WE ALL HAVE TINO RANGATIRATANGA, THE RIGHT TO SELF-DETERMINE, NOT ONLY MĀORI – DAVID SEYMOUR
Sadly, there are groups out there who want to nullify the debate. Even those convinced the Treaty Principles Bill will not become law are determined to stop it being discussed. They know allowing this debate means it is only a matter of time before the bill’s logic prevails and each person in this country has equal rights.
I hear those who seek to stir up fear and division saying that the Treaty Principles Bill will strip Māori of your mana, your taonga and your reo.
That is simply not true. You need to ask, who’s telling me this, and why? If you don’t believe that, go read the bill. Read my statements about the importance of te reo. Look at Act’s record of voting for every Treaty Settlement.
The mission of this bill, and Act, is empowerment of all New Zealanders.....
