    This would be cool if it mattered but the people dont appoint the next parliament, debt collectors do. The previous governments rack up whatever, It doesnt matter who gets in, they have to undo the borrowed money, the continual debt accumulated, be it National or Labour. Its a cycle. All under the guise of Freedom. You better believe at this time Labour will spend the money they borrowed knowing next governments will need to pay it back. Theyll go to town, fulfilling all that they can! Who wants to be in parliament after that? I sure wouldnt. National comes in and nobody wants to them to use our nations natural, truly renewable, resources, Oil and Gas and to some degree Trees. If we do, we must export it to where (mostly) Its NOT China. China has huge natural resources. Nobody wants nuclear in NZ. What do we have left? Even our Dairy industries being attacked. The "climate change" angle. In the 80s this was the Green House Effect and blamed on Refrigerators lul. Do we wanna be self-reliant or in the pockets of others?

    ​​​​@@FrightFall of these movements that are telling all nzers that we are all pieces of garbage that must be aware of our sins from a group of strangers must be rejected. We had lowest religious percentage in NZ 25 years ago and magically rainbow flags and sh1t came along treating us like religious extremists disowning their kids when this was not an issue. If anything everyone else should have learned from us. The fact that this country had to be sustainable for survival reasons for generations and culturally composted and was a nation of farmers and tradespeople thatvhad people come along acting like we needed to be aware of global warming was ridiculous. Im sick of being treated like a villain because of a plastic bag and then condescending remarks on a papee countdown bag saying we can take the paper bag that they are kindly providing as if a paper bag, shipped over on a tanker of oil from china is somehow a favour, nobel and environmentally friendly. As if replacing plastic bags that people did reusw and stash away for thick branded plastic bags for $1.00 were going to make people better off. Removing cage eggs for free range in which apparently it magically costs twice the price and things with less chemicals are three times the price when literally everythinf has a chemical in it. Its not genuine to so things for the environment and make it more expensive and less accessible and then also remove the cheaper options which removes competition and once again goes after poorer people. Also this rubbish of if you buy something they'll donate money to a cause, Id like to buy items because they are good not because they are riddled with guilt and morality, its ridiculous while none of these people care about how much they are fleecing the people around them. We literally cant live in a place acting this vapid and stupid and its got to a point where Id rathee grow my own foos and share and force these idiots to earn their place and respect the buyers and their children. Its got to a point where I dont even think the schools deserve our kids and they need to earn the right to that as well and also have to be competitive and remove zoning. And whatever schools are the most respectful just get more funding and expansion to get more kids. And if every person in the country had more creativity with their money other than real estate there might actually be more jobs, people not losing thousands in moving costs and more independence and more income generated in the country

    Maoris are not indigenous to New Zealand and my husband who is like Winston, a Maori agrees. In fact I think they are not all the same race either. The Maori Party and others want to turn NZ into a country where Maoris are treated like children. It would be like Australia, where there is overreach by the government into the lives of the indigenous people. It happens in the US too. The government needs to realise they work for the people, not the other way round.

    @robintamihere4550: Technically, I don't think Māori are indigenous to New Zealand. I think indigenous means their ancestors arrived here naturally, e.g. by wandering over a land bridge, and they developed the way they are, racially and culturally, here. That's true of the Aborigines in Australia, but I don't think it's true of the Māori in New Zealand. I think they arrived here intentionally, i.e. they were settlers/colonists. And I think racially and culturally they're very much Polynesians, e.g. similarities with language and religion are very evident, and, like other Polynesians, they recognise a common original homeland, Hawaiki. I don't think that's a bad thing, though, and I don't think it's relevant at all, either. They're still the first nations peoples of New Zealand.

Continuing to rely on large corporations for brain dead jobs and sending our own manufacturing off shore supports nothing but a race to the bottom. Enslavement by debt and allowing the country to think that is the only way an economic system works proves how broken the system is. The fact that none of this is taught in schools further supports that previous governments don't want its people to know this, allowing for the cycle of debt to be passed from one generation to the next, and the chains never broken. What this video demonstrates is that the more that we fight amongst ourselves, the REAL changes that need to be made are also never seen.

Many of us grew up side by side with Maori people, we went to school with them, played footy with them, worked with them, went into business with them, went camping with them went fishing and whitebaiting with them and then our kids all grew up together and have done the same thing. We were all one people. A close Maori mate of mine who has strong ties to his iwi descrices these radicals as "plastic Maoris".

