AUT’s Dean of Law dismissed a legal practitioner as an old racist dinosaur who should slip away into the corner and die. Karen Chhour, Minister responsible for Oranga Tamariki, was attacked by others with Māori ancestry, essentially because she gave priority to children’s wellbeing rather than to cultural identity and whakapapa.
