New Zealand isn’t just drifting toward a two-tier society, I say we’ve already arrived!
While we go about our daily lives, a quiet revolution is being engineered by the very people sworn to represent us. This isn’t a conspiracy; Oh no, it’s a co-ordinated march toward tribal rule, led by politicians and protected by a shield of complicit media, elite academics, and bureaucratic “gatekeepers.”
The blueprint for a divided New Zealand is no longer a hidden agenda, it’s an operational reality. We are witnessing the systematic dismantling of the equality of citizenship in favour of entrenched Māori privilege. This shift toward a two-tier nation is being fast-tracked by politicians, emboldened by mandarins, the unelected bureaucracy in the civil service who have appointed themselves the gatekeepers of our democracy and rubber-stamped by the MSM.
If you think we still live in a one-person, one-vote nation, you haven’t been paying attention! The era of equal rights in New Zealand is being quietly euthanised. Behind the slogans of “partnership” lies a grim reality; The steady, covert implementation of tribal rule continues.
We have become a two-tier nation, fractured by the Maori elite and accommodated and fostered by successive governments who now serve a new master!
So, where did it all begin? The incremental creep of power and influence by Maori leaders began decades ago when impressionable tertiary students were indoctrinated in the agenda of decolonisation.
Without a doubt the indoctrination of decolonisation and Critical Race Theory in our universities has played the lead role in the creation of a two-tiered nation. If it was an actual planned agenda, then we must salute the architects for they have succeeded in planning and implementing a very successful strategy!
The late Dr Moana Jackson and Professor Margaret Mutu stand as the preeminent academic architects of the Māori sovereignty movement, specifically through their leadership of Matike Mai Aotearoa.
Matike Mai was commissioned by the National Iwi Chairs Forum following the 2010 signing of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples by John Key’s government. This working group was tasked with developing a framework for constitutional transformation. Jackson and Mutu set out to, identify, highlight and crystallise the specific priorities for Māori self-determination and the legislative pathways required to achieve true sovereignty. Thus, creating the foundational vision that eventually formed the He Puapua Report.
The key and immutable central plank of Jackson and Mutu’s academic and political strategy was the elevation of He Whakaputanga, the 1835 Declaration of Independence. Jackson and Mutu defined Whakaputanga as the parent, or over riding document to the Treaty of Waitangi. They argue that this document asserted the absolute sovereignty of the United Tribes, a status they maintain was never surrendered.

They argue that this document asserted the absolute sovereignty of the United Tribes, a status they maintain was never surrendered.
Jackson once said – “…colonisation is the violent denial of the right of indigenous people to continue governing themselves in their own lands…”
Their work intentionally moved beyond the modern Crown-defined concept of partnership, which they said was a fundamental misinterpretation of history. They, instead, advocated for a model based on the distinct spheres of authority established by the rangatira of the 19th century, asserting that the sophisticated political alliances formed by tribes in 1835 remain the legitimate basis for Māori governance today.
These are the same tribes that were constantly at war with each other?
Māori leaders in New Zealand have always fought to end British colonisation. Early British immigrants relied instead on myths they created to justify illegitimately dispossessing Māori and usurping our power, often brutally and violently, forcing us into poverty, deprivation, marginalisation and powerlessness that present day statistics! (Margaret Mutu 2019)
Both were absolutely immovable in their argument that Māori never ceded sovereignty when they signed the treaty, actively challenging the clear and dominant narrative that authorized British control.
It is these concepts that were imbued and imbedded in their students!
Jackson and Mutu were the intellectual radicals who set the minds of 1990’s law students ablaze.
Jackson and Mutu’s radical insights reshaped the minds of law students. They didn’t just teach 90’s law students, they transformed them!
For 90’s law students, the words of Jackson and Mutu weren’t mere lectures; They were a reckoning that changed the legal landscape forever.
Professor Khylee Quince, the Dean of the School of Law at Auckland University, credits the revolutionary Moana Jackson for bringing Māori perspectives and the truth of colonisation into the classroom, changing the face of New Zealand law forever. She often reflects on how Jacksons teachings were a catalyst for change, transforming law schools by centring Māori identity and challenging the legacy of colonisation.
A generation of lawyers walked into law school in the 90s, but through the thoughts and voices of Jackson and Mutu, they walked out as activists.
As is now seen by the actions of a number of those populating our judiciary and legal system!
More dangerous, however, is the quiet infiltration of Tikanga Maori into our legal system. Tikanga repackaged and wrapped in legalese by sovereignty activists and sold under the sophisticated guise of Bijural Law!
Bijural Law is the formal description of the of the entwining of our established legal system, civil law or common law, with a supposed pre-existing law or customary law.
