As a Māori myself I see this behaviour & it's just outright embarrassing. Cringe level 1000. They are behaving like uncivilised cave people that have no place in parliament. No wonder the vast majority of Māori vote for someone else.

Dear New Zealand, The 6 o’clock news spent months gaslighting you on the elections in the US. They told you it was the closest election in decades. Every time they interviewed a Trump supporter, it was some red neck that looked & sounded crazy. In reality, over half of the voting population voted for him. They only show us the interviews that support their fake narrative - that only the crazies support Trump. Does anyone believe their claim that 75% of New Zealanders oppose a Trump presidency? I don’t recall them asking me. The current narrative is that @dbseymour is a racist bigot, whose bill seeks to erase Māori, & most New Zealanders oppose it strongly. In reality, if you spoke to all New Zealanders, I think the majority would support it. We need to turn off the 6pm news We need to crash their ratings. We need all their staff to be fired. We need to punish them for the gaslighting. You’re just willing participants at this point.

It’s takes China 38.38 hours to pump out an entire years worth of New Zealand’s c02 emissions. That means that @NZGreens forecast saving of 1% of our emissions is equal to 22.8 minutes of China’s emissions. Even if you’re one of the idiots who believes the billionaires telling them they have to cut their fossil fuel use while they fly around in private jets & cruise around in super yachts, this is not meaningful. Absolute waste of time & money. Nothing but a virtue signalling exercise for political points with a dumb voter base.

I’m about 25% Māori. But, I’m smart enough to understand that doesn’t give me additional rights over my fellow kiwis. The Māori activists who claim additional rights because “we were here first” need to understand that they weren’t here first at all. We’re related to ancestors who were here before other peoples ancestors. That’s not the same as being here first & it’s a dubious rationale to claim additional rights over others. #nzpol

Jenny-May is a moron. She asked David Seymour how the government is going to close the gender pay gap. Are you going to force women to stop taking a few years off to have kids? Are you going to force women into the trades, a field dominated by men, because we are biologically more suited to physical work? Are you going to force women to work longer hours? Men earn more money for so many reasons that have nothing to do with sexism, & everything to do with biology. Women are attracted to successful men, & men are wired to compete for women. Thats how it is. It doesn’t flow both ways. Men don’t give a f*** what women earn, or how high they can climb the corporate ladder. Give me a beautiful woman that wants to raise my children any day.

There aren't any parents in New Zealand who can't afford lunch for their kids. If that were true, you'd have parents almost dying of starvation because you'd always feed your kids before you fed yourself.

New Zealand is in a terrible place right now. People can’t even feel safe catching a bus anymore. What has happened to the country I grew up in, where we could leave our doors unlocked & not even think about it? As a solution to stabbings at bus stations & on buses they’re talking about extra security. How about an honest conversation about the root cause of the problem, which is quite clearly that our culture is being destroyed by progressive values. If you take any of these people who are stabbing people at bus stations, & you look at their lives, what won’t you find in most cases? 1. Two loving parents 2. Full time employment 3. High level of school attendance 4. Fear of God This is where we need to focus to bring our culture back to a place where we can feel safe using public transport. Crime happens downstream when culture shifts in the wrong direction. New Zealand society needs to shame absent fathers, parents whose kids aren’t in school, & beneficiaries. Take a look at Japan where the culture dictates that if you step out of line, you bring shame on your family. Are they scared to catch the bus in Japan?

New Zealand’s failing health system has very little to do with low pay, & will not be fixed if that’s where the focus is. Here’s the real problem. NZ obesity levels 1977: 10% NZ obesity levels 2023: 33% This one metric alone accounts for thousands of health problems contributing to the health system being overwhelmed. Add to that the massive increase in cancers since the vaccines, & this is all to be expected. We need a change in culture. The government should make health & fitness a compulsory part of the education system. Kids should leave school knowing how bad processed food is, & how much it benefits us to maintain an exercise routine. This isn’t hard to solve. It’s policy, not money.

