After all the raru yesterday, it seems as if Toitū is distancing itself from some of the comments made in the media.

Who wants to bet MSM doesn’t run this post nearly as much as they ran the drama ?

NZ First is digging its own grave by backing the Regulatory Standards Bill In the name of stability, NZ First may have handed David Seymour the tools to destabilise the future of the party.

Are you going to pass the RSB ?

Shane Jones: We’ll wait to see what the submissions say.

99% of 157,000: no thanks mate.

Shane Jones: so yeah, we’re gonna pass it anyway.

This govt bro lol

'Issue for all': Hipkins not interested in automatic citizenship just for overseas Māori He's also distanced himself from more comments from Te Pāti Māori MP Takuta Ferris.

Disheartening.

Some will never understand the bond Māori have with the whenua. A country taken from us, policies designed to keep us down, we move to survive, yet our kids are labelled foreigners on the very land our Tūpuna died trying to defend. That’s crazy to me.

I think it’s labours push for the Māori seats. This paired with how hard Willy Jackson has been coming for TPM. I don’t think it’s a coincidence Willy is leading the charge and is the one in charge of the campaign for the Māori seats. Shanan has also been involved in the fight for Māori seats.

Labour MP accuses TPM of starting to create ‘exclusive bunch of Māori’ "This week is about celebrating where everyone’s at on their journey."

Shanan Halbert leaning into “elite separatist Māori” territory here.

Why ? For speaking Te Reo Māori on Te Wiki O Te Reo Māori. What a travesty ! 🙄

Looks like Labour might be getting an early start on their campaign for the Māori seats.

How coalition MPs plan to vote on their Māori wards How do some coalition MPs plan to vote on the Māori ward referendum?

Nicky and The Bish both voting no. Some seem to think the Nats are being dragged into some sort of race war.

Bit difficult when they’re the ones leading the way.

Shane Jones threatening to pull funding from Waitangi is gross. I know Seymour is Seymour but Shane Jones is fast becoming my least favourite MP.

They need to remember they’re not in parliament and they’re not in their homes, they’re at the Marae, they don’t get to dictate tikanga.

After finally watching all of the oral submissions today, one of my immediate thoughts is that there is a clear gap in intelligence between those for and against the bill.

I’ll let you guys guess which side I think is more uneducated lol #nzpol

Gross post by the guy destroying land for money.

Many marae do not allow English spoken on their grounds, this is their tikanga. When you go to someone’s home you respect their rules.

Shane knows this, could it be that he is trying to gain political favour off the back of a tangi ? Surely not…

'Disturbing': Pou whenua vandalised along busy Tasman DOC track Pou whenua are carved posts that are used to mark out boundaries or places of significance to Māori.

How many more times do Māori need to be attacked before the govt realise they have a big part to play in this division.

3 taonga desecrated and Debbie Ngarewa Packer attacked just this month.

Luxon, is this what you promised when you said your govt would deliver for Māori ? #nzpol

How Te Pāti Māori aims to unite opposition against current Government Te Pāti Māori seeks united opposition to oust 'cruel' government.

A united front is absolutely what’s needed on the left. I’m a TPM voter myself as I believe there is only one party that has the best interests for Māori.

We’ve been shafted by both major parties in the past and it’s about time there was a govt voice that is staunchly Māori #nzpol #ToituTeTiriti

NZ’s economy wasn’t in recession before the election. In the past 6 months the economy has dropped faster than any time since 1991 (excluding COVID). This is what the politics of austerity does. Nicola Willis and Christopher Luxon are clearly making things worse not better!

I’m not sure what NZGAs position was on the matter, but according to the articles he ultimately has the last decision. He said he had taken into account many viewpoints before making his choice. I personally think the right choice is the one supported by iwi and Hutt council.

Fresh from making the decision on Candace Owens. Chris Penk strikes again, despite the council and iwi being overwhelmingly in favour of the change.

Can we get a 3 strike rule going for this guy ? #nzpol

And just a couple days after the tāonga on top of Mauao was vandalised. My mum and grandparents lived through loud and proud racial abuse. Now the racists are back, but times have changed and we won’t stand for it anymore.

The racists are being emboldened every day by this govt. Will Luxon stop blaming MMP and start taking responsibility for his part in the division his govt has already created ?

7AA, Māori Wards, TPB, MAPAS, etc. Sadly some of their supporters have joined the govts trend of attacking Māori #nzpol

Close up of some of the damage. All those lighter marks are where the Taonga has been damaged, yesterday it was smooth. It’s believed to be done by a sharp metal instrument, likely a spade or crowbar etc.

Mauao will be closed after tomorrow, likely until this is resolved.

I don’t want to assume this is racially motivated but given the trends since this govt’s come in, I’m going to assume it.

This comes the day after Tauranga city council disregarded the emails sent by hobsons pledge. Every day they drag out Seymour’s bill is a day it gets worse. #nzpol
