    From the comments here the real problem tangata whenua have is a left/right political divide, the Tamas, Shanes, Winstons vs Rawiris and Takutas.

    🙏 NZ politics and strategic would come togheter and not important what party its ruling now or tomorrow.... having a plan togheter going into future and now.
    Like in USA, Germany or another always blame government before made all wrong.... better all kiwis would have a target and togheter always correct they path.
    Changing course of acting every 4-5 years need always so mutch money, dedication and work to change strategic and reorganise or fix new plans.
    Best would be thats all parties always must find consent acting?
    Going slower but with consistency .
    And kiwis path of consistent living with accept new need and interests its mostly able to go in Aotearoa.
    🙏 kiwis working togheter and for all.
    Not years for they and then for another.
    Kiwis must know thats world safety is only with NZ.

    Tama is one of those "change from the inside" type of people hes playing the long game, i dont see it as a bad thing to have people like him in these spaces, that being said its becoming a zero-sum game now and i would rather risk a net negative through decisive action than wait on hope for another 10 years..

      ​@@rtvandle your perception that Tama is damaging his mana is your own view and not that I or many other Maori share. The government is in a difficult position due to poor decisions made by the previous Labour led administration and some difficult choices and sacrifices need to be made for the good of the country as a whole. That is called leadership

      ​@@rtvandleLet's be clear: your views are your own, and you don't get to speak for me or assume my opinions as a proud Maori. I'm certain you don't speak for Tama either, so don't pretend to represent our voices.
      As a leader, you may need to make tough decisions, but that doesn't mean sacrificing the well-being of our people. Tama, as part of the National caucus, has a responsibility to uphold the coalition agreement. However, let's not forget that their support only extends to the first reading. Beyond that, they're free to oppose the bill.
      It's no secret that the National Party and Chris Luxon have shown little interest in revisiting the Treaty. Their lack of commitment is evident. The government's coalition partners are only obligated to support this bill to the first reading, after which they can reject it. Let's not be naive about the political games being played here.

    Finally Mihingarangi actually took someone to task and stayed with the line of questioning. Tama is a disappointment on many levels. Couldn't look her in the eye when replying to the question of the principals bill - as minister for Māori, te reo, and a Māori his first position was to declare he's a National party man first, coalition partner 2nd and te ao Māori 3rd.
