And another govt (taxpayer funded) dept with pro-Māori bias that are following the He Puapua agenda. It’s a tidal wave.

I thought it would have changed with the coalition, but obviously not.

I say yet again that our education system has been rolling out Marxist educated children to fill these roles in the public service, for decades. It's smart in it's own way and hard to fight. Perhaps a smarter and more likeable Trump like leader.

Seriously. When are these people going to be fired. This deception should not go unaddressed. Heads should b**dy roll.

Whilst completing my voting papers, I followed the link as far as,

“Establishing Māori wards and constituencies provides an inclusive and democratic avenue for councils to collaborate with Māori, fostering positive relationships and ensuring decisions benefit the entire community.”

Saw this bias, but thought it must be allowed, it didn't change my mind.

I wish people could understand that we are all individuals, we do not vote oneway or another, because of our race.

Being able to have a referendum, on any issue, is a great way to see what the general public are thinking, without deliberate interference like this.

Thanks Matua, for sharing this.

Māori wards are an insult. They imply Māori cannot win seats on merit alone, which is simply not true.

Yet another govt department or NGO paid off to promote maori.
