We continue to do so, in spite of the crowds who fawn & adulate, having fallen for Personality Politics. We continue to do so, in spite of being vilified, segregated, fired, bankrupted and injured. The world is beginning to see, or at least get glimpses of the current despairing state of our once haven-like country; we just wish many many many more New Zealanders would too!

He said they all died for nothing, It's only because of these vets, we have fundamental safeguards for humanity like the Nuremberg code of ethics & our bill of Rights here in NZ and others around the world. The Race part of this is complete bullshit as it ends up hurt everyone no matter of their Race within NZ and is disgusting. She's trying hard to break the One Country One People mentality most Kiwis have in NZ, We built this country together for all our races,, So why can't we highlight that fact instead of trying to divide the nation. Education is a Massive issue in NZ & sadly has been weaponized as they state Maori are doing worse than the other races, Which I say is bullshit as every race is being failed by our Public system, So how about we make one system that benefits all. The One thing that worries me is Public Assents and safeguards protecting them from Government needs massive focus in my point of view as we need to lock these down for future generations of Kiwis.

I expect if Labour gets in again in next year's election, the bright and financially independent will sell up and move to Oz. Time to get rid of socialism, leftist and liberals.

There are structural differences in Australias favour that hopefully hinder such extreme and dangerous reform but its still primarily in the hands of a population that needs to be more broadly equipped to understand this and wanting to be fully engaged.

Thank you for this for this fantastic talk. Here in New Zealand the changes are becoming more apparent daily in regards to Maori , Shure a bit of culture is fine, very colourful and adds interest, but the degree in which NZers are having to adapt and digest Maori culture is too over the top . Maori are a small group of people who were part of the early settlement of many different races to come to these shores. The Maoriori , the Chinese the Spanish and the list goes on, but they are not truly indigenous of this country. The Maori were canabals and war mongering individuals , the European settlers showed that a more peaceful coexistence was possible, and it has worked up until the Ardern Government came into power.This Government has allowed a small minority of people to adopt a victim attitude and that all their problems have been caused by colonisation, and that we the non Maori are going to pay for it. People are leaving in droves to live in other more hospitible Countries ,Personally l do not blame them. This country has gone rotten starting from the top.God help us all.

[@foggycoast]

Ardern used White Island as a manufactured crisis. It was a tragic accident of nature which affected a small number of victims. It was not a national crisis like an earthquake. Ardern used it to grandstand on the national and international scene. She did the same thing with the Grace Millane murder (a young British tourist) a year earlier, and she has the audacity to apologise on behalf of NZ for the actions of one individual murderer, so she could grandstand on the international scene. In fact it was again terrible bad luck for this young tourist who had arrived the day before to date a complete stranger she had met online who turned out to be a murderer. The tourism industry was not responsible, NZ was not responsible for the actions of one individual. NZ police did an excellent job of solving this relatively easy crime, gathering evidence and charging the suspect. The rest was pure Ardern theatre. She was a good crisis leader when she visited the CHCH mosque and wore a scarf, which is the respectful thing to do when visiting people in their place of worship and in mourning, and at the memorial. But she did not lead the country's response. NZ as a whole was horrified by this crime perpetrated by a foreigner, and mourned with the victims' families. NZers are compassionate, she didn't make us that way or lead us to care about innocent victims. We've always been perfectly capable of doing that. In fact, NZ is exceptionally good at collective mourning, probably due to our Maaori roots. Again, she used it to grandstand on the international scene, flew to Paris to hobnob with heads of states and tech magnates to set up an internet censorship policy. She used her standing to hide the abject failure of the Police's firearms licensing process which allowed a foreigner with no family in NZ, no work history, no referees who had ever met him in real life to get a firearms licence after spending only 2 months in NZ. Here's some of Ardern's genius before the mosque shooting... www.stuff.co.nz/national/christchurch-shooting/111438784/changes-to-gun-law-overseen-by-jacinda-ardern-described-as-crazy

One of the many pathetic aspects of this Govt is that they now require Councils to implement the "Principles of the Treaty", which are not actually known what they are. There is no obligation for any non-Govt department or entity or business to have any obligation to the Treaty. The Treaty was with the Crown, end of debate. As for the claim that Sovereignty was not conceded by Maori, that is totally incorrect. Under the same International law that states the Treaty is a legal document, it also states that if a Treaty is not ratified then that treaty is only legal if Sovereignty is ceded. The Treaty was not ratified. Source is from the "Laws of Government in New Zealand" written by numerous NZ lawyers and law professors. I printed the first edition over 20 years ago and it made fascinating reading.

