Wow. Even with his new slower delivery I will have to listen twice to absorb all that. If only the msm could manage such mature comment. Bishop has been and is too preoccupied planning how to ruin Auckland's pleasant suburbs to devote serious time to major national problems.
I have read Chris lives in Days Bay. You would be unlikely to get infill housing in Days Bay. It's all smoke and mirrors folks. Look at the fine print before you select your candidate. The fact that somehow part-Maori citizens can decide what others can and cannot do is now being accepted as the norm in housing, in the office environment, in health and even in access to areas of the country. I wish, like half our population I could see this as acceptable, but I simply can't.
And there you have the intention of legislating Iwi with all that power and influence and yet, Iwi are not even identified once in Te Tiriti. Go figure?
Gump's mother was right - "stupid is as stupid does"!
"Bishop has the power to do better" I'm sure Anglo Saxon has given him this excellent advice. So good!
Not sure this opinion is worth the time, I’d rather hear from a New Zealander, thanks
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT PODCAST Mr Anglo Saxon’
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOUR COMMENTARY
IF NEW ZEALAND IS TO BE A REAL DEMOCRACY, WHICH IT IS DEFINITELY NOT AT PRESENT;
1. ALL NEW ZEALAND CITIZENS SHALL HAVE EQUAL RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
2. ALL RESIDENTS SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO PRACTICE THEIR RELIGION and CULTURE but confined by NEW ZEALAND LAW,
BUT CANNOT IMPOSE THEIR CULTURE OR RELIGION ONTO ANY OTHER.
3. THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE RMA; LOCK IN NEO-ARISTOCRATIC CONTROL AT A HIGHER LEVEL THAN AT PRESENT
4. I HIGHLY SUSPECT THIS IS NOT DUE TO MINISTER CHRIS BISHOPS’ PERSONAL CONCEPTS ON RMA REFORM, BUT ON INSTRUCTIONS FROM ???? .. . . . . .
