In an extended interview, National Party candidate Tama Potaka discusses Māori development, co-governance, social housing, and land claims with Mihingarangi Forbes.
Made with the Support of TMP. Public Interest Journalism funded through NZ On Air.
Thank you for this interview which has now convinced me to vote for Tama. Get our people working please, that is the answer to our poverty. 244,000 people under $30,000 = 244,000 people on benefits.
Say you work for National with out saying you work for National 😂
Best interviewer in New Zealand. Mahingarangi draws out the issues with the relevant facts.
I didn't quite understand the health boards partnership mentioned at the end, is there a feature on this elsewhere?
Tama is going to have a lot of responsibility on his shoulders in a right wing government. It's going to be very lonely being Māori in that coalition.
At least national have stacked their list with a little more Māori and Pasifika in the upper regions of the list this time.
Last election they lost a huge chunk of their brown faces.
You don’t even realise how racist your thinking is. Why would he be lonely? Cause all Maori are the same? Racist assumption
Lonely? 8/20, one of the highest levels of Māori representation in cabinet for a long time ….
@@jonnyk5614 How many of them are colonized?
If I were Luxon, I’d be too intimidated to be interviewed by Mihingarangi Forbes too. Shoot, I’m me and I’d be in awe and terror. She’s a gun.
I wish she hosted a leaders debate.
Forbes needs to educate whanau (1) if you want a house get a job and save for a deposit, then get a loan like we all had to..stop relying on hand outs
(2) and to improve health stop smoking and drinking , good personal choices make a difference.
Banging on about being disadvantaged is shallow
Our mihi is awesome
take his blardi brown card off him. Maori did not cede soveriegnty
Whoever told Tama he needs to step away from the party line and lean into his expertise and more authentic self has possibly saved this man’s political career.
He has a lot to offer his party and Māori, I hope he’s valued and respected by his colleagues.
He ruined it all with his korero around te Tiriti, how disingenuous and intellectually dishonest given his depth of knowledge.
He has a long way to take his party.
They can absolutely be more in line with Māori, they’ve done better before. Tama is no Pita, but he has a lot to offer National.
there's a lot of white new Zealanders earning less as well no mention of them aye
Good convo. I don’t agree with him at all, but a constructive talk.
Cool Mihinarangi ask him about Treaty Waitangi give it rest.
I try and see the good in people, but that man has a split arero.
I dont think the big blue national badge works a bit of an over kill
i was curious about the facts and they didn't clarify... so the 30k / year comment could be the profile of someone earning a minimum wage of 20$/hr, doing 40hrs a week (and assuming they are not paid 4 week holidays + stat days off). After tax.. that's about 30k a year - for sure, that's hard to live on
À manź ĥome is his çastle (Rangitiratanga),but his wife is the boss (tino Rangitiratanga)
What do you mean Chris Luxton doesn’t have time ? This must be an old interview because he was just on here the other day! 😮
This chick is fierce 😂
People who create jobs in NZ and pay employees out of their own pocket should they really pay tax I personally don't think so. They are creating the jobs and any profits they make should be theirs.
She is amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩
If you weren’t so arrogant and pro māori, more people may agree to be interviewed by you.
You need to acknowledge that Maori are not the only people in New Zealand.
same tax rate for all - can't be fairer than that.
MAORI ,MAORI ,MAORI how much more do they want
Honourable outcomes re Te Tiriti O Waitangi. No forked tongues again.
I call him tama potato now tee hee hee
Talk about speaking with a forked tongue! "I'm not across all the details" but I think this guy is full of it.
Would you prefer that Tama fudge it and pretend that he knows all the details?
@@Tehui1974 No, I'd prefer he give a straight answer to a direct question.
If you missed that, I suggest you go back and re-watch it. His dishonesty shines through; he sold his soul to the National Party.
What a toxic interviewer
We are paying for this ,and how much is she getting paid, she is funding her own company with taxpayers money. Corruption.
This fullah LMAO
Why is this man in the National party? He appears to be solely for Maori. Does he represent "all" the people of the Hamilton West electorate.? Is he consider himself a New Zealander? The interviewer is acting like a dentist pulling teeth. Seems she want to pressure him and direct/change his mind on various subjects.
