Aim: to install tribal rule by Maori - without consultation with the NZ people for approval or rejection. Keep repeating this fact.

If the msm had any profound ability observations and comments such as from Laws would be the norm, but his is almost a lone voice. It is reassuring that at least one rational observer still exists His observations on RNZ very apt.
