DAVID SEYMOUR 'A POLITICAL IDIOT' FOR PURSUING TREATY PRINCIPLES BILL, TUKU MORGAN SAYS
"You've got a political idiot here, who is trying to modernise a document that will make the 1840 signing a nullity," Morgan says.
"It's an attack on an agreement that was enshrined in a trusting way by those Rangatira in 1840."
If the bill did go beyond a first reading, Morgan says the resulting protest action would be at a level "never seen in the history of this country before".
"There are those of us who ... will not sit still and remain idle," he says.
"If this bill is passed, and it goes beyond the first reading, there'll be hell to play, simple as that."
"We're an iwi now who has economic power, nearly $2.4 billion of assets.
"We're capable of doing what we need to do to protect that which is our own and protect the future of our young ones. Because in the end, it's the young ones who we serve."......
