TIME TO STOP TALKING!
There is a considerable amount of discussion on this page and in many other forums about the path that this country is taking towards apartheid. It is clear that ALL National members of parliament are comfortable with this direction, as the paper thin majority would mean any one of them could derail this process. It speaks volumes about the lack of integrity, lack of courage and surfeit of greed and ambition that each of these members has, that no challenge to this destructive course has arisen.
The various maori groups are more than willing to milk the system for as much as they can, while they can. This is hardly surprising as their gains should halt after the next general elections. They can't be blamed for what's happening either. Their teams of unscrupulous lawyers are eternally coming up with new twists to keep the claims process going, while they line their own pockets. The everyday maori believes something will come his way and fails to see that he is only cannon fodder, whose greatest value is as the face of poverty and crime. This ensures the unthinking masses will continue to assuage their feelings of guilt by accepting the validity of yet another claim, while tribal leaders have everything to gain by keeping the money and not improving the lot of their people.
The flaws in all the arguments and Waitangi Tribunal rulings are obvious, but to dare to point these out is to guarantee a torrent of racial invective, both from those who are maori when it suits them as well as their pale skinned, guilt-ridden fellow-travellers.
The effect of continuing to accept maori myths, legends, falsified and mis-interpreted history and plain lies has been to see the well documented history of this country being re-written and presented to everyone from school kids up as accepted facts. This process started immediately Palmer constructed the ill-defined principles in an effort to shore up the maori seats for Labour, with the result that there has now been some forty years of indoctrination. Sadly, the majority of the population that have stated they are opposed to the ongoing treaty claims, are also too lazy to do any research, and have come to accept, at least in part, the nonsense that has been served up. They do not even question the stupidity of re-aligning a motorway or passing over ownership of a lake on the basis of the presence of a taniwha, or gifting a forest because of the presence of a spirit. Now a river has been deemed to be a living person and the maori living along it have become instant millionaires as reward for looking after it. There has been not a word, that I have read anyway, about this crass nonsense.
Maori are permitted to enter professional university courses with grades so low that european students would not be accepted. It is probably correct to assume that if you stated a preference for treatment by a European doctor because you were aware of the possibility that the maori doctor was of lower standard or skill level, then you would be accused of racism. Maori culture is propped up by millions of dollars for their language, their medicine and anything else they can prise out of the taxpayer, and there seems to be no end in sight.
Our ship of state is manned by fools, with a self-serving opportunist at the helm. We must make sure it is headed for the rocks!
In every referendum to do with various claim items, the response has been around eighty per cent opposed. The task is to utilise that opposition so as to stop this treaty greed in it's tracks and to begin the process of unwinding the apartheid laws.
In October we will be voting for our local councils. There has been a good deal of polarising discussion already about the councils who have already put unelected maori into council positions, or have tried to. Other councils are likely to elect people who are supportive of this type of action.
The various candidates must be asked to state clearly whether they would vote for the inclusion of unelected maori if the matter came before them. Their responses must be made public. The eighty per cent who have demonstrated their opposition would have only themselves to blame if they then voted such a person onto the council. Now is the time to get on the phone and start asking your candidates the question. Hopefully, a message will also get to the government that they will be in line for the same treatment next year.
