CORRECT HISTORY
New Zealand is a divided society and, as such, it is not a democracy.
People who were here before Maori arrived were decimated by natural disasters, such as tsunami, volcano and “natural selection”. However, some did survive, and have been drawn into Maori society.
A recent hour-long documentary acknowledges this, but it has been ignored by our socalled authorities!
Why? Because it is not politically expedient, that’s why!
The media, parliamentarians, educational staff, Department of Conservation and even the members of the legal profession ignore this and, over the past 30-odd years, have been trying to write this out of our history.
Sooner or later, New Zealand will become a republic, and this anachronism should be sorted out and canned before then. The sea bed now belongs to “somebody”.
Next on the agenda is fresh water. What next?
One well-known businessman was charged because he wanted to change a window.
You can guarantee it will not stop there.
That there were people here before Maori is a certainty. Why aren’t these people paid out handsomely?
Now don’t think that I am getting at Maori elite. I am not, but while our “powers that be” dance to their tune, they will keep it up.
This is the price of political power that we are currently paying.
Let’s have a referendum on whether we should continue to “front up”.
New Zealand’s future will remain cloudy (Aotearoa) until her past has been unearthed.
