‘Ferris and party co-leader Rawiri Waititi later on did not stick exactly to the script, instead of “Kīngi Tiāre te Tuatoru”, or King Charles III in te reo, the two MPs referred to “Kīngi Harehare te Tuatoru”.
Harehare can mean “scab”. Asked about this after the ceremony Waititi said “Hare” was also a term for Charles.
“It’s what we say on the coast,” he said, adding - with a wry smile - he would never call the King a word such as “scab”.’

Standing up for unity and against separatism is now apparently “belittling Maori culture”. That these trolls, happy to mock the mental health of others, will swear blind they are ‘not Left wing’ is just another indication of their disingenuous & duplicitous natures.

Oh I didn't realise it was comedy hour.
A bit more notice next time & we can organize the canned laughter.

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.

When you say 'Standing up for unity & against separatism', do you mean Pakeha or NZ European being absorbed into & subjugated to Tikanga Māori ?
An interesting thought but I think there would be some resistance to that.

Sinn Fein in Northern Ireland refuse to take of the Oath of Allegiance to the King. So they do not take their seats in the UK parliament.

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?

Absolutely.
They had 5000kg of potatoes and 30 whole pigs, along with barrels of tobacco assembled on 5th January 1840, so they could chew it all over.
That in itself was a major achievement, as Pak and Save wasn't trading in those days!
Little did Hone Heke, Kawiti, Waka Nene and co know that their right to smoke would be deprived from their descendants by Smoke-free legislation in the 2020's, and even more bizarrely give rise to protest in the street by Te Pati in 2023, when a new set of Rangitira wanted to give it back!
