A vote for the Greens is a vote for mediocrity.

We mustn't be afraid of saying no to decisions that aren't in the best interests of a wider community than Maori.....Councilors should not feel bullied to placate for fear of the fallout of those decisions.
-
Was not 500 outside protesting, the council should hold that facility to task. The treaty was about sovereignty to the crown
-
They are not the only council to put English second to Maori. Why is a language takeover by stealth allowed to happen?
-
Sad to say Wellington city is a place I would not like to live in. It is woke to the core.
-
Close down Waitangi tribunal done its job,we got better things to spend our tax dollars on
-
Partnership makes it a bi-cultural city, not a multi-cultural city which our capitol city should be!
-
To the ideologues it doesn't matter how many or how few of the favoured group are in residence. It could be half a dozen and they would still want to be in authority over the million other citizens. Imagine going to China and demanding all signage was prominently English first and maybe a small bit of Mandarin. Trouble is, they f--k it up for everyone, locals and overseas guests both business and tourists. But they don't care because they have both hands out for free stuff like a 21st century cargo cult.
-
Pretty soon all public signs and online information will be completely unintelligible and therefore meaningless. Is that the purpose? But who is promoting the minority language and why?? This guy sounds like he’s also too scared to say anything about anything, sitting on the fence about everything.
-
4% of the country speak Maori. It's all just a power trip. It's about vanity, it's not sincere. It's propbably going to get worse...
-
Its easy for children of the settler colonial project to pretend we all start from the same place with equal oportunities. Having enjoyed advantage for generations. I often think that Maori should be lamenting the Treaty agreement as things got worst for them after it. What have the gained from the treaty?
-
The colonists view of history! It is unlikely that maori understood the concept of sale or land transfer, or signature or land ownership in the western sense. One way or other the English were taking the land. I guess the fared better than natives in Australia, Canada, North and South America. Or Palestine for that matter. As that is another example of white Europeans invading another continent and wiping out the population. Maori should be thankful the treaty allowed them what exactly?
-
Michael, please allow ray the time to make his point. You are a very good interviewer. Sis will probhably door knock me , but people having conversation , gives me hope
-
Understand the history and remember that Maori were indigenous first New Zealanders and the rest were laterday colonists.