I learned more about what is really happening here in this presentation than I have in the past several , from the Dominion Post, the capital city's newspaper. I knew Three Waters was awful, but as always, it is bureaucratic fine points that deliver the undiluted poison. And the 40% figure for functional illiteracy and innumeracy - well, that's up by around ten points from when I last calculated those metrics from a PISA report more than two decades ago (the performance measures are much harder to decode than they used to be). Which is one of the cardinal reasons why the current regime is not subject to proper scrutiny. The general lack of awareness about how bad things are becoming will not broadly register until catastrophic levels of damage have been done. We are turning into a peasantry. But, of course, a peasantry with the ability to speak a couple of hundred words of Maori.

Who are these people who live in dark shadows with an apparent huge influence to bring forward for public approval a show pony prime minister with a feel good demeanor, of a popular school head mistress, like its she that knows best for everyone - maybe that is the role of leadership? Yet, when alternatives are considered the choices are few as are our country's great leaders. Now, it's lawyers and economists, corporate types who know the cost of everything and the value of nothing. As the general population becomes an irrelevance courted only in the few weeks before election day, the self interest and parochialism of candidates, each three years, is sickening and leads to even more cynicism and disengagement from the processes as each election looms large each three years.

The most houses NZ ever built was 34 thousand in one year in the early 70’s. This was achieved by mainly simple homes mass produced in factories then transported to site. This from the NZ initiative report, which I used as research for a Unitec paper. 100,000 was a joke of a suggestion, everyone knew it. But as bad as labour is as government, National is in opposition and didn’t know how to attack labour successfully from the opposition position. The biggest issue as alluded to is the Ardern “Be kind”, Government. Ripped up the 1990 human rights act. Where it states...No person shall be forced to take a medical procedure. Yet the vaccine was made compulsory, mandate isn’t a choice. People don’t realise how dangerous that precedent sets.

It has left us without the inherited experience of persevering though a time when the future isn't certain. We are not the 'get-on-with-it' or 'she'll-be-right' type peoples we claimed ourselves to be. The Christchurch Earthquakes proved that to me already.

Thanks Oliver, I'm a Kiwi and live in NZ and this is by far the worst PM & government NZ has ever had. The priority under this government is to roll out as much policy as possible to determine your rights & funding based on your by chance partial ancestry (Apartheid = where a minority race under government policy has superior treatment). The majority of foreign press rate her on her personality and not delivery. For more than three decades, the Swiss Institute for Management and Development (IMD) has compiled annual rankings of competitiveness for 63 of the world’s most important countries. Back in 2017 when Labour took power, New Zealand ranked #16 - ahead of Australia at #21. Five years on, New Zealand has fallen to #31, while Australia is now ranked #19. Over the past few years, NZ has plunged in economic performance, falling from 22nd to 47th place. Government efficiency has also deteriorated markedly from 7th to 17th place. Consumer confidence in New Zealand now stands at the lowest level since Westpac’s Consumer Confidence survey began in 1988. And, perhaps most damningly, for the first time, a majority has a negative 5-year outlook on the economy. We have very high inflation, more than doubled national debt, have a cost-of-living crisis and hospitals in disarray etc. Jacinda’s government hasn’t delivered anything other than empathy; which doesn’t get us anywhere.

Oliver summed up New Zealand's predicament's and Adern to a tee but I beg to differ on not calling the Adern government a communist dictatorship. This current NZ Labour government has successfully divided the people of New Zealand with its separatism and segregation policies. There are no coalition agreements in the Treaty of Waitangi which states that we are to be one people but the Adern government have divided the people into two races. The comments on education were precisely correct. The news media have been mangling the English and Te Reo Maori in speech and documentation such as the News and weather. We get the TVNZ Maori weather and news read entirely in Maori and the when the English news and weather comes on the presenters speak in gibberish Maori/English as a method of coercion to drum the Maori language into peoples heads which is causing more racism. As Oliver stated the majority of school leavers can't read or write the English language and can't count past the fingers on one hand so why push Te Reo Maori into children as part of this Adern Labour government agenda.