The governments response to the Britomart shooting is carefully orchestrated & calculated to control the narrative. Firstly, they sent the police minister around to talk to the media instead of the justice minister. They want this to be a police issue & to focus on the quick response. This was where Ginny Anderson consistently tried to steer conversations - away from sentencing & over to the police response. Secondly, they want the focus on the public to be on how the shooter got his hands on a gun while on home detention. This is a stupid question. He wasn't on 24 hour surveillance so he was free to acquire the gun any time he liked. Yet they are acting like this would have been hard & they can't understand how this could have occurred. There is no way for him to have legally purchased the gun since he had no firearms license. So no law would have prevented this. All of this is done to direct the conversation away from the most obvious question. Why was a guy convicted of strangling a women so hard he broke bones in her neck, not in prison? The governments soft on crime ideology & the directives they have given to lower prison numbers, to give discounts on sentences, have now resulted in two murders. I would like to see the Labour Party hold a meeting with the families of the victims & explain to them how this man's hard upbringing justifies the risk to the community & how this is a fair price to pay. Judges giving discounts should have to agree to be buried next to any murder victims killed by those who would have otherwise been in prison. Once the risk is to them they will never give a discount ever again, guaranteed. #nzpol

I’d love to find a single person who can rise to this challenge. Quote the verse or verses in the treaty that clearly grant Māori an equal partnership with the crown in the governance of New Zealand. Break down the interpretation of the key words so that anyone can understand it. Clearly articulate why this grants an equal partnership, & why there’s no other, more logical way to interpret it. If you’re going to call people who don’t agree with this interpretation racist, or ignorant, then you should be able to make a good argument here. I won’t be called either for refusing to take up a position that requires me to read things between the lines in the treaty. Things that just aren’t there.

It's difficult to treat New Zealand as a normal ally within the American alliance system, when they denigrate and punish Israeli citizens for defending themselves and their country from Iranian-controlled terrorists. Hamas didn't just murder Israelis on October 7, but also American citizens, and Israel's push to utterly eradicate Hamas is straightforwardly and deeply in America's national security interests.

Watching @jacktame interview @winstonpeters was embarrassing. Jack asks a question & he wants a “direct answer” which he pushes for aggressively. But not all question have simple yes/no/number answers. Sometimes the answer can simply be an explanation as to why there’s no direct answer. But Jack is not having any such answer. Any attempt to give a complex answer is met with hostility as Jack steam rolls over the top of Winston, interrupting with a barrage of demands for a yes/no/number type answer. When it’s clear he’s not going to get one he moves on to his next bad faith question, again steam rolling through Winstons attempt to answer his previous question. From here it’s rinse & repeat. Jack, you’re an idiot. #nzpol

You can claim that all you like but there’s nothing in the text itself that says Māori are governing partners.

Watching @Breakfaston1 again so that you don’t have to, & it’s unbelievable what I just saw from @Kieran_McAnulty He’s dead set against allowing retailers to make citizens arrests, but in the same interview, bragged that he once tackled someone trying to steal his ute, & “sat on him until the police arrived”. Are you listening retailers!? It’s not OK for you to defend your property, but when it comes to Kieran’s property, he doesn’t even question his right to do it. He brags about doing it, with no self awareness of his total hypocrisy. It’s different, because it’s him & not you. It’s obviously a great move to allow retailers to take action against people who steal from them. It’s moronic that for so long we’ve expected retailers to just stand there & watch a person steal from them. They call the police, & nothing happens. I worked in retail once. A guy came in & stole a jacket off the rack, then bolted for the door. We gave chase & took the plates of the vehicle he got into. It turns out it wasn’t stolen, but the driver refused to co-operate. That’s where it ended, they did nothing. Obviously, we would have been justified in tackling him to the ground, & holding him until the police arrived. This should not even be up for debate.

Remember “goth” kids? Then came “emo” kids. We all knew kids who were “alternative” & the vast majority just grew out of it. These days emo & goth aren’t really a thing. It’s “trans” kids now. Hopefully they don’t cut their dicks off before they grow out of it.

Ardern was the worst PM in our history because she lead with kindness/empathy instead of truth. With truth as your starting point everything that follows is justified. Leading with lies for any reason ends in disaster.

I hit the malls today & when I sat down to have something to eat I couldn’t help but notice the state of the younger generation is horrendous. Some of the girls look like it’s a competition….who can achieve the best combination of fat & slutty. Then there’s the guys, many look like they could have benefitted from some bullying at school to make them think twice about their weird style & demeanour. To say they’re not masculine is the understatement of the year. So our young girls are fat & ugly, & our young guys look like little bitches. It’s no surprise that New Zealand doctors prescribe more puberty blockers per capita than any other doctors in the world. My criticism isn’t of the kids though, it’s the parents. Do better.

The youth crime, the violent crime, the ram raids, are NOT a law & order issue. You can put more cops on the street, put kids in boot camps etc it’s not going to change much. It’s a culture problem brought about by the progressive movement. First & foremost, marriage used to be forever & divorce used to be shameful. Now, divorce is common & fatherless children without a male role model are everywhere. Secondly, parents who don’t love kids are having them for the welfare money they bring in. They don’t love them, they don’t parent them properly. They’re out with their friends at night & mum & dad don’t care what they’re doing. We need to change the culture if we want less crime.

