LIES ABOUT HISTORY I've been thinking ... (didn't we have a politician who did that once? Wonders will never cease!) A Maori friend of mine, John, told me that a Maori woman of great renown once said that all pakeha should leave the country and go back to the countries where they came from.
John was in a perplexed state of mind you see, half of him was Maori and the other half was Portuguese Which half of him was to go and which half was to stay? Yet another friend, Jim, said he was glad that the English got here when they did, or else "we would have eaten each other up by now".
And still the lies about Maori history are being taught at schools, and we will continue to "shell out" forever more because of it. It seems that there is nobody in this country who wants the truth to he told to our school children, or indeed anybody, so why not go cap in hand to the law lords at the Privy Council, apologise to them on behalf of the Helen Clark government, who "threw them out" (she did not get a mandate from us to do that), and ask them to sort out the lies from the truth.
I am sure that we would get an unbiased opinion. It may be costly but not any-where as bad as paying up forever for something which should not be our concern. KEVAN G MARKS Kaipara
