Oxford Dictionary defines anarchy as “a state of disorder due to absence or non-recognition of authority or other controlling systems” which pretty much sums up our current political state.
Our democracy is under attack but not from overseas; this is an internal attack from a tiny minority sector of the Maori population pushing tribal divisions to promote race and culture over competence.
You can do as I do which is to largely ignore MSM news because it usually wavers between unreliable and offensive, but at some point the Treaty of Waitangi “principles” that crept into law and practice must be addressed. These are on a collision course with democracy.
Concern didn’t begin with the recent Waitangi dissenters, the rabble who rudely interrupted speeches and an idiot who flashed his goolies at David Seymour. They are symptoms of a bigger problem: the systematic annihilation of democracy. It’s fast reaching a crisis that can no longer be ignored.
It’s not a case of if, but when the coalition acts against the onslaught, but it is guaranteed to be messy thanks largely to the media who, metaphorically speaking, control the amount of blood on the floor.
Imagine if you will, that doyen of gut-wrenching, emotional reporting, at the scene where the life blood drained from a body. Picture the room where the death occurred, the reporter standing sympathetically bent over, a perplexed expression on his face, a confused “Why?” question on his lips, his hands grasping a microphone that he uses with hushed tones and long pauses for effect. He surveys the loss of life through his thick-rimmed glasses, a tear escaping down his cheek as he surveys the blood sprayed on the walls and ceiling from the violent severing of the carotid artery. This is not the death of a person but the death of a box of lies, a life carefully constructed five decades ago. Now, that I would watch.
Little wonder Luxon hesitates: he will need every encouragement, every reminder from his coalition partners that he is obliged to enter the room lest the Government fail to honour the mandates bestowed last year.
It will not be business as usual for Jacinda’s Disinformation Project. They show no appetite for the treaty travesty and will only spring to attention when the knife is at their throat. This too would be worth watching but the media aren’t interested in the demise of the Disinformation Project. Their bloodless exit will be the sound of their running feet and doors slamming as they hastily depart to find another lucrative commission with no accountability. Good luck finding that in private enterprise.
Anarchist voices are becoming louder and more strident: they are the voices of young propagandised school children, Marxist academics and the Maori elite seeking political and monetary gain, like this anarchist.

Cue another voice, the softly spoken, eminently sensible and learned voice of Elizabeth Rata, sociologist of education in the School of Critical Studies, Faculty of Education and Social Work at the Auckland University, invited by the Herald’s deputy political editor, Thomas Coughlan, to discuss the treaty. Coughlan is a useful idiot who found himself on the receiving end of a history lesson that could potentially elevate him out of the useful idiot camp.

We should remember that the loud anarchist voices represent just a tiny minority. Some will be people who voted for the Maori Party in 2023 and some the useful idiots in government and media who benefit from the rewriting of NZ history to introduce tribalism which threatens democracy.
Education is what Rata does and in 2013 she argued for improving the teaching content in NZ schools.
…[Rata] argues that students are shortchanged by an emphasis on teaching skills rather than content.
One of the great puzzles in education today is what has happened to knowledge.
Bewildered parents suspect something has happened in schools but are not quite sure what. Knowledge is after all what schools are about, surely – so what is going on? Why does our national curriculum not mention content knowledge? Why is it all about skills, competencies, and values?
Lets Bring Knowledge Back Into Schools 7 Sept 2013 (Italics mine)
Rata was right to be concerned but apparently she lost that battle.
In 2012 New Zealand ranked 8th in The Learning Curve global education report, published by education firm Pearson.
The report looked at the performance rates of various countries in reading, writing and maths, using existing data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
Researchers found that those countries at the top of the league table and dubbed “the education superpowers” – Finland and South Korea – prioritised developing high-quality teachers.
An international evaluation of the best education systems saw New Zealand slide downhill from ranking 8th in 2012. We did not make the top 20 countries in 2024.
Using race as a benchmark has infiltrated education and public services. Diversity quotas, including race, were introduced into applicants’ evaluation at universities, the police force, practically every government agency and some private practices, which is a very risky business if competence is discarded.
…racial quotas for medical school: Auckland University’s medical school advises that of the 287 places on offer in 2024, 40 percent or 115 places are reserved for Maori and Pacific Island students – up from 70 in 2022 – while “general entry” places have dropped from around 120 to 98. And while A grade levels are necessary for ‘general entry’ candidates, C grades appear sufficient for the Maori and Pacific students.
Unless the tentacles of tribalism are severed it will continue to divide and dumb down the nation.
Suze sees herself as a New Zealander whose heritage shaped but does not define, and believes unless we protect our rights and freedoms they will be taken off us by a few powerful people. This article was first published HERE

Good article.
I can’t help but wonder if the internet & social media are behind a lot of the changes we see in society. I heard recently that it is making us ungovernable.
Democracy is at risk due to highly polarised groups having outsized voices - like transgender activists. Previously they were so small that no one heard them but now they’re so loud that they’re at odds even with the LGBs.
Same with Maori activists who shout so loudly than ordinary Maori cannot be heard. Just look at Winston trying to speak at Waitangi.
And our stupid, corrupt MSM still can't see the devil that they aid, abet, and invariably worship.
“Our democracy is under attack but not from overseas; this is an internal attack from a tiny minority sector of the Maori population pushing tribal divisions to promote race and culture over competence.”
It was started by OUR government of the day, when they fraudulently used ‘one page’ of a two page document that had been waxed and pinned together and known/ recorded as “Maunsell’s make do treaty”. This one page had been used by Reverend Maunsell to collect an overflow of Waikato heads chiefs signatures in 1840. (The other page was the printed Maori language version read out to the chiefs on the day and signed by 5 chiefs.)
This one page of a two page document was then designated the title of ‘the English language treaty as signed version” and was used to enact the 1975 Treaty of Waitangi Act which created the apartheid Waitangi Tribunal.
OUR successive governments have only made our apartheid situation much worst, all without the consent of the taxpayers who suffer the consequences of ‘out of control history ignorant public servants’.
The tiny minority of ‘part Maori radicals’ are only taking advantage of a situation that OUR governments have created and I am of the opinion that the UN or the IMF is behind it all, working through OUR governments to push this racial agenda.
>And while A grade levels are necessary for ‘general entry’ candidates, C grades appear sufficient for the Maori and Pacific students.
BUT we are assured that the standards applied during training are the same, so the quality of the eventual graduate in medicine is not compromised.
Do you believe them?
I don't. And having worked over 30 years at universities in 3 countries I would say I was quite well informed.
Sir Apirana Ngata is being treated with contempt by so called modern academics. I just hope this does not happen to Ms Rata.
You're so right Barend about the latter. And about the signing, with the vast majority of the Chiefs putting their mark, all but a very few would have been able to read the reo version, yet alone what the English words said. What they were 'signing' to was what was read to them - Te Tiriti. Past politicians have done the majority of New Zealanders a great disservice, the least they could do is give us all the opportunity now to speak to it and put it right. As the appliance man, Alan Martin used to say, "it's the putting right that counts!"
