It is definitely not a lie. It is actually well documented that the PIJF came with strings attached. They had to do something for the $55m and then the next $55m. One of the conditions was to show a commitment to Te Tiriti O Waitangi and Te reo. REally quite disgusting from the Labour government. I hope Stuff and Sinead go out of business soon.
O and by the way, when and why did the Treaty of Waitangi, a document created by the British, start to being referred to Te Tiritity ? It is just another example of a minority forcing its will upon the majority'.
