Tamaki it might drive home the error of Labours ways.
In all seriousness, I wouldnāt want a political assassination on my conscience.

Never a truer word saidTipping Point is on.Appropriately
Monbiot is an idealist who has been wrong about a great number of things.
No.
Thats one of the non sequitors that follows every comment ad nauseam about mÄori that people like Tamaki (and so many other self-righteous, ambitious others) say whenever they need gullible people with a cognitive bias of fear about what they don't or can't or won't try to understand.
You know, hear something often enough it must be true right? Or that guy is mÄori so he must know etc etc.
Doesn't matter that its got nothing to do with what is being discussed, or what is being asked for, or what is humane and just, or that they want to have a role in managing the environment to help protect it.
Erroneous and constant non sequitors, ad nauseam....repeated everywhere and even on here by some.
Those bloody Maoris eh! All they want is handouts! They get millions, what about the rest of us! Why can't they just sort their own problems out instead of us carrying the burden.? All they do is take, take, take and they want to OWN the rivers, the foreshore and all the fishing quotas, they want to set up a this that and the next thing because they want apartheid...etc.
Educate yourself and listen to what is actually being said, happening, and stop buying into the tropes being thrown out there constantly that are just ignorant and weaponised to keep you in that same bias.
Over and out from this echo chamber of the entrenched. Be careful what you wish for - will be interesting to revisit this thread in the coming months and years.
And to those that are erudite and eloquent, have enjoyed your responses in an unfortunate flogging a dead horse scenario. Kia kaha!
The season is almost upon us & turning my attention now to something that is hopefully more progressive and uplifting!

Facts. Tamaki is interested in only 2 things.
Building a cult of personality around himself
And profiting off said cult.

He wants a referendum clarifying the treaty principles
- this has been construed as doing away with the treaty which is totally false. National wonāt even let it get to a referendum and then the public would need to agree to it. And it would still be the treaty, just clarifying what it means because nobody knows.
They are reducing the force through of Te Reo
- if Labour had made government departments in English AND Te Reo like a partnership, instead of only Te Reo there would be no problem.
That want everyone to be equal
- I canāt understand why this is controversial except through an entitlement basis
The coalition have been very clear and upfront about what they are doing and why (unlike He Puapua). The reality is they will now publicly back down and slowly implement changes behind the scenes in a non transparent way because the electorate hasnāt been mature enough to debate it.
They have made clear they are pro mÄori, want to keep the treaty, believe in righting past wrongs, want mÄori to succeed but want to debate how itās done.
Thereās just been a big coordinated amount of outrage for political reasons against everything the new government is doing.

Itās a democracy with 3 parties democratically elected, keeping each other in check and a referendum required to push through the main change. Clear, transparent and democracy!
Maybe if Labour werenāt so underhand with He Puapua we wouldnāt be where we are now. They couldnāt even define co-governance.
Why are mÄori afraid of everyone being equal?
