I'm sure the college educated will say the baby had no chance because of Colonialism! That is the garbage they teach in schools these days!
Whānau impacted by race-based separatism in Pukekohe to receive formal apology
The apology goes in some way to address the injustices Māori whanau suffered between the 1920s and early 1960s.

So when do we have a grown talk about NZ’s history that some are still alive to remember atrocities like in this article and those spoken to about it. Absolutely any child losing their life in this manner is unacceptable and should be called out but so should the history of those who you are insinuating are the perpetrators ,and not to the same scale of that in the article but still an underbelly there to this day. I would say if this article doesn’t make your blood boil, you’re not kiwi. Imagine a living person who has memories of a white man kicking your mother in the head, imagine what you would feel towards that person and what he represents. None of this comes from nowhere, even the states role in the birth of gangs like the mongrel mob and black power.

You can add the "wimmen fair pay" stuff into this mix as well
Why don't you ask him - he is the minister of sport after all.
So you don't know either. Thanks.

You'll have to ask Winnie. He needs some exposure so he's the only one talking at present

If your Luxon and Hipkins has already approved it you have to endorse it don’t you?
In any case I’m actually ok with our sports minister going to a Rugby world cup final where we have a good change of winning.
Perk of the job and good for promotion of NZ if he represents the country in an official capacity amongst all the power brokers. This could be seen as an intangible investment as it could plant the seeds for hosting a world cup in the future.

I know it's endorsed by Hipkins and Luxon. I said that in my original post. Why is he going is my question. What is the benefit to NZ for the trip? I get he is the sports minister but that surely doesn't automatically mean you go to international sporting events on the tax payer does it? Unless there is some tangible benefit to the country which is what I was wanting to know. Is he off to India next for the Cricket world cup? That would make more sense to me in building relationships with a country we are looking to expand our free trade with.

He will retire soon from politics and next thing you know he will be a knighted and the next high commissioner for London and hanging out ant all the sporting events with Mallard.

Quite weird language to reply back with on the topic.Stuff

Certainly a deplorable attack but not comparable to the holocaust that the Jews faced. There seems to be an effort in many places to paint the enemy as nazis. The Israelis are doing it and Russia did it to justify their invasion of the Ukraine.
but at least he's not messaging teenagers now.

'Here we go again': Oranga Tamariki slammed in wake of toddler's death

I’ve said before my wife was an ECE teacher and personally reported several children to Oranga Tamariki.'Here we go again': Oranga Tamariki slammed in wake of toddler's death
The comments come amid fears more children will die if issues aren't addressed.
Given the context she knows the family intimately and spends almost as much time with the children as the whanau do so knows exactly what’s going on. It’s a big call to report a family and you need to be very concerned.
She has reported some heavy level stuff and they basically ignore it. Do an investigation and close the case without even talking to the family… how does that work?
It’s enough that the people in her centre lost faith in the system
Having said that, Oranga Tamariki is between a rock and a hard place. They have attempted to intervene in the past and been heavily criticised and basically told children have to stay with whanau at all costs, even when in lots of cases they shouldn’t be. Some people simply can’t look after themselves, let alone be competent caring for a child…

Luxon keeps banging on about a " strong and stable government ".
Will never happen when the 3 leaders are just after the cream positions.