    Correct Winston, any one who has read early NZ history.. the likes of Ernest Best & Robert Stout... Stout our first PM in 1842 who lived his life in NZ wrote many books about Maori - a highly learned man his works are very detailed... he died in 1931.... Best born in NZ in mid the 1850's lived amongst Maori and recorded their early history recording 164 generations of a number of early tribes... The vicious activists today (many totally ignorant of their own true tribal histories) have captured and rewritten our history - writing out the Musket wars when Maori wiped out 1/3 of their own population. Robert Stout actually records cannibalism did not end until 1842 and gives a very detailed account of their problems with Maori and changing their taste for cannibalism... he goes into much detail of the tribes and their numbers. It is shocking how Labour has let our history by hijacked and rewritten by activists with their own agendas.. The truth of the matter is Maori were the first colonisers of NZ and early natives of the day fared far worse being colonised by Maori than they did later in 1840 being colonised by the British Crown.

But common sense told a different story, for example, the languagess/culture and physical feature similarities between the people from CHATAM ISLANDS(moriori) and New Zealand(Maori) were to related. Thank goodness DNA tech came around, and those uneducated fools were silenced when Moriori DNA came back as Maori DNA 🤣 I feel bad for you racist bozos that were hoping for the demise of what truly makes NZ unique and that is the Natives culture that is imbaraced by all kiwis 😀👍

    Actually humans are also able to be classified in this way. All humans are indigenous to Africa. That was our centre of origin. Some humans self introduced to other parts of the world. Others stayed in Africa. Those who left inherited DNA from matings with Neanderthals. (Commonly 2-3%). Those who are descended from those who stayed have 0% Neanderthal DNA. The term "indigenous" has been used in a non scientific way. It actually comes from the Latin word "indigena," which combines "in" (meaning "in" or "within") and "gignere" (meaning "to beget" or "to produce"). In science it was used to describe species which evolved in a place. For example, Tuatara are indigenous to New Zealand. Blackbirds are introduced. So all humans in NZ are self introduced mammals.

    The Treaty of Waitangi Act was originally passed in parliament and a tribunal set up to address genuine grievances Maori had for compensation for past injustices and for the land taken from them illegally by past governments. And I think most people in NZ thought that all these claims would be settled and the whole matter tied up within a period of 10 years or so. No one ever dreamed that 50 years later we would still be having new claims being made with further extra ordinary demands that were never discussed or thought about in the past Because of interference by the UN, a body with little understanding of the situation, Maori have become so emboldened that they want to have some control over every aspect of life in NZ coupled with co-governance. As long as we keep giving in to these demands the Maori activists will keep demanding more and more. The Treaty of Waitangi has no relevance in NZ today and needs to be abrogated

Surely by now this should not be a political football, otherwise what the hell has all the Māori in Parliament been doing this whole time. Oh, that's right, lining their pockets. I'm with Winston he knows what he's talking about when it comes to Māori corruption and lies. This should not be a topic for discussion if the dim wits in parliament were there serving their people.

She wasn't around in 2020 no she was virtue signaling stay home save lives and advertising every trend going at the time with her Facebook profile surrounds. She is trained media and a professional at PR and people won't allow her to be questioned or challenged and think she is the saviour. She acts like the single source of truth. Every time I listen to her I get raised hairs as she gives me Jacinda vibes, school marm nanny state feelings. I have learned to trust my gut and not just jump in, I'm now discerning and evaluate everything. It was her that made me look at NZF as I knew when she did that there was no hope for any freedom party to get in. I then embarked on a full investigation journey into NZ First and what I found was soooooo many lies and a real smear campaign by the media and the National Party to cast doubt and ensure his mandate was always weakened. Every accusation is programmed and there's about 6 that get thrown around and the interesting pattern is everyone uses the same words. I have been able to debunk every single one of them. Remember those that are persecuted the most are usually the ones fighting back. He has been fighting against the beast his entire career and kiwis are too stupid and sucked into propaganda to see it. We have an awful lot of things we take for granted that we owe him a great deal of gratitude for. Now we know the wasted votes then get apportioned to the remaining seats propping up the two party system we cannot afford to split our votes and weaken the resistance that is the only party that can get in. Remember NZF has a party full of Freedom types membership and candidates. This is the final chance for this country.

    Yes - a treaty in two different languages with different understandings and interpretations, signed nearly 200 years ago and people today think they know what was meant or understood by those at the time. How ridiculous is that! The Treaty is outdated and meaningless because of its duplicity and needs to be scrapped. The Maori "elite" need to stop indoctrinating common Maori people with this insulting "victim-of-colonialism" mentality and, instead, start empowering them to function in our modern New Zealand society, just as 10,000 Maori are successfully doing right now in the U.K. We are all colonists here. Collins Dictionary: colony (ˈkɒlənɪ) n. Word forms: plural -nies 1. a body of people who settle in a country distant from their homeland but maintain ties with it. 2. the community formed by such settlers.