Bijural law is the hugely successful “Trojan Horse” of the Māori sovereignty movement. Its seeds were sown in our universities in the ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s by lecturers aligned to or supportive of the Maori sovereignty movement.
One such member of the judiciary is Justice Christian Whata, a Judge of the Court of Appeal. Justice Whata graduated from the University of Auckland with a Bachelor of Laws in 1992.
Justice Whata has claimed that “tikanga was the original law of Aotearoa” and therefore needs to be introduced as a legal system having equal status with the Common Law. Justice Whata does not merely see tikanga as an optional, minor component of NZ law, but as a structure to be recognized as part of the foundational legal structure of New Zealand.
By granting tikanga legal pre-eminence, an increasingly radicalised judiciary is effectively staging a bloodless coup, replacing equal citizenship with a racially ordered, legal hierarchy.
In the 2022 Supreme Court, Ellis v Crown, Justice Winkelmann stated that Tikanga “was the first law of New Zealand and was not displaced or extinguished by the arrival of the English common law” In the same case, Justice Glazebrook said that “Tikanga Māori principles are part of the common law of Aotearoa.“
Jointly, the Justices in the Ellis trial, claimed – Tikanga “is a system of law providing predictability and templates and frameworks to guide actions and outcomes.” and “Tikanga Maori means the right Mãori way of doing things.”
The push for a tikanga/bijural legal system is a masterclass in academic and judicial capture. It is a perfect example of the subversion employed by Maori activists in academia, civil service, politics and in this case the judiciary, using the incremental creep of increasing authority and primacy as the march to Maori Sovereignty gathers pace!
Activists in the judiciary have abandoned their role as neutral arbiters of the law, becoming architects of Māori sovereignty. This incremental legal creep isn’t just a reform; It is a direct assault on the fundamental principle of one law for all and the sovereignty of our Parliament!
It is the weapon the activist aligned judiciary are employing to undermine New Zealand’s democracy. By elevating tribal custom over established law, activist judges are fast-tracking a separatist agenda that threatens to fracture the nation’s lawful foundations.
These academic and legal experts argue that tikanga is fluid, always evolving and ever changing. In doing so, they’ve essentially given themselves the authority to bend the law to fit the situation at hand.
How convenient!
When the law is designed to be everything, it effectively becomes nothing!

In a democracy "co-governance" is not possible. Sooner or later those large numbers that work hard for a living will get disgruntled with those who profit merely by being "overseers" or "rulers, designated by their ethnicity".
It won't work in New Zealand where the populace will eventually see the light, the same way the British and US citizens have finally discarded the wokeness and unfairness being inflicted upon them.
Real people are not interested in Tikanga. Honestly, some of these so-called "academics" are as thick as two planks.
No doubt - now deeply embedded . Why? Because no consultation with citizens was ever permitted - in fact, consciously prevented. Example: Luxon's brutal elimination of ACT's TP Bill .
Very depressing reading, because i can follow the logic.
I hope NZ first and Act push national into some action.
The racist activists are winning.
APARTHEID is HERE NOW, under another name!
Our once free and equal nation is no more.
Goodbye New Zealand.
Welcome to New Zimbabwe !!
Thank you for the article PK. I apologise to Breaking Views readers, because I have said this before; however, I think it bears repeating until it is accepted by our Parliament and judiciary.
For me, the key lies in the book The Maori Magna Carta (1991) by academic lawyer Paul McHugh. The title of the books says it all, because the Magna Carta reinforced a hierarchical arrangement between King John and his subject barons.
Similarly, the Treaty of Waitangi was an agreement to a hierarchical arrangement between Queen Victoria and her subject chiefs. McHugh writes (p. 1), “The Maori chiefs ceded their ‘sovereignty’ over the islands. In return they received British subjecthood…” The chiefs showed that they clearly understood that in the speeches they made on 5 February 1840, which were recorded by Colenso. It can also be understood from a lay reading of the Treaty.
Those facts are simple and clear. I therefore believe that the assertions given above are fallacious.
How tragic, we were once a country of New Zealanders, but no longer. That dream been torn asunder by vandals who reside amongst us. We historically witnessed the segregation wars in the US and the evils of apartheid in South Africa not realising that the reverse was rolling out in our country. Only fools divide a country by race. The true divide is between wise people and fools.
Dear Luxon, Seymour, Peters,
Please say something!!!!!, please DO something !!!!! Alot of us are very worried about our future
As always - define a " Maori " ?
Anyone with a single drop of Maori blood ?
The way that NZ is evolving is that the 1 Percenters get to rule the "others".
How close to we to violent protest in the streets ?
Are you listening Luxon ?
To Janine: Yes, a total disaster in slow motion is coming - but the worst is that people will wake up too late to their devastated country.