E hoa e Tama - Koretaka ō kōrero
He pane tīmangamanga
He arero hūkokikoki
He whakaaro tatutatu
E hē tō kōrero e pā ana Ngā Puhi me te Tiriti - Kāhore a Puhi e whoatu tōna mana motuhake tōna Tinorangatiratanga
Tōna whakapapa - tēnā pōhēhē tēnā
E hē tō kōrero e pā ana te cogovernance
E hoa
E hē koe
He koretaka koe
Moumou taima
Hokia ki tō maunga
Hokia ki tō marae
Hokia ki tō wharepaku
Me whakatika tō āhua e Tama
Yesham master
I just can't understand why this man supports National because he is having to compromise on all his Maori values.
He obviously has no values
Huh?
Ahakoa kāore au e whakaae ana ki ngā kaupapa katoa a te Nahinara, pērā i tā rātou whakaaro ki te whakakore i ngā tohu o ngā rōpū whakaweti tangata - e whakaaro ana ahau kāore e nui te painga - he whakaaro pai tonu ki au ki te whakatakoto i tētahi tāke moni mō ngā tāngata whai rawa. 🤔💸 Heoi, ko te āhua nei, kāore a Nahinara e pīrangi ki te ngāueue te waka o te tangata whai rawa.
While I don't entirely align with all the initiatives Nahinara proposes, such as their stance on banning gang patches-which I feel might not make a substantial impact-there's definitely merit in considering alternative ideas, like perhaps implementing a wealth tax for the affluent. It seems like Nahinara doesn't really want to rock the boat for wealthy individuals. 🤔💸
Na, kua whai wāhi ki taku ngākau a Tama Potaka me ōna whakaaro whakahirahira mō te whakapakari me te arahi i ngā pakihi Māori ki ngā pae tawhiti! 🚀 Ehara i te mahere anake; he haerenga ki te whakamana me te toitū mō te hapori Māori. He whakaaro tino whakamana te whakaaro ki te whakarite kia taea e te Iwi te tuku ratonga. 🌱💪
Tama Potaka, on the other hand, has captured my interest with his splendid ideas about boosting and navigating Maori businesses to prosperous horizons! 🚀 It's not just a plan; it's a journey toward empowerment and sustainability for the Maori community. The idea of enabling Iwi to contribute to services is absolutely empowering and goes beyond mere words-it's an action that speaks volumes about autonomy and confidence in one’s capabilities. 🌱💪
Ināianei, kei te urutomo tēnei ariā kawana-rua ki roto i ētahi wai hūkerikeri. Hei whakaatu anake, kāore e whakaatu i ngā kete katoa e wātea ana, terā pea ka huri hei pūnaha whakahaere me ngā upoko nui ake, ā, kāore pea e tino mārakerake ana. 🌊🚤
Now, the co-governance concept does indeed sail into a bit of choppy waters. Instead of enlightening and showcasing all the kete available, it might simply turn into a governance system with more chiefs and perhaps not as much clear, unified direction. 🌊🚤
Ko te pātai e toko ake: Ka whakaatu tūturu rānei ngā Pākehā i ngā āhuatanga katoa o ngā mōhiohio me ngā kaupapa here? 🗂 Ko te mahi tahi tūturu, te noho tahi a ngā tāngata katoa ki te tēpu kotahi, te hanga kaupapa here mō ia tangata, terā pea ko te tikiti koura ki tētahi anamata e whai reo ana te katoa i roto i ngā whare whakahaere. 🤝🗣
The question springs up: Will Pakeha genuinely reveal every facet of information and policy? 🗂 Genuine collaboration, where everyone sits at the same table crafting policies that wrap around every individual inclusively, might be the golden ticket to a future where everyone has a voice that echoes in the halls of governance. 🤝🗣
Joanne, your bias is very obvious. Not professional btw
He should feel shame for the policy’s of his party National
None of what this guy says makes any sense. How do we help the 244000 māori earning less than $30k a year? Ummm firstly get the immigration and related settings right. Mixing immigration i.e non new zealanders and kaimahi typically referencing public sector or māori workers in the same sentence. Eh??? Using labour as your baseline is shameful.
I like Tama a pity he's Natural. WINSTON FOR PRIME MINISTER
Not that old man!!
Depending how young you are WINSTON would leave you in his dust more ways than one
If Tama went to NZ first they would of had a stronger coalition in favor of urban Maori Development and a bicultural Treaty/Tiriti o Waitangi.
His RAP music made sense unlike this nonsense they have out nowaday's. It was poetic & rockable.
Potatoes speak with fork tongue
