TREATY FEEDING FRENZY
History attributes the immortal words by Winston Churchill -"Never in the field of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few" - as a gesture of British gratitude for the valiant efforts of RAF pilots in World War II. But now a school of contemporary thought reckons the implementation of those words perfectly describes the unfettered feeding frenzy at the Waitangi treaty settlement trough. If the cap fits, wear it.

RACIAL DIVIDE
Peter Dey suggests that working Maori have not been more disadvantaged since the grievance industry was born in 1975. How does he explain the latest statistics that show Maori fill more than 50 per cent of the available beds in our prisons while Maori are only 15 per cent of our population?
In spite of the billions of dollars of taxpayers’ money that has gone into corporate Maori, during the past 40 years, it is Maori who fill the largest percentage of all negative statistics in the Justice, Education, Health and Welfare ministries. The law changes and Government acts created and actioned in 1975 have proven to be in my opinion, the downfall of the ordinary New Zealand citizen.
Some educated radical Maori, with the assistance of universities, culturally biased education, politicians and the legal system have created a racial divide that is a blot on this fair land.

AN IMPUDENT LIE
"In the Kingdom of the Blind, the one-eyed man is King. And he that does not know his own history is at the mercy of every lying windbag." — outgoing Governor-General, Lord Bledisloe in his 1922 farewell address.
New Zealand is increasingly referred to in the public square as Aotearoa, or Aotearoa New Zealand. This appears on our passports, the letterheads and signage of government departments, our new hank notes, and has even been used on postage stamps, in larger print than our country's real name.
Fellow author Bruce Moon describes Aotearoa as"a quite recent upstart with scant justification, if any at all, to be used as our country's name".This fiction deserves to be mercilessly deconstructed…..
