Red tape around Waikato river water for Auckland

[Kacee]

seems like they want to own everything and get millions out of settlement claims, I'd like to know what they are actually doing to help their own with the level of poverty so many are living in given they have these millions

Completely agree

I agree as well.  I heard a Maori man on talkback last night saying where they want to take the water from is where the women used to wash the dead bodies so it is sacred there---not last week but during the early days of the white man arriving.  Even their 'ghosts' would have long age been washed out to sea by now.  Plain greedy and nothing seems to be done to help house their poor or those with health problems.  Covid won't break this country but their continuing demands are yet nothing gets handed down to 'our people' who refuse to acknowledge any other race in their ancestry.
