"highly regarded" ? By who? The maori troughers? The Waitangi Tribunal is a racist Kangaroo Court that does not allow evidence to the contrary. Why not let a historian with the truth as his/her aim be appointed instead of a trougher sympathiser? How anyone that looks so much like a cartoon hippopotamus and is so ignorant and racist gets such a say, makes an ass of the government. NZ................. embracing the 3rd world since 1975.
