Road trip on Labour Weekend
This is what I’m doing this weekend. It should be a great event, and it will be great to catch up with people I haven’t seen in years.
I think its been 14 years since I first did some work on a multimedia presentation to help out with the research project. Its sad to read that [...]

I am so glad Hone Harawira is in Parliament
With the major parties happy to let the Australian Governments blatant human rights abuses pass with no comment. One of the few voices calling it like it is is Harawira.
“Hawawira [sic] said John Howard is “a racist bastard” trying to impose racist policies on a people who can’t fight back.”
You can see the full article [...]
When you win the US Open you are a New Zealander, if you rob a bank you are a Maori
So Michael Campbell won the US Open golf tournament today. And he has been
reported as a great
New Zealander now. Of course if he had done something wrong instead, he
would then be reported to be Maori.
Not to diminish from what is undoubtedly a great achievement, but its just
funny that in the climate of Iwi vs [...]

No you cant have the beaches, here have some cancer instead.

It said Maori women were screened for cervical cancer less often than
non-Maori women and when abnormalities were found, they waited longer for
investigations such as biopsies.
Maori women were twice [...]
Poxy little Islands in the Pacific
Well we are sure acting like it. Today was the third and final reading of
the Foreshore and Seabed legislation, amended after the select committee
process to put into Crown ownership of all the seabed and foreshore rich
pakeha dont already own.
So basic logic here “Logic 101 : Its THEFT mate” if the crown needed
legislation to get ownership, [...]
A good page listing treaty violations.
I found this today when I was
doing a google just to see what information about the Treaty of Waitangi
was online. Its a really good list of treaty breaches, and goes a long way
to explaining why the latest seabed and foreshore legislation is so hard to
bear. It just builds on a 164 year history of unjust [...]
Well I call that a landslide.
The
By-election results are in. And the Maori party and Tariana Turia not
suprisingly cleaned up. If I was labour id be worried, theyve pretty much
thrown away 7 safe seats. Not to mention the list vote.

Hikoi to Parliament
Well the Hikoi was huge … it would be hard for the Government to ignore,
but im sure they will try. They seem to have a pretty good knack of ignoring
what people are saying at the moment. We’ll see what happens I guess.
