Mariameno Kapa-Kingi is not set on rejoining Te Pāti Māori (TPM) despite successfully arguing in the High Court for just that.
The High Court this week ruled that Kapa-Kingi must be reinstated to TPM as her previous expulsion had been unlawful. The party then said it would move to “repatriate” her into the party.
Kapa-Kingi on Thursday said the decision to rejoin was dependent on discussions with her Te Tai Tokerau electorate, with questions over whether the party could be trusted by her rohe.....(paywalled)

Elegant solution’ to Hopuhopu puzzle: Roads on returned land could stay under iwi control
A cultural sticking point around roads on iwi land in Hopuhopu may have found an “elegant solution”.
Waikato Tainui’s long-term plan is to build 250 homes in the north Waikato area, and normally the development’s roads would be vested in the council once they’re finished.
But this case concerns land once seized from Waikato Tainui and later returned, and the Māori Queen has decreed that no further land should be given up - including the Hopuhopu roads.....

Federated Farmers challenge new Iwi cultural values
Federated Farmers say controversial new requirements for every farmer in Gore to have resource consents assessed against Ngāi Tahu cultural values are excessive and unworkable.
"Creating a parallel approval process will just increase cost, complexity, uncertainty and delays," the organisation’s Southland president Jason Herrick says.
"It’s the council’s job to manage resource consents, not Ngāi Tahu’s. Creating a parallel process through local iwi complicates the situation and divides the community.".....

The Waitangi Tribunal has granted urgency to an inquiry into the government's decision to scrap school boards' legal duty to give effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and reset Te Mātaiaho, the New Zealand Curriculum.
Northland iwi Ngāti Hine and hapū Te Kapotai, alongside the New Zealand Educational Institute (NZEI), filed the claim in November last year, arguing the changes undermined Māori rangatiratanga, partnership and equity in education.
The claimants say the removal of Treaty obligations from school boards risks causing significant and irreversible harm to Māori learners and their whānau.
In the Waitangi Tribunal's decision, it said the changes had constitutional significance and met the threshold for urgency......

Charges dismissed against Te Wehi Ratana over Te Papa Treaty protest
Charges against activist Te Wehi Heketoro Ratana relating to a protest at Te Papa’s Treaty of Waitangi exhibition have been dismissed after the Crown withdrew the prosecution ahead of a scheduled jury trial.
Ratana had been facing charges of intentional damage and obstructing a Police officer, with the matter set down for a firm jury trial beginning on 30 March 2026.
He was one of two people charged in relation to the action and had previously been remanded in custody at Rimutaka Prison following the incident.
The Crown reviewed the prosecution and held discussions with defence counsel Julia Spelman about issues likely to arise at trial.
While prosecutors said there remained sufficient evidence to proceed with both charges, the Crown Solicitor ultimately determined it was not in the public interest for the case to go before a jury.
Both charges were dismissed this morning by the Judge under s 147 of the Criminal Procedure Act 2011, bringing the prosecution to an end......

Wai Manawa Whenua has lodged an appeal to the Court of Appeal following the recent High Court decision in its freshwater case against the Crown, saying the ruling raises significant constitutional questions about whether assurances given by the Crown to Māori can be legally enforced.
The High Court found that assurances given by the Crown during the Mixed Ownership Model (MOM) litigation were limited to that programme and did not mean the Crown was legally obligated to recognise Māori rights and interests in freshwater. The Court also found that the remedies sought would interfere with Parliament’s role in developing policy and the introduction of legislation.

Not only have Bunnings management gone extremely woke by getting permission from Maori to install security cameras, but look at the labels on rows within their stores in synthetic te reo.
Why have the Australian owners gone the brown way ?
I have told my local bunnings that I will swap over to supporting Mitre 10 unless they stop this bullshit.
So, Bunnings have now gone all 'woke', too? Why on earth are they consulting a "Maori sovereignty expert", or are they bowing to the lie that Maori didn't cede sovereignty and therefore conventional laws of the land may not apply? With tikanga included, does that mean utu is all good if a product fails, and will the ' store policy' differ depending on location? And, did they consult the Waitangi Tribunal, and is this not systemic racism/unconscious bias in action - suggesting it's Maori that do most of the theiving and therefore they need to be "consulted"? Or perhaps, is it that recording facial tattoos may invoke copyright and cultural appropriation issues? Whatever - but the person in Bunnings who thought this 'consultation' was 'all good and appropriate' needs to be demoted or, better still, sacked.
Never mind the woke bit - the customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Having paid, was leaving store today complete with two bags and a large, long, unwieldy 11kg ladder. Was stopped by young male employee. Was he offering to help me to the car with my load of purchases? No - he made me drop everything, fish in my wallet for my till receipt so he could scan it to see I wasn’t nicking anything and then sent me on my way again! Thanks a bunch Bunnings! I’d been only a couple of metres away from this guy when I’d paid just moments before - obviously no eyes in his head, just a scanner in his hand🙄
I am avoiding purchase at Bunnings now. Mitre10 Mega for moi!!!
Westpac, if you are listening - I find your advertising promoting Scholarships for Maori only offense - I don't know how you manage to legally gift that privilege and money on a racist basis.
Knowing that it could be some of my money, I will never bank with Westpac.
