Reason #50 to change the Government

Friday’s reason:

Race Based Council Seats

Labour passed legislation to allow local authorities to set up Maori-only seats. Hard to think of an act more likely to be divisive and flat out wrong. There may be historical reasons for Maori seats in Parliament, but to actually go out of your way to further entrench the notion that one should have Fiji style laws where you divide voters up by race, is quite repugnant.
