I won't make excuses either, being maori has never held me back working hard and taking care of myself.

I'm very similar. I acknowledge that a lot of things aren't fair for Māori, but I'm not going to let that define or be a hindrance. I just know that I have to work harder than others to get ahead. Is it fair? No, but it's reality and you learn a lot of good lessons from it. This is what Winston is trying to say. If our top sports teams are full of Māori who have reached the pinnacle of their codes, then what did they do to get there? Hard work and determination. They clearly didn't let being Māori prevent them, it probably fuelled them to work harder so they can be a role model. That's at least what I try to do for my kids.

Imagine Winston or Seymour. In the end, life is only made better by the people you love/have around you. Maybe if Māori had Sovereignty of Aotearoa, laws could be made to break corrupt “Deep State” connections and allow all people to live well.

Maybe not. Tainui needs that money, so that they can buy more land. But hey, I've been thinking. And I've come up with a brilliant public money scheme which I thought I would call "rates" if it ever got launched. This scheme (if it ever got off the ground) would impose a type of tax or contributory levy that would require ALL New Zealand-Aotearoa land asset property owners to pay an annual amount to a central collection agency each. It would be based on the nominal value of land and of improvements to that land. I think that this scheme could take a lot of pressure off various local authorities which appear to struggle to pay for regional and district infrastructure which (at the moment) is only covered by motor vehicle parking fees, parking infringement notices and revenues from dog and cat licences.

It is quite concerning that someone so blatantly racist and unintelligent is in parliament. He has no idea about the structure of trusts and lacks any basic knowledge of economics. While a wealth tax in principle makes sense, perhaps something like TOP is proposing is more palatable for the masses. Also it is misleading for him to keep talking about maori life expectancy being a few years shorter than for "pakeha". Maori life expectancy has improved hugely over the years. In 1840, Maori life expectancy was 30 years and today it is over 73 years. Pakeha have added on over 40 years of Maori life expectancy during their so called brutal colonising. And the gap is still closing between Maori and "pakeha" to this day. These are the facts Jack needs to counter with. In terms of health outcomes and incarceration rates there is never a mention of personal responsibility or predisposing cultural factors. It is always someone elses fault isn't it... Also TeWhatu Ora is failing at every level. I would know because I am a doctor working in this crumbling system. I would urge people to get private health insurance over the next decades as it will only get worse. I want the best for NZ but the nation is ever more devided and clear unchallenged racist rhetoric like that from Rawiri is not helping. I urge people to carefully read party policies prior to voting

Great to hear him talk about tax fraud . The 7 billion.
I was wondering about maori business tax rate 17% is that paying a fair share some big corporations out there owned by by Maori business,if everyone is paying a fair share then the out should be better for everyone.
When someone has started a business in NZ and is paying out of their own pockets to employees to work should they really pay taxes. I don't believe they should because without these people there are no jobs and if they make profits that is their business and perks.

Easy to blame others for your flaws but step up and own your own flaws, racism works both ways dividing a nation is the easiest way to conquer it. Have accountability for your choices and actions in life. Do Maori as a culture value having unbroken families, being a productive, law abiding citizen, getting a good education or the drive to be successful in life, or focus on injustice and a give me what you have attitude????

Afraid that those are the statistics ....more personal accountability for some needed. I don't think Colonialism has held back Maori and if some don't agree with living by those standards then why do they measure their so called lack of progression by it.

Weak. You've oversimplified what are complex sociopolitical and socio-economic factors that are a reality whether you like it or not. The only thing I'd say is, pull your fkn head in, where have you been? What a joke 🤣

What "Give me what you have attitude?"? So you're suggesting that addressing historic injustices and seeking equitable treatment are mutually exclusive with valuing family, education, or striving for success? WT actual F are on about chap? 🤣 That's nothing more than a false dichotomy. Resorting to stereotypes to frame a complex and diverse culture is WEAK.

Have we not spent the last 50 years trying to right our so called injustices, and $3.7 Billion. When Maori Colonized NZ 200 years before the white man. They commited genocide they enslaved, and wiped out an entire race of people the Moriori. They have never once been brought to account for this but like to focus all there injustices on the white man. I was merely stating basic fundamentals as to why maori as a people are over represented in all negative statistics in NZ. In the modern world Success is not for the lazy, affluence is for people who believe in education and working hard, you are less likely to commit crime in a functional family, and to bring your children up that $ doesn't fall out of the sky, and what the world actually owes you is "absolutely nothing". If you want something in this world set goals work hard and you can achieve them. Or keep playing the victim and hope someone else will pay for you to have a better life, we all have a choice!@@PaKa-kj3rj
Is wearing spectacles a prerequisite for being a warrior or bad genetics?
"Well the [Maori genetic makeup] is stronger in me and I've got a whole lot of genetics in me".... an extra chromosome, perhaps?
Should be retitled 'NZQ&A: Comedy Special'
Racist idiots like Rawiri shouldn't be allowed a place in parliment. The fact that Maori have their own party in the first place is pretty backwards. Maori are part of New Zealand and all New Zealanders should have equal rights. If you want to move on from old grievances you could have much better results for all New Zealanders but activists like Rawiri are benefitting from bleeding the government dry and never sharing their wealth with the maori who need it.

Wow. What a radical view. How do we obtain it
It’s simple logic that Māori park should be our leaders.
Can’t believe what he said about ww2 statistics. Unreal
Is this guy for real? Because 50% of prisoners are Maori, Pakeha must be doing something wrong?!
Why penalize people that are trying to create jobs. With the crime rate I hope Te Pati Maori don't forget there are victims/maori that outcomes were not fairly looked at in court while the perpatrators walked free with a grin on their faces. What are they going to do about that? Hopefully they are not going to be soft on crime like Labour has been especially for victims.
TBH i am sick of this divisive politics in NZ its just not good for the fabric of society
The Nats need to pull the plug on this crazy adventure by racist Maori
Ok Rawiri that means all those iwi own business to that are making millions and one is close to a billion in assets tax them to.... Its our own personal responsibility to take care of our health just like you who says he's decolonized yet had a health system stomach stample that's improved your health.
Nice cowboy hat
I am 100% pakeha english, my wife is 100% pakeha 7th generation kiwi. 4 of my Mokopuna, whakapapa to Tuhoe but their fathers are missing in action, their Koro is buried at the Lake. They live with us along with their mother and are educated in their Maori roots. They are safe from gang influence why they stay with us.

Do the super rich Māori tribes pay company tax, no. Your scheme is flawed already. Also how come since Europeans came to NZ, Māori live longer than before. They need to see the doctor, get your vaccinations, eat the right food, drink less achohol, live in areas where there is a hospital, not Poverty Bay area, don’t belong to gangs and use drugs such as Cannabis. Common sense required. Don’t commit the crime and you won’t be in jail, simple really.
Maori health need to look at life styles and the kind of food you put in your mouth and do regular exercise
I feel this fellow does not have credibility as a politician.
Yes they do more for airani than maori
"Give me taxpayer's money and land." Why? "Because I'm Maori"... Whow. What great reasoning. "Tangata whenua"... So what.
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ✅️
