Mike Hosking: WE GOT NOWHERE THIS WEEK WITH THE HEALTH EQUITY SCANDALThen the Prime Minister decided that citing other criteria like rural living and poverty somehow made up for the fact race was part of it as well. The critical part he missed or doesn’t get is the simple fact living rurally is not race based. Being poor isn't race based, and they are separate categories So if you are poor and lingering or in the country and lingering, you are prioritised as you should be, you might be Māori, you might not be. Because that isn't the criteria. Race, as a separate criteria, then gives you the leg up so many are now upset about. You get another crack at the queue; you on race alone get one more chance to be advanced. A shot no one other than you gets and that is the bit that is wrong. Anyone can be chronic in their condition, anyone can be poor or rural or old or young or anyone of the other criteria in that we are all equal. But we are not equal on race - and there is your crime….. breakingviewsnz.blogspot.com/2023/06/mike-hosking-we-got-nowhere-this-week.html
