@percfranklit I get the point you're making but I think it's a bit unfair - u might not be aware of all the tactics currently being used to combat NZ's racist govt? I don't think te Pāti Māori of all people are naive to the limitations of, or the damage inherent in, the NZ parliament
National’s “look we don’t like the bill either but that’s just the nature of MMP” line is so disgustingly pathetic. re-opened Pandora’s box of white supremacy then pretending to be the adults in the room scolding Māori for responding to the racist provocation they’ve unleashed
Te Pāti Māori and supporters should stir up every attempt to sit until the hīkoi arrives. I think they would have support from the majority of people who voted them in 😇
the thing about the CA slavery prop was that it wasn’t even confusing. the language was clear. y’all just hate incarcerated people and think they’re not human.
