David, for all his flaws, is the only one who’s actually trying to cut through the bullsh*t. He’s not hiding behind the usual vague political fluff. He’s saying, “Enough of this nonsense. Let’s make this thing clear, once and for all.” Sure, it’s not perfect, but at least it’s an attempt to stop this charade where the Treaty gets used as a political football with no real substance.
But let’s talk about the elephant in the room. We’ve been told for years we’re a country of “equality.” That we’re all citizens under the same law. Give me a break. The system is a farce. Politicians are openly pandering to a specific group, handing out perks based solely on race. This isn’t about equality, this is about keeping the power structure intact and feeding off taxpayer dollars to fund their little race-based policies.
You think this circus is cheap? Think again. Billions of taxpayer dollars are pumped into these handouts every year. Billions. That’s not pocket change, that’s real money that could actually go into something useful — infrastructure, healthcare, education. But no, it gets flushed away into the pockets of those benefiting from the “race-based system.”
And why do politicians keep this going? Because it works for them. Giving out taxpayer money based on race is the ultimate political power move. Why bother with one law for all when you can divide people, keep them at each other’s throats, and stay in control?
And don’t kid yourself, these so-called policies to “fix inequality”? They don’t fix jack. They just keep people in a cycle of dependency and make sure they’re too distracted to notice that the real problems — poverty, unemployment, and underachievement — never get addressed. If the goal was really equality, we wouldn’t need all these handouts and special programs. But what would politicians do without their race-based policies? They’d lose their base. They’d lose their votes. And we can’t have that, can we?
It’s a joke. A bad one. And it’s costing us. Every. Single. Year.
Sure, David’s Treaty Principles Bill might not be the cleanest solution, but at least it’s a step toward cutting through the nonsense. If the Treaty’s going to shape policy, then let’s at least make it mean something. It’s time to stop pretending we’re all equal when the law is selectively applied. We need a system where everyone is treated the same. No exceptions. No one gets to pull the race card to get ahead while everyone else gets left in the dust.
If you want to talk about inequality, let’s talk about the millions in taxpayer money being funneled into policies that only divide us. You want to talk about privilege? How about the people cashing in on these “race-based policies” while the rest of us are left holding the bag?
It’s time for a real change. One law for all. No more special treatment, no more pretending this is about fairness. It’s just politics, plain and simple. We don’t need these policies. We need a system that actually treats everyone equally. Period. So, enough with the games. Stop wasting our money, stop pretending to care about fairness, and start building a New Zealand where everyone gets a fair shot — regardless of race, background, or any other label.
It’s time for real change. Not the fake kind they sell us during election season.

Thank you John. An excellent down to earth, no BS, just telling the truth. It is a great shame for a once fantastic country that politicians and their appeasement policies and maori politicians and their greed are bringing this country to its knees!
Yes, as you say, "It’s a joke. A bad one." But the joke is on us! And we continue to allow the abuse!
And it should have been archived on the 3rd June 1841. This was the date when the 1840 Royal Charter/Letters Patent was enacted with the first sitting of our legislative council. This set up New Zealand's political, legal and justice systems under ONE flag and ONE law, irrespective of race, color or creed.
As always, John, you are on the number. And, thank you for sharing.
Every goon in OUR Parliament should be sent your article, and be made to read the detail.
After all, the "clowns" who walk the halls and rooms of the Bee Hive were elected to "serve the people, not dictate to the people". Seems those clowns have lost their way; and, they are most certainly not in a circus - a circus is supposed to be funny.
