Should have shown Ardern as backside up and head in the sand.

Her natural position on Co Governance and 3Waters. Willie Jackson runs the show on these issues with Nanaia Mahuta as his guinea pig spokesperson..

It is very true.

Equal rights are dead in this country, and have been for some time.

The fact that Tremain can’t get published anywhere in the MSM is an excellent example of how wokeness is ravaging our beloved country.

Anyone who wants to be added to his mailing list need only email him on:

Garrick Tremain

and you will receive his efforts daily.

I am told his mailing list is now thousands long.

35% of Labour sheeple, 10% of Greens sheeple and 2% of Maori party sheeple are enough to make this happen.

Can anyone explain how co governance will improve anything? Where’s the examples that illustrate this? I’ve been searching for months trying to find an answer to this and can’t find one. Are Moari superior business owners or something? Are they super smart and dominate ceo positions in nz.
Also I find it absurd that because the moari were here 400 years before Europeans that they have some kind of right to ownership of the place. It’s like the tribe protesting in Shelley bay. They moved down there in 1875 from Taranaki. How does that give them the right to the place? My great grandparents used to own most of Marsterton in the late 1800s, so by this logic I can just waltz on down there, claim it as my spiritual homeland and demand massive compensation for it. GTFOH.

We don’t do satire in NZ. Only one thing missing, shouldn’t she be wearing blinkers because the rest of the country can see what she can’t.
While she is preening and posturing overseas here at home we are suffering from a ‘Prices Crisis’. Her showboating in Europe will go down like a lead balloon with Joe Public at a time like this. She has fallen into the trap of believing her own publicity.
While her media cheerleaders tell us that she can walk on water, it is clear to see that Ardern has feet of clay.

  She is going to get a shock when the 757 is filled up with fuel 7 times in US Dollars.
  Oh wait, she is not paying. Put it on the plastic.

Tremain is a sole survivor from an era in which political cartoonists would speak truth to power.

I salute you.

  Thought: No…Tremain got canceled after a cartoon of his making fun of a meazles epidemic in Samoa was published in the ODT…IIRC it wasn’t just that he made fun of the measles, but also that he portrayed the Samoans in it as obese…which of course is just a reflection of reality.

    Given the new fashion and the ODT accepting funding from the Govt. that affair has the appearance of a setup.

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/nanaia-mahuta-family-member-appointments-officials-launch-review-into-working-group-positions/OOJNOICEGOD724N6SZ6JW2BL7I/

The family members were appointed to a Māori advisory rōpū on waste management, which researched a mātaraunga Māori framework on waste. This meant researching using traditional Māori knowledge and its applications to waste management.

All manner of maori corruption and perversion of science going on.
This is what happens when ‘maori science’ is imagined virtually overnight … we suddenly have a new breed of scientists where skin colour defines expertise rather than educational achievement.

Mahuta is appointing people who know nothing about waste management to waste management expert groups.

This is in addition to her appointing family members to mental health groups who have no expertise in mental health.

What is going on? They are wasting taxpayer money and giving it to the Mahuta clan — 100% sure there will be no usable output from these people either.

  I dunno, based upon current government expenditure and minuscule measurable delivery, I consider Mahuta et al to be a leading experts in managing waste (ful spending).
  More seriously though: NZ’s economic future is in the balance here in 2022. Someone please tell me just one industry where co-governance will add business efficiency to successfully compete in a domestic or global marketplace?

I can’t believe how Labour and National have turned egalitarian and open New Zealand into a country obsessed with racial preference and racism pushed onto us without any vote and give maori tribes 50% control of water, all RMA consents need a cultural sign off by the local iwi, maori get preferential healthcare, etc etc. They even want to rename New Zealand “Aotearoa” without any referendum.

The crazy thing is, it is the cartoonist that has been cancelled (previously) by the MSM, not the PM for overseeing radical, undemocratic, ill thought out and destructive change.

  She’ll be cancelled at the next election. Its a pity she is the best that labor has got otherwise she’d probably be cancelled now.

It’s quite funny this so called co-governance because it ain’t that at all. Everyone’s getting all excited and / or their knickers in a twist over a Labour Party flim flam, con job just like Helen Clark did with the Foreshore and Seabed Act. Many think that Labour are pro Maori and they say all the right words but if you have a close look at their actions they are anything but, especially in the 21st Century.

When Maori won the right to go to Court over the foreshore and seabed Helen Clark immediately legislated so that the whole matter couldn’t be tested in Court where it should have been. There was a 50/50 chance that Maori may have either won or lost their case. That’s why the Maori Party was formed by existing Labour MPs who split from the Labour Party. They went on in 2008 to be in government with National for 9 years achieving much for their people. Whanau Ora would be their best and long lasting policy.

Under this government, Maori are losing left right and centre in health, education and economically. Maori and Pacific Island deprivation has grown, much by deliberate Labour Party policy. Yet the Labour Maori MPs do nothing for their own people. So I wouldn’t be concerned about co-governance. That’s a side show and deliberate distraction by Labour because they know that it riles one section of the population up and engenders false hope in another, whilst distracting people from the lack of action and basic policy errors made by Labour.

  Maybe Helen Clark knew the Courts were already stacked with Judges in favour so the issue would not be considered on the evidence? For example, didn’t the Chief Justice take the chance on a similar issue after many years to reverse a case she had once lost?

I am extremely worried about Co-Governance. Whatever the motives behind it, it is a racist move. Health, 3 Waters, council appointments – NO thanks.
