Roger Childs: The wokeist ‘Post’ newspaper won’t comment on the real issues

It is very sad that the Legacy media will not cover many topics that affect our democracy and the interests of all New Zealanders. They seem terrified of commenting on Māori issues, presumably because they fear being called “racist.”

Below is a letter to the editor I sent off a week ago. Do readers feel that it is unreasonable and insulting to people who call themselves Māori?

John McLean: New Zealand Parliament's Maori Seats

What are New Zealand’s Māori electorates, and what might be their future?

Race-specific Māori representation in New Zealand’s Parliament began with the Māori Representation Act 1867. Non-Māori New Zealanders wanted to bring Māori into the national political fold.

In a departure from his monstrous colonizing ways, Member of Parliament Sir Donald McLean drafted and promoted the original Māori Representation Bill. In introducing his Bill, Donald McLean espoused his belief that Māori should have “equal rights with, and all the privileges and rights of, Englishmen” – consistent with Article 3 of the Treaty of Waitangi.
