    Default Separatist Protests + counter-protests

    Maori separatists and Treaty revisionists, who are unhappy that Maori ceded sovereignty in the Treaty of Waitangi, are aiming to kick off protests and disruption on Tuesday this week, bringing division and negativity to the lives of all Kiwi’s. Hands up who would join a counter-protest movement aimed at highlighting unity and the need to go forward together as one nation?

    Labour's version of adjusted Democracy still not something digestable in places ?

    Perhaps the Activists are now getting worried they might lose relevance ?


    The level of support for their activities might be vastly lower than they would imagine ..

    We are all just going to meekly sit back why these separatists stoke division. Sad.

    The problem is that they didn't cede sovereignty in the Te Tiriti.

    Most sat back while the farmers etc marched, blocked roads, and generally caused a nuisance.

    Sovereignty and kawanatanga were both alien concepts to most Māori. I guess the discussions surrounding the Treaty would have explained the concepts before they assented?

    We are all embroiled in a mess of separatism and secession now. The situation gets worse every day.

    Why ? Because a few Activists now don't like what they see ?

    It’s the activists plus the media, the bureaucracy, the left wing political parties on one side…..and then there’s all the rest of us. The media are currently amplifying this ‘day of protest’ in order to try to maximise the numbers & the disruption.