I’m sorry but diversity is not our strength. Diversity ruins nations. I want to live in a world where I can fly to Barcelona & experience Spanish culture. I want to visit Paris & experience French culture. Fortunately I’ll be long dead by the time you land in another “country” & it’s another carbon copy of the multicultural country you came from. Boring. Multiculturalism destroys individual cultures.

I recall when Rebel News released a leaked document showing collusion to block @OzraeliAvi from entering NZ. All the lefties called it fake, & anyone who dared to entertain it was laughed at. But it ended up being confirmed as real. @grantrobertson1 needs to make a statement.

Just in case you were wondering, there is nowhere in any version of the Treaty of Waitangi, where it was agreed that the crown would only govern non-Māori. You are expected to accept that it's in between the lines somewhere. The evidence? "Trust me bro" There's convincing evidence that this was not the intention, & every chief who signed knew this, I will explain..... Let's assume, for the sake of argument, that the Māori activists are correct. Let's assume that 540 (ish) chiefs signed the treaty expecting that only non-Māori would be subject to crown law. Following the signing of the treaty, the crown began to govern. And, they governed everyone. We know they governed everyone because in 1842 the crown carried out it's first hanging. Maketū Wharetōtara, a 17 year old Māori boy, was hung at noon on March 7th 1842 on the corner of Queen Street & Victoria Street, in what is now the centre of the Auckland CBD, in front of about 1,000 people. He had been convicted of murdering 5 people in the Bay of Islands. Māori accepted the judgement & the sentence. In 1849 the crown hanged Maroro, of Ngāti Kahungunu descent in Mount Cook in front of a crowd of 500 people. He had been convicted of murdering a man & his 3 children. Māori accepted the judgement & the sentence. There are other examples of imprisonments & convictions of Māori under crown law between 1840 & The Kohimärama Conference of 1860. In 1952 the crown set up our first parliament. Māori were not given a seat at the table. For 20 years these 540 chiefs, who signed a treaty that said they would not be governed, lived under crown governance, without a seat at the table, were subjected to crown law to the point where Māori were prosecuted, & even executed. Then there was The Kohimärama Conference in 1860. Finally a chance for Māori to air their many grievances. And yet, if you read the transcripts of their speeches at The Kohimärama Conference, none of them complained. On the contrary, they spoke of love for the governor, the crown, & the laws of England. So you have two versions of events to choose from. Version 1 Māori signed a treaty that they believed was a partnership with the crown, where they would not be subject to crown law. They then watched as the crown prosecuted, imprisoned, & executed Māori while enforcing crown law over Māori for 20 years. At no stage were Māori invited into parliament or given any say whatsoever. In 1860, when given a chance to speak on the issue of the Treaty, & crown governance, despite having been totally & objectively screwed over, they spoke of their love for the queen, the crown, & the laws of England. Version 2 Māori signed a document that they understood ceded governance of New Zealand to the crown, including governance of Māori. Because they were not in charge, they allowed the crown to prosecute, & sometimes execute Māori. In 1860 they didn't complain because they had been living under the terms they agreed on.

Andrew Little would honestly be an improvement from Tory Whanau. And he will be terrible. Random fact: The most popular burger at bfuel in Wellington is the V8 Vegan. Everywhere else in NZ it’s the Bacon Backfire. These are the kinds of mayors you get when you overdose on soy & have a lack of meat in your diet.

Every Māori in poverty should be talking to their Iwi and asking 2 questions. 1. How much have we been awarded in treaty settlements? 2. How much am I entitled to?

Chris Hipkin’s exposed as a twisted piece of human trash. He knew these people lived with their patients. He knew the mandate wouldn’t stop that, & he did it anyway. All to punish people who wouldn’t get vaccinated. Scum. #nzpol

I feel I need to say something about trans people. A lot of them are actually very nice people who are victims of a disingenuous ideology. They’re not our enemies. The enemy is the ideology itself, & those who have crossed the line & advocate for it to be taught to children.

After reading Dr Sharma’s lengthy FB post I have the answer to all his questions. The Labour Party is a party full of MP’s on the taxpayer gravy train. None of them take their jobs seriously and there’s a culture of skiving off, being lazy, wasting time, and generally messing….

This guy identifies as female & plays rugby for the Fergus Highlanders in Canada. He put three women on stretchers in just one month. He doesn’t even try to look female. Do we have to wait until someone dies? Guess what? Even then they will call you a transphobe for calling this out.
