    Kiwis are far too compliant.
    Bloomfield at the podium of truth today spoke mostly in english. Then mid sentence he throws in "fa now" .
    The he made later reference to "fa now" and siad the individuals concerned were NOT Maori. Whats wrong with the English word family, after all he was speaking English.

    Given the tone of the latest articles I've read the Govt is failing to control the media (if that is what you think they do).
    Another failure for the Govt?

    Thank goodness that there are those who are prepared to tell this clueless spin control government where to stick it.

    Plus, you can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time.

    Important, to clear up confusion post 16030 beginning with ......."These are just your interpretations of the treaty etc ......" was posted by BDL, not myself Blue Skies.

    BDL was refuting my previous post but somehow in Ynot's reply post 16030 it appears attributed to me.
    I disagree strongly.

    You can fight it all you want but its not going to make any difference. It's not my narrative, its the way things are.
    It's no longer up for debate, its part of the constitutional arrangements of this country & Iwi see it as a partnership between Maori & the Crown represented by the govt.
    National are no different to Labour on this now.