    Winston raises a good point but saying Maori origins are Cook Islands is incorrect. DNA and Physical traits have indicated a distance far further than that, namely Atayal origin. Just pointing it out. Maori are as people/Humans/Homo sapien sapiens, are in other countries, including the English, being puppeteered. Im afraid this is rife (and Life), super wealthy/private sector play both sides with divide and conquer their mentality. The bigger picture is to rid the green back as over 90% of the worlds funny money and bring back self-reliant as a WHOLE country. This involves what Vision has said, use our minerals, use our Oil etc All we do now is prop the private sector up via USA by borrowing money in the "climate change" narraive. This is a rinse and repeat thing and itll ruin all of us. Fact is this malarkey with our governments in the future is from blood money which we need to pay back. Where do people think Labour (whoevers current) got their money? From thin air? It was borrowed, for us to remain in perpetual debt to the untouchably wealthy. Come on, currently you lose money using things deemed "renewable" energy because its not viable, its not even a 1:1 ratio. Infrastructure needs money, money needs to be borrowed. Debt is created, it needs to be paid back. Those youre in debt to run you and your policies as they give you stipulations you adhere to. This is wgat we call in every day life a Credit system. If you know what happened in 1991 you can put the dots together too, and before that, the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance, 1955. Whenever these super wealthy and their asset companies come along theyll use any avenue exploitively. It just so happens the angle here is Maori cultural yadda yadda. Thats not the only one though but its easy to pin "Reasons" on. Leave this in your mind, BlackRock Asset managers run assets in the region of 9 TRILLION dollars. Who do you think they answer to, for example. edit: case in point, get how divisive even this comment section is being. Look at the bigger picture. And dont forget we have a 2016 monkey on our back called the Paris agreement. Signed but not sealed, we can pull out of it, we can wriggle out. Go under the radar as Australia do with China. Id forgotten about it and it was a terrible agreement for us.

Maori descentants are a great people, descendants of the European settlors are great folk too, not to mention the remnants of the peaceful and indigineous Moriori! Lets forget about the various waka that landed on these shores by different people at different times. Can we not instead embrace, "tahi ka pai ake tatou" (together we are better)? In conclusion, our beautiful national anthem has the phrase, "God defend New Zealand"! May it be so.

    If there is, and as a maori male in my mid 60s l can see someone such as George Soros funding fomentation of vthat ideology. I seriously started to notice those offshoot American liberal leaning ideological influences popping up here in New Zealand. Jacinda Aderns association with the WEF is also something New Zealanders needed to be conscious of. Klaus Schwab and his cronies can exert influence in circles that can have added negative impact on the local economy. Groups such as Blackrock are another looking to exert influences that can affect local markets.

    Excellent interview, Michael . Your quick thinking was fun listening on talk back. What a good argument, N.Z. First has made ! I was Labour, Greens, but after listening to this interview, I've studied all the political policies and am now voting Natioal - N.Z First. Cheers David.

    Your pionts are a concern that comes up often. To purchase New Zealand, the true cost would be in the triIions of dollars. I think one way to be honest and respectful about land payments past , now and the future would be ; Every time a purchase of land is made, either government, private, or commercial That a 5% fee is paid to the local Maori tribe. This payment would be made for every purchase forever and ever , On going. This would eventually repay the real cost of land stolen or underpaid after a few hundred years and offer a rent for the land in a way of tribute in the future. This money would give financial independence to Maori and enable them to plan their own destiny . I spock to Willy Jackson on the topic as an idea, and he and others have said it would solve the financial arrangements. David Anderson Canterbury

    tell me how removing Maori from UNDRIP isn't tyranny, tell me how trying to strip Maori of their indigeneity isn't tyranny, tell me how suppressing the Maori language while legislating the English language into education for over 200 years isn't tyranny, Tell me how outlawing Maori facial tattoos isn't tyranny

    @MatuaKiwi The thinking or culture had to change to ; Yes, the land was borrowed or stolen. Now we have to fix the wrong. I believe in us all being equal, but I am angry at the stolen maori lands or bad deals. To solve a fix a wrong , sorry is not enough. We must be truly honest and genuine in our new vision as a mixed peoples. 5% of all purchases should be made to local Maori tribes on going, for ever. One to eventually pay back the true amount Of purchases, which would be trillions of dollars. Then, as a rent for my relatives Planting themselves in to New Zealand. To me there has to be a two way respect. Well, never have full and final settlement otherwise. Our family arrived in 1870s , pushed off there farm land as tenants. David Anderson Canterbury
