It still doesn't make Donald right:)

But if it walks like a duck and sounds like a duck it's a duck. Simply asking questions is not the right argument for this extremely intricate situation. Simply questioning is a tool right wing extremists have been using for decades to foster dissent. Do you know Tucker Carlson, he just cost Fox News US$750 Million by just asking questions? You really do need to refine your arguments if you want to be taken seriously.

Racist, spawn of Hitler, & so many more & we don't get a word in about the subject we are meant to be talking about. It's their way of shutting down the conversion, as they know if this does come to a referendum they're screwed. We should want to be one people working together to get better services for everyone & get this country's instruction back online starting with Marsden Point oil refinery & bitumen plant as we can't fix our road properly without her. Plus, the ferries would always have clean fuel & we would have cheaper fuel as well. They get us breaking up into these small groups, they have won people as our power is when we speak as one voice.

That would be because they've always been given "special treatment". The vast majority detrimental to their, and the nation as a whole's, wellbeing.

Well spotted!

If he was truly a leader, he would be discussing electoral integrity, and voter identification. We have zero requirement to produce identification to register to vote or to actually vote in NZ. So they (anyone) can cheat and there is nothing you can do to cross check that. All things considered, this is the only subject we should be discussing, though trying to discus it with David, will see a rapid change in topic.

I agree.David Seymour is a breath of Fresh Air compared with anyone that Nats can put forward.I believe his party will pick up more votes next election. Winston Peters is the other party leader who talks sense on Co Governance & Separatism.

He's the next PM

Equity also isn't synonymous with 'democracy' as the interviewer seems to be intimating (in his frequent butting-in)

"if you can claim to be a victim you will be compensated appropriately*" you mean?

Like Maori did when the white man landed in Aotearoa New Zealand 🇳🇿

Absolutely

@@annedurrer1012 Remember back then, Maori were savages and practiced cannibalism. They were very intimidating and violent towards the colonial visitors. Visitors that had good intentions to help the local people develop and learn how to become good christian folk. Let's all live as one people, and forget this co governance nonsense.

Democracy is such a false white construct

Tame is a people control nazi

Jack needs to ask some of the more in-depth questions to the other parties and give us balance unbiased news. Sometimes I get the impression he has his own agenda and stops asking the next logical question that would get to the truth as it may often someone in the woke world.

@@Yhf6649 you think he conjures the questions alone? or that he not restricted to the " yes you can" and No you can't" ask that question, sound like you're been watching too much Alison wonderland reruns.

Have your say at the election, or this referendum if it goes ahead

right is the new left

You wouldnt know Apartheid if it sat on your face lol

This is classic disingenuous deflection. You know exactly what equity is so don’t conflate it with equality.

You're mistaken. This situation isn't akin to apartheid or the oppression of black people. Instead, it seems to reflect a colonialist agenda, where victims are portrayed as offenders. This pattern is observed globally. The concern is that ACT is leveraging this for political gain, emphasizing inequality that already exists. Māori continue to face challenges, and when they assert themselves, there's pushback. The Treaty of Waitangi, which lacks an expiration date, is often overlooked. Meanwhile, ACT and National appear to favor corporations and landlords, who frequently evade significant tax contributions. Trickle-down economics, in practice, often falls short. Granting more power and tax breaks to corporations and landlords doesn't necessarily translate to better societal prices. If the Treaty of Waitangi is seen through a colonial lens, this could lead to further marginalization of Māori, reinforcing negative stereotypes. Concerns about land confiscation and water rights are valid, given historical precedents. It's important to consider the potential consequences of concentrating power in one entity, which could lead to unchecked oppression and unequal rulings against minority groups

If Jack would keep his mouth shut and not interrupt when David is explaining something it would assist in informing the public with regards to the question he put to David. I think he was biased against David and did not like it when what he thought was a tricky question he was he was putting to David was so easily answered with a detailed explanation by David.

Jack is a programmed Leftist and does not want to hear what David has to say & doesn’t allow him to do so.

Damn r we watching the same program

Except they dont, and data interprets it that way. Co governance is an outcome from Te Tiriti, which is an agreement between 2 parties. Race is irrelevant on the basis of the agreement. Or are you saying on this basis a contract between a pakeha and a maori over wages for example is racist even though it’s an a contractual agreement signed in good faith between two parties? 😂 I’d like to hear your contractual experience and expertise on this issue lol

@@hurricane19740 good faith ? Maori have taken 3 simple paragraphs of the treaty and turned them into " war and peace " Maori have claimed all sorts that were never mentioned, greed is the driving force for the elite Maori, how many suburban Maori have received a single cent from settlements, none !! you are being ripped off by your own elite leaders, the world owes Maori nothing.

No your racist.

Pffffft

I agree but in any debate someone must take the alternate view even if he does not believe that it is true.I've never heard of the guy.

They probably want their land back

@Frank Fletcher, which land? The land they sold several times, or the land they have been "full & final" settled for several times? And let's not forget, before colonisation they owned nothing, for it was regularly taken by the next tribal warmonger that happened their way - and that was far from the worst of it. And while on the subject, they didn't even have a name for New Zealand, that was how wide their 'world view' was. As evidenced by the Treaty in 1840, the name 'Aotearoa' for the country simply didn't exist. Yet just another revisionist myth.

