Identity politics is the root of all of this. Who you identify as, no matter if it's Maori or NZ European, is subjective. You are not objectively either of those things. You are just you. A human being. An individual. Even those are just words. It is the labelling and social constructs resolving around these labels that bring forth these problems in identity politics. We are all one. Viewing each other as separate based on skin colour or genetics is what is causing division, and thus these issues.

[@tarawaukeri8928]

As true as this may be friend, there are some that have benefited from unjust past activities, which also result in an anticipated future of unjust. I've met many indigenous from the south island that did not receive the government payouts given to Ngai Tahu.

Well put Winston. It is time for the clear definition of the Treaty.

[@meofnz2320]

@@MatuaKiwi There is no source. However we can look at the Māori population in 1900 which had fallen to less than 50,000 and look at the number of people who identify as Māori today which is just under 1 million. Although the birth rate was high (about 6) for the next sixty years, it then fell to roughly just over 2 till the present day. If we say 120 years is four generations a rough estimate of population increase without intermarriage would be somewhere under 300,000. Logically then, to bring the population up to 1 million the numbers must be made up by intermarriage. Hence my opinion. I hasten to add that I respect anyone who identifies as Māori regardless of ancestry. But I believe we’re not as far apart as many believe.

There are larger cities out there that are better run than this country, with the resources we have New Zealand could be a great little country for its people if we had a political party that genuinely had New Zealand's best interests to heart.

And also speaks as someone who is actually normal and not just looking for opportunities based off of one race.

How can anyone feel "empowered" when they come together as a family when theyve all been told since theyre kids to feel sorry for someone of a specific race which is basically just enabling bullying for the people who have to feel bad for someone all the time so teaches a lot of people in oir society to not defend themselves which is dangerous as leaders in a nation, that a kid is told they are bad so they grow into demoralised partners which is bad for families when they break up, be told that their partner is pathetic and needs help which is bad because then they will never feel in control or will use this to abuse the partner through the guise of always needing help, so much of this goes against all my morals and Im descended of good colonials and have seen our democratic insitutions break down over the years and every single event of this has always started in this country. All these ideas of putting morality onto kids and people at such a young age is about as demented as having religions or moral beliefs of some peoples morality taught by strangers at schools, then the morality of the parents is overidden by a stranger at a school in which even the christian original teachings were actually changed and retaught in this weird pedophile santa type way and they wont stop it because it makes some sociopaths a lot of money. Now while everyone is distracted with that war, we now have more religious schools for people who arent poor and arent all the same and suffering just because they are the same religion and its a jewish school in remuera targetting the richest neighbourhoods families while getting 1 million dollars a year in public funding and also 2 muslim schools in which saudi arabia is loaded so muslims arent poor and getting 2 million a year public funding. No one else gets their own personal belief schools as everyone is different, so no on has been treated equally for a long time. Even in the early colonial days, kids left school at 12, it wasnt compulsory to respect parents choice, religion was kept separate to schools so that parents and families could teach it themselves in the way they want to and they simply taught kids to focus on communicating properly and how to feed and clothe themselves and they played amongst each other with good communicating and learnt how to defend their situations with words. Sorry if this was long its just getting really quite concerning seeing such tribal behaviour in this institution, theres a reason why so many people of so many races joined these societiws and it was to escape the tribal behaviours of their families in scotland, england, ireland etc and thats the same here. Communicating in such a polarising way is so bad for families and societies and kids and we could have so much more of our own money if people were actually less bad at communicating

How do you "study effects on Maori" objectively when being Maori is a case of identifying as Maori / subjective? When including someone's, who's 1/16 Maori's, needs in a study, do you claim that the 15 other ancestors have no impact on the situation? If you ignore 15 ancestors and claim 1 ancestor is more important, isn't that enough to make any "study's" findings irrelevant?

Otherwise, your "results" only say something about their choice to identify as Maori and not anything about Maori.

@@BruceNJeffAreMyFlies while you dream, your ancestors will wake you up because of the prejudice you show against some of them because you think you're entitled to others taxes because of some of them. Stop being racist and you'll have the good dreams and ultimately the reality.

​@BruceNJeffAreMyFlies yeah it's called Australia funny how they do so much better for themselves there where they have no choice but to get off their ass and work for what they want in life like everyone else. Because having a little nugget in your blood means sweet fa there. No government hand outs no tax payers funding sink or swim the choice is yours maori or not. Unlike in new zealand where being a maori can easily just choose to be a leach an ride the gravy train through life. All ones like you are scared of is that train coming to a screaming hault.

That's what the English said in Ireland about the Irish. Can't rhey just accept the status quo and be happily colonised.

Well done Mr Brownlee - brings a sense of humour and respect to the house. One thing that baffles, the media always states the negative effects on Maori but to date I haven't seen them (i'm not saying they don't but I haven't seen them). Tell the reader why as an example Maori die 7 years sooner and suffer higher rates of diabetes and other life changing diseases, state them and then we can all see what is needed whether that be Govt intervention to allow better access to treatments etc or individuals to take ownership of their own situation.

It doesn’t need one it’s not a legal document, it can be abolished at any time, they are simply worried about the backlash. The major issue is the legislation so bills that were added to include some of the principles of the treaty, they would all need to be repealed, again possible, but everyone is worried about the backlash. I mean Luxon is even to scared to hold a referendum on it.

The treaty needs to be binned. It is an ancient document that has no relevance today. There is no way that what is happening today could ever have been known was going to happen when it was written. Let all of us kiwis be equal and let's all move FORWARD, I stead of trying to money grab at every opportunity. The only ones that have done well from settlements etc are a small group of overpaid executives while the average Maori has not benefitted in any way. That's not the fault of pakeha!

He came out yesterday I think to say Merry Christmas in Te Reo to throw shade at the government. They are now sounding even more like spoilt kids. No one said people don’t know a word of te reo. It’s just confusing when you change government department names & the English version is sometimes readily not even used? Communicating is the most important thing in imparting government services. I’m saying this as someone who grew up bi lingual and saw how a country with 3 offical languages operated. It wasn’t the way Labour did it which was unprofessional.
