POLICIES & CULTURE

That is because the Māori non Māori distinction is fast breaking down.
How many people are there that are half or more Māori.
The idea that anyone with any Māori ancestry is a Māori is absurd I refuse to accept someone who is 1/32nd Māori as having a different identity rights and culture to myself.
It’s just identity politics Māori culture has gone. Culture is a way of life, no one can live in New Zealand now the way Māori lived prior to 1840.
Anyone who thinks they can is in fantasy land.
Māori culture as it’s presented is sanitised idealised and detached from the economic social and technological basis in which Māori lived .its a fantasy
