  • David Seymour is a man on a mission. He’s determined that his controversial Tiriti referendum is on the negotiating table despite Mr Luxon describing it as divisive. David is delighted the the Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Voice to the Australian Parliament failed.

    I love what David said about practical solutions. I have three maori children with probably a higher percentage maori blood than many of these flash maoris (yes thats what they at the marae call the woke ones). But I dont think they need special treatment because their canoe arrived here before mine. Actually at the time of the treaty, their chief encouraged inter racial marrying so we could become one people. So I feel based on what ive been told from that era that the intention was to move forward as one people. I think the leaders then would be disappointed to see this far down the line a separatist view being pushed.

Can you not brush your teeth AND keep your hair clean? Why are you comparing two totally unrelated things? Why do you act like we can only have one or the other? Is ACT so useless they can't manage both?

      Go read the treaty, Maori accepted the sovereignty of the crown over these islands in exchange, Maori gain full English citizenship with the same rights and responsibilities as the rest of us. There was no agreement of a "partnership" between Maori and Pakeha, claims otherwise are lies.

    As a European , ex pat kiwi what I will say is , David is extremely respectful in the way he puts a political word spin on what a lot, and I can't say all, to be accurate , non indigenous New Zealanders really want and what he's getting at . True equality , we are all equal , no one is more or less important than another . What that looks like in real world terms is , no ethnic prioritizing for indigenous on health waiting lists , do it on time , or alphabetically , no reserved seats in the job market or university places for indigenous members of society , you win the place fairly with everyone else . Unless we get rid of those unfair conditions in society the jealousy and anger is always going to interfere with becoming a truly united country on equal footing and those are just the facts , it's human nature. There's a reason when Indigenous AND non Indigenous come to Australia they succeed exponentially , and they do succeed that's almost entirely a fact , running successful businesses , buying property , lovely cars , getting wealthy , and it's not just the different economy , it's that there's no social support here , so you have no choice but to take on an attitude of refusal to fail , and then abundance flows . We need equal footing in New Zealand so that a refusal to fail becomes necessary , then attitude becomes the determining factor , not race.

    Declaration of human rights derives from modern [French] philosophy [natural rights]. Earlier British thought saw a 'state of nature' without rights [solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short]. Historically, from the Brits perspective, rights only came with lawa nd order, which came with the establishing sovereignty ergo the Treaty. Of course, it is all political now, but the reality back then was that sovereignty was established over NZ with the *declaration* in May 1840. The signing of the Treaty in Feb 1840 was to appease the humanitarians back in London... and was really just the nominal cession of sovereignty. But of course, this is history not politics.

      @shauntempley9757 Před 11 měsíci +2

      Except the British acknowledges the United Tribal Declaration signing of 1835, in accordance with official practice at that time to make it official. Both the Monarch and the House Of Commons recognised its existence.
      Which means those rights were handed over with that Declaration, and were preserved in Article 2 of the Treaty. It is the existence of both documents is why the Waitangi Tribunal stated what it did.
      It is right when it said Maori never gave up sovereignty as a people with their beliefs and culture and language, and food sources. They just gave up sole sovereignty as a nation, instead sharing that authority with the Monarch.
      Which puts todays Iwi leaders that meet at the Iwi Forum at the Monarchs level internationally, while Iwi as a individual entity is at the Parliaments level nationally, the regional councils regionally, and the councils level locally, and Maori individual persons are equal to the Scottish clans in Scotland, the Welsh in Wales, and the English in Great Britain.
      In those nations, those people have first say on matters before everyone else. It is the same with Maori. Our say comes first, then everyone else has theirs. The main risk, is if David does this referendum without clear limits, he risks turning full political control over to Iwi, and the complete and permanent dissolving of Parliament.
      It has been made very clear in Muldoon's time, that the Treaty is how Parliament has the authority to make decisions here. If the Treaty is ended, Parliament is ended, and power goes back to Iwi permanently.
      He is risking even worse problems that Brexit caused, where we very easily end up like Israel and Gaza are right now.