A hand full of Maori in the pakeha system means nothing to the general Maori population. Maori should have been the most well to do people if the system was fair. 95 percent of this country is govt and foreign own that generates billions if not trillions Maori get some back in prison. Hospitals benefits child poverty don't know what homeless get. Scraps Just because a few faces are seen in high places but you can't see the lowlys hipocrites I say

Because he clearly hasn't read the Treaty, or leastwise understood it. The granting of British citizenship is equality in the eyes of the law created by the ceded sovereignty. Equity is not mentioned anywhere in any version.

Read the Maori version

I would be keen to know the different Maori words or phrases that are used to distinguish between different mutually exclusive forms of equality. What is the Te Reo for equality under the law, equality of opportunity and equality of outcome. Then tell us which one appears in the Treaty. @@hatupaoraolsen-mcgarvey2700

KZfaq Maori confiscated land, also the east coast raids

Jack a little lefty and can’t hide his bias

Exactly! We've heard for years about the Maori arriving on their Waka. They're no more indigenous than anyone else in New Zealand.

@@paperclip612 That's why they want UN status as First Nation people. A fraud if there was ever one.

Exactly

Yes. But they signed a treaty with the crown.

Some are not going to like being reminded of that little fact.

Yeah I wasn't too sure about that. I believe it was that Maori will be treated as British citizens or something like that. But also Maori did not cede sovereignty to the crown like David said so they're both wrong

That's what they said in Nazi Germany before the holocaust started.

Maori language Is constantly transliterated by😮 pakeha to suit. David Seymour's chit is a great example

So why did the Queen apologize to Maori publicly,(colonists is another word for thieves

@Fiona McGauley Yes Queen Elizabeth apologised not Queen Victoria. As I said Queen Victoria never would of allowed sovereignty or self determination to Maori to be written in a contract . The Maori signed an agreement to be treated the same as the settlers, there's No way she would of agreed to anything else. And as I said my Irish ancestors had their land taken, most Irish/British who came to Nz came here to escape classism and poverty.

@@chchwoman9960 no I'm saying it should be prioritized so those that are eligible by first nation indigenous, , to the country should be higher up the eligibility ladder ,as you may know Maori are more times likely to need it more and should be allocated a percentage annually where as migrants and lesser generations would be on a public waiting list , because if you look at statistics moari are more less likely to be granted eligibility than other ethnic groups, the only thing Maori are more likely to receive are incarceration facilities ,are at the bottom of the heap for accommodation education and employment

So it is wrong for some idiot, to decide, that some outlaw, is not as bad as another outlaw. They are all the same, until they have completed their sentence.

Yes, but they also have other rights.

That's the issue with the treaty. The Maori version is very different. It meaning is more towards equity.

It also says Maori can retain what is theirs.

I don't see Maori fsvourtism Just a govt designed process that looks like Maori are getting something like Maori trust boards that doesn't distribute to the victims and the govt don't care. Your being deceived and need to look where the lowlys are.. Govt and foreigners gave taken more than 95% land from Maori. Govt and foreign ers Responsible for bringing and educating alcohol drugs and other crimes how many Maori shop owners sell alcohol The Treaty is an absolute fraud and bullshit document nothing sacred about it. There only thing in that document that mentions God is Tino Rangatiratanga which none of the politician can interpret ate the meaning.

@@barneyboy2008 Yes. Article 2 specifically stated that, and also stated equality. The thing is Seymour here ignores what that article states.

Incorrect there are many full blood Māori still alive. I’m related to many though I am not full Māori myself. Oriini Kaipara, a well known TV broadcaster is also full Māori. My grandparents birth certs recognise them as full blood Māori (back when birth certs used to say that stuff) making my mother also full blood Māori. This is just two examples among many.

I'm part Maori, I have British Ancestry as we as Maori, I'm already doing some research on my family tree, the Maori side, the English side I'm still researching.

One drop of Maori blood is all you need to whakapapa back to your full blooded tupuna and tupuna wsirua Tane. If you don't accept your other blood type because the culture don't appeal or the characteristic nature isn't your style that's OK Using mathematics in whakapapa is a weak and degrading tactic like saying we've flushed the Maori system down the toilet.

Yeah lets be all one people...lets all be white....l can here the violins playing lol

How Many schools did you attend? And Where did you live growing up?

All the govt services were on confiscated Maori land. Public works act is a thief No Maori land should have ever been sold or taken. Partnership would have been acceptable without taking the land by lease agreement only and Maori wouldn't be in the gutter. In hastings a Chinese garden chained hid son the garden to work and those foreigners didn't come here penniless the Asians own forestry that's come back to bite the people in the arse The wsirua of this country chose Maori and that's where Maori should go back to not follow the govt and foreigners who can't stay in their own corrupt country.

well said

One thing to keep in mind is that the immigrants that are allowed to live here usually have to meet certain criteria to do so, one of which is to earn over a certain threshold of money and/or have skills that are in demand. Or be a refugee, but those are of a limited number, and then are family, etc, but the bulk of permanent immigrants are skilled people. So basically the immigrants that live here are to cream of the crop, whereas Maori in New Zealand include all levels of ability and expertise, so that does skew things a bit. We don't get many cleaners, and call centre staff from Third World countries getting residency, for example, mostly the skilled people that are in demand such as nurses, doctors, engineers, ag/hort workers, now hospitality workers, etc

U nailed it
