ANGLICISED WELLINGTON STREET BEING CORRECTED TO TE REOWellington's council has found some common ground - on correcting the naming of a street. Waripori St in Berhampore will now become known as Te Wharepouri St, after a Māori chief of the 1800s, after Wellington City councillors voted unanimously for the change. Technically, Te Wharepouri has always had a Wellington street named after him..... www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/120042850/anglicised-wellington-street-being-corrected-to-te-reo

More make-it-up-as-you-go PC nonsense. Every letter in those maori "words" has been STOLEN from the English alphabet. And as for streets/roads/avenues/ ...another example of CULTURAL APPROPRIATION...stolen from the Europeans. I would say maori are the worst OFFENDERS of cultural appropriation I have ever seen.
