if cogovernance is nothing to be feared, then why cant we have an open debate on it and why is anyone who criticises it attacked as a racist?

JT's recent ravings on race based beliefs is odd. He claims he HATES pakeha yet the majority of his bloodline is of European decent. Does he HATE his mother who is of European decent. Does he HATE over 50% of himself. That all contributes to one very confused, unstable puppy. It can't be said any other way.

The next election will be a referendum on whether we choose our leadership based on genetics, or merit
NO SUCH THING in the treaty, this is a blatant lie, this is creating a two tier country, maori and the rest, Individual maoris in positions is one thing, BUT NOT a separate group.Labour will be gone if the persist with this.

My ancestors long long ago were from the UK, I have no rights, no claim, no anything to British soil even though I have English ethnicity! Something to think about eh John……

John Tamiihere is of what ethnicity. It's naive to think there's anything democratic about Co Governance or the current Labour Govt backing away from it. Campbell and most probably any number of our Maori brothers and sisters in public service would want anything other than Co Governance and Three Waters, such has been impetus given them by this duplicitous and divisive Labour regime in recent time. However NZers oppose these moves, it's just not the kiwi way.

Let's just ;eave it as it is Tamihere or are you afraid you will lose dollars and power. Equality is nothing to be feared and that's how it should be. Stop lying.
Government backing away is one thing, corporations of all industries and sectors and even state-owned enterprises continuing to act under the co-governance agenda is another.

Why the voice is happening at the same time in Australia
Co-governance is nothing to be feared? Really? Let's have a debate and a referendum on it then, so all the people, who will no doubt be convinced by the extremely rational arguments of the Maori Party, can vote for it. What a load of crap this guy talks, and Jack Lame would never challenge him, of course.

One option one escape: real Democracy / real equal opportunity / one person one vote / vote on solid economic policy, make economy work and be fair - no need to break NZ assets into "tribal possessions" and pretend it is equity or moral redemption when is just one type of racial discrimination replaced by another - both wrong - just now we also tear down Democracy in the process. How many died in history across the globe so now we can even talk about Democracy? Democracy grants equity, social injustice is ourselves failing at Democracy - just do it right don't change it. IT IS NOT about Maori vs. Pakeha ANY MORE, stop living in the 19 Century - or you are just a big fish in a bowl.

Quite a history about the Maori - put the Inca's or the Aztecs to shame in degeneration. Outcast during the 13th century as weaker primitive Neolithic people by the invading Hawaiians & Tongans (Maori were from the original wave of primitive Asian/Melanesians pushed right out across the Eastern Pacific by successive stronger more advanced races coming from the west). They were outcast on rafts and some floated up in NZ stranded for 500 years. The weaker were pushed down to the South Island or Chathams etc. So the South Island Maori (had their own language) were the weakest of the weak. They were captured and eaten as 'Slave flesh' by the northern Maori doing raids. (Well they all ate each other - 80% of Maori pre European were dark skinned easily fattened slaves farmed and eaten by a lighter skinned 'Ariki' thin wiry elite royal caste). So it was with some righteousness as well as British cunning that they armed the southern Maori who then with muskets launched a genocidal war on the north.. That plus measles & flu halved the Maori population and removed most of the elite. The British then liberated the slaves and outlawed cannibalism. The northern Maori fought with the British against the south bad west Maori 'rebels'. The Maori sued for peace and a treaty was signed that removed all sovereignty and made them subjects to the English crown where the English would protect them from each other. Land could only be sold to or via the Crown. Maori could live on their reservations with native custom but none did. The treaty of Waitangi is strikingly clear in that the Maori cede sovereignty completely and become citizens of Great Britain - all 3 clauses lock that in. Nothing in today's 'Maori' culture is authentic. The music - all European (Maoris did not have tonal music, the songs are missionary tunes or introduced - Poi dance is from Islands and Stick dance from old Malaya. The carvings and art - all European - Arabesques that was the fashion at the time. Original Maori had limited dash carving and no painting of objects. No written language - all the syntax & grammar plus vowel inflection is European. No technology - some lagoon canoes and wood or stone Neolithic tools. No food sources - like pigs or crops - they left that all behind, all they had was a weak inbred fox (now extinct), some rats and a weak dismal pacific yam. They ate out all the bird-life, didn't know how to farm the sea as were island people and so they turned to societal cannibalism. Today - no full blood or half blood left. No genuine tradition and almost all are offspring of Maori slave females sold to white settlers for muskets or food. -So more fake than the 'Sioux' or 'Cherokee' or 'Crow' who had at least retained some genuineness about who they were and their history. -Everything you 'saw or experienced' is Fake. A totally convected disneyfied tokenistic set of inventions fueled by a grievance culture of mixed-race imposters fetishing a false past bad history because it pays benefits.

Co-Governance if successful could benefit everyone. Most Maori will be happy and not being ruled by Pakeha therefore could see crime come down for Maori. If other races have a choice to pick which Co Governance they want to be with that is another advantage. It's not all doom and gloom like some people want you to think. More choices for everyone.
