And it is great to see leaders who have overseen the corruption of the cornerstone institutions (universities, social welfare and justice departments) finally being told their services are no longer required.
Hopefully their departure will be accompanied by government directives that
cleanse these vital components of modern society - allowing them to return to
programmes that create unity of purpose rather than the (racial) division that
has become the hall mark of current administrations - eg. in the US, UK, Canada
and Australia to name just a few.
Fortunately New Zealand has been rescued from the Woke
society that operated unrestrained under the previous government but we are not
yet out of the woods.
The clean up in the middle of a recession will take longer
than hoped but we have at least begun the rebuilding process that will restore
our nation to the moral standards that sustained us through all the upheavals
(wars, depressions, pandemics) since the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi.
It is remarkable that we are able to survive recent attempts
at indoctrination that has been the calling card of the false prophets
masquerading as promoters of a new order.
My belief is that the only reason we are able to acknowledge
our mistakes and take steps to return us to the society where we proudly lead
the whole world is because the Woke society is not us. We are better than that.
Movements like “Black Lives Matter” in the US, “Welcome to
Country” in Australia and our own “ Treaty Principles” debate - while in their
original context as a basis for discussion could have been a useful tool in the
development of more inclusive policies, have instead been allowed to be
mis-used by radical academics and politicians in pursuit of what can only be
described as “utu!”.
It remains to be seen whether moderate Maori leadership
(people of quality such as Sir Tipene Stephen O’Reagan) can replicate what
their ancestors did way back in 1840 when they rescued the Maori race from
extinction at their own hand - it is somewhat ironic that Maoridom find
themselves in such a perilous state but, sadly, they have only themselves to
blame.
My hope is that common sense will prevail and a way forward
will be found that benefits all citizens of this great country.
There is no doubt about our capacity to move forward in a
climate of equal opportunity but it will require a commitment of every one of
us in order to once again lead the world in the way we peacefully coexist with
one another.
Let’s begin the process of reconciliation today - tomorrow
may be too late.

I admire your optimism and hope it well founded. But I note that Turia and husband between them, although by no means prolific by maori standards, left 66 descendants. With birth control not a prime priority for the TPM orientated maori social services, I can see why so many councillors, nurses, teachers, employers, employees, business folk, judiciary, legal profession pander to the maori cause. Despite the child producing efforts of many new immigrants we are headed for maori control. Whether rulers in the image of Tamahere or Morgan will respect the sycophancy remains to be seen. Hopefully Trump will maintain America a destination where many able motivated NZers, can flee, like Zimbabweans,
The woke agenda was a screen thrown up by Adern under the tutorldge of the deviously clever, morally devoid, self enriching, corrupt Helen Clark.
The maori and trans issues kept the nz public adequately distracted whilst adern and her masters plundered the nz government and Pfizer coffers.
And embarrassingly, it was all too easy to fool over 50% of voters, some of whom are still convinced Jacinda saved them, and don't think whywhen they're sitting on a nz health waiting list, or are being given outdated cheap ineffective drugs because tje saviouslr took all their drug money .
I fail to see much relevance of Mark's dubious and extreme comments. Clark would likely have avoided the coastal control drama about to embrace us and for which the recent hikoi a mere rehearsal. And whilst she has doubtless earned considerably for her various able services, I doubt if she is amassing a family dynasty . Where does Moderator draw the line?
As a susceptible elderly still leading a very full life, I may not have made it under a US/Italy/Spain type response with its 1919 type death roll.. (The handling of the economics another matter)
