    It wasn't a forced purchase - the seller has been wanting to sell for a while.
    The land will be used for part of a settlement with Ngati Kahu - they don't have a treaty settlement yet.

    People trying to make something out of nothing and not at all like Ihumatao.
    Did you not read the final paragraph?

    Kaitiaki of occupation, Wi Popata, said; "There is another 10000 to 20000 hectares that still needs to come back, once we get home and get energised we might just occupy somewhere else"

    Sounds like an open floodgate to me.

    Watch how that works if the land isn't for sale.
    The points are these
    - the land was for sale
    - settlement to be done at some stage (being worked on I gather)

    How much free education or affordable homes could these settlements pay for?

    It seems like a better use of the money.

    CALLING ALL LANDOWNERS.

    Especially those in hard to sell areas.

    Ask a high price, Arrange an occupation and.... well you know the rest, Mr Liddle and Jacy will come running with the tax payer funded chq book.

    Corporate welfare for a high income community (both the property owners and Iwi).

    Seems like something national would have done.

    More high jinks from Jinxcinda's 'transparent' regime.

    Waka Kotahi have been spraying Glyphosate around, like its water on the countrys highways.

    They have been resisting attempts by media to get the inside story.

    What will the Greens say?

    What will J put in our water, once she and the big mahout from the Waikato get control of it.

    3 waters or P waters?

    In order to conscientiously comply with the new traffic light vaccine cert rules a person entering a place will need to;

    1. Provide a vaccination certificate

    2. Provide photo ID to confirm it is their certificate

    3. Scan in with the QR code reader.

    I can't imagine people will put up with this rigmarole for very long.

    Police Commissioner Bullied By Iwi
    Saturday, 4 December 2021, 5:32 pm
    Press Release: ACT New Zealand
    “Police Commissioner Andrew Coster has confirmed that Police have given into demands of iwi rather than upholding the law,” says ACT Leader David Seymour.

    “In an interview with media yesterday, the man in charge of our Police said ‘it’s better to maintain legal checkpoints than have iwi groups operate their own illegal checkpoints instead.’

    “What the Police Commissioner should have said is: ‘The Bill of Rights guarantees freedom of movement. The New Zealand Police will uphold this right, we retain all options for ensuring that is so. If you’re thinking of creating illegal checkpoints, you may find your summer is more indoors that you planned.’

    “In other words, a group of thugs threatened to break the law and instead of arresting them, the Police have thrown their hands up in the air and said – if you can’t beat em, join em.

    “Coster went on to say “Sitting alongside iwi. I’m confident we can avoid illegal activity, which could have realistically turned State Highway One into a carpark. This is about avoiding unlawfulness.”

    “Coster needs to tell us, if this is the new modus operandi of Police. If someone threatens to break the law, instead of stopping them, the Police work with them to make their actions legal.

    “What happens if you happen upon a checkpoint that has no Police staff there, but only iwi? Do you call the police, and when they arrive is the checkpoint suddenly legal?

    “New Zealanders want a Police force that upholds the law, not joins in on lawlessness. We need an assurance from the Commissioner that that’s what will happen.”
    Police with over 35 years service, say Costalot and ImPoto are the worst leadership team they have ever had.

    It really isn't that hard.
    Spent all Friday, Saturday and Sunday out and about doing it - no probs.
    Had it scanned probably 30 times so far.

    You forgot to add 'asking for ID' to match the pass.
    I haven't had that yet.
