Why are the media/govt so surprised about this "increase" in negative sentiment when it seems that the media are provoking it through maori language every day, not just maori language week which by the looks of things should be done away with at this rate, then we have the govt forcing upon us "co-governance" and He Puapua, etc.
All the issues are just solutions looking for a problem.
All this co-governance is exactly the opposite of what it means.
Its time to treat everyone equal, no need for a race based "maori" health system.
I even have maori friends that are unhappy with the way things are going too. Its not racist.
Peeni Henare himself says here that he has been called a Kupapa by his own people!
What does that say?
Whats up with "Aotearoa New Zealand" at the moment? They should just use one name or the other. You wont even find Aotearoa written in the treaty because they didnt even come up with that word until after the treaty was signed.
T─ümaki Makaurau is not even the real maori name for Auckland, its essentially a part of the city such as east Tamaki, Manakau, Manurewa, etc.
So much maori spoken on TVNZ with no subtitles too, whats even the point of a maori channel? At least they often give subtitles unlike TVNZ! If they want us to actually learn maori, at least let us know whats being said.
The criticism of this is not racist, its the opposite, it seems some maori are trying to segregate themselves and it needs to stop.
We are one people, one nation. We are supposed to come together.

He whakaputanga is the true "maori" government where all of us are treated the same regardless of race.
Go to one of your local meetings if you want to learn more about it.
There is definitely a big division among maori right now and its not really even a maori/pakeha conflict, its happening within their own people. We can help them, but we are going about it the wrong way.
