A declaration of intent to steal…with John Key’s connivance.

A DECLARATION OF EQUALITY
I’ve taken the liberty of excerpting the whole thing.

On Friday the Waitangi Tribunal is expected to report back on the Maori Council’s claim for the ownership of New Zealand’s fresh water. This deadline was requested by the government to prevent a delay in their asset sales programme and a potential loss of value for New Zealand taxpayers.

The co-chairman of the Maori Council, Sir Eddie Durie, was interviewed by TVNZ on their Q+A programme on Sunday in an attempt to better understand the reasoning behind their water claim.[1] He explained that “Maori law” is different from “pakeha law” and that under the “Maori legal system”, Maori had customary rights to water that should continue indefinitely. Where Maori still live near water, he argued, they should receive a royalty on all water taken by other groups; if they have moved away they should be eligible to draw from a compensation fund. He implied that compensation should be available for water used without payment over the last 150 years.

In the interview he explained, “property rights are to be determined according to the customs and traditions of Maori. That’s a long established principle in New Zealand and internationally, and we’re saying that that right which was established in that way, through customary use, should continue to be recognised to the extent that it is still feasible to do so.”

Essentially, he is saying ‘Maori law’, not the New Zealand legal system, should be used to determine the future of Maori interests in New Zealand.

Sir Eddie Durie, a former High Court Judge and Law Commissioner, spent more than 20 years as Chairman of the Waitangi Tribunal. With such radical views, it is little wonder that the decisions produced by the Tribunal over the years have been so outrageously biased towards tribal claimants. To expect the Tribunal to deliver anything but a biased decision is simply fanciful. The Government is right to ignore the decisions of the Tribunal, but it should go further and abolish the Tribunal entirely. That would certainly be a more honest response than pretending it is anything but a vehicle and gravy train for radical iwi.

It is also no wonder that National’s foreshore and seabed legislation removed public ownership, with the Attorney-General Chris Finlayson appointing Sir Eddie Durie to chair the Ministerial Taskforce on the law change!

Ever since former Prime Minister Helen Clark changed the law to close off historic Treaty claims to the Waitangi Tribunal in 2008, the tribal elite have been inventing new ways to perpetuate the Treaty claims industry. John Key strengthened their cause when he signed New Zealand up to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, as part of a back-room coalition deal with the Maori Party.

Article 25 of that Declaration states that “Indigenous peoples have the right to maintain and strengthen their distinctive spiritual relationship with their traditionally owned or otherwise occupied and used lands, territories, waters and coastal seas and other resources and to uphold their responsibilities to future generations in this regard.”

Article 32 then suggests that governments have a duty to undertake special consultation with such groups “prior to the approval of any project affecting their lands or territories and other resources, particularly in connection with the development, utilization or exploitation of mineral, water or other resources.” It then goes on to assert that “effective mechanisms for just and fair redress” must be provided.[2]

It is utterly contemptible that John Key and his National Government could sell their principles to appease the separatist Maori Party.

The bigger issue here however, is that New Zealanders are being treated like fools by the iwi elite. For decades foolish politicians have pranced and danced to their tune, willingly donating endless taxpayer resources into the coffers of these private corporations – and allowing radicals to exert influence from within their own ranks.

We can now clearly see the result of that track record of appeasement – and a glaring lack of political courage – in the rise of radical tribal activists, the rise of corporate iwi pursuing more and bigger claims, in rackets and rorts, and in an increasingly divided country where people are progressively separated by laws on the basis of their race.

First it was the Treaty claims with politicians turning a blind eye to the fact that all of the remotely genuine claims had already been settled multiple times by earlier governments.

Now claims are becoming more demanding and absurd. For example, Tuhoe demanded ownership of the entire half a million acres (2,127 sq km) of the Urewera National Park – in spite of the long established convention that the conservation estate would not be used for Treaty settlements. What’s worse is that the Treaty Settlement Minister Chris Finlayson agreed to the deal! It was only the intervention of the Prime Minister – when he realised how strong public opposition was to the plan to give away the National Park to a tribal group – that he pulled the plug. Whether the Urewera National Park will be part of a new settlement agreement with Tuhoe remains to be seen.

But the tribal elite don’t stop at land. With the assistance of the Waitangi Tribunal, iwi are claiming ownership of New Zealand’s flora and fauna – our plants and wildlife including their genetic material. That claim has been presented to the government and is awaiting their response. New claims for Mataitai, or customary fishing areas, are now coming through, which give local tribes the right to seize control of areas for themselves, locking everyone else, including local fishers, out – all under the guise of environmental concerns, fishing stock regeneration, sustainability or some other worthy excuse.

New claims are being lodged by tribal corporations for ownership of the mineral-rich coastline – thanks to National’s appalling Marine and Coastal Area Act. And let’s not forget their successful claim for the electromagnetic spectrum.

The tribal elite’s next claim is for the very governance of New Zealand.

The Maori Council and the other elite tribal groups will be carefully watching the progress of the Maori Party’s $4 million constitutional review. If they succeed in persuading New Zealanders that the time is right for the introduction of a new written constitution that enshrines the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi as superior law, “Maori law” and privilege will become entrenched and non-Maori New Zealanders will become second-class citizens in their own land.

What’s worse is that any attempt by any future government to change such an arrangement would be struck down as unconstitutional. David Round, a constitutional law expert at Canterbury University and this week’s NZCPR Guest Commentator, says that if the Treaty gets into a new constitution in any way at all, New Zealand would be “irrevocably stuffed”.

David explains, “The present proposed constitutional review is not just another crime against the common good in this sorry catalogue. It is far worse; it would be the death-blow to our country. So far, everything that has been done can be undone. A ‘constitution’ is simply the rules by which something is constituted and organised. We have a constitution now. At present, though, our constitution is not found in any one document which can be labelled ‘The Constitution’, but in principles of the common law and in long-standing customs and practices (much, although not all, originally inherited from England), and in many Acts of Parliament.

“The fundamental principle of our constitution is (at present) the ancient one we inherited from the common law of England that Parliament is supreme. That principle is not found in any Act of Parliament, it is simply ancient law. It is also, of course, a principle consistent with democratic government. As things stand at present, then, any Parliament could abolish racial privilege and restore the equality of citizens and government for the common good. But if the Maori Party has its way ~ if we come to be saddled with an over-riding written constitution which controlled what Parliament may and may not do, and which declared that the ‘principles of the Treaty’ were a higher law which always prevailed ~ then Parliament would not be supreme in future. If future Parliaments were to attempt to establish and restore true racial equality, then, its laws could be struck down by judges who considered that those laws breached a ‘Treaty principle’ of eternal special status for those of Maori descent.” To read David’s Charter article, please click here>>>

As you will be aware, ever since the New Zealand Centre for Political Research was first established in 2005, we have been fighting against racial privilege. We firmly believe that all New Zealanders should be equal in the eyes of the law. There should be no special treatment based on race. With the Maori Party spending $4 million to convince New Zealanders that a new “written” constitution based on the Treaty as supreme law, is in the best interest of the country, we are taking a stand.

Legal and official racism has gone too far in this country. The public is being betrayed by politicians who do not have the fortitude to protect the public interest and call an end to the grievance industry. Treaty sympathisers in the public service and Judiciary are complicit, with race based preference now infiltrating every crevice within our public institutions.

In the words of David Round:

“We, New Zealanders, having founded our society in the equality of comradeship, and living here at home in the land we have made, utterly oppose any laws which establish or promote racial distinction or division. There shall be one law for all. We have had enough of official and legal racism. We do not request the following items, we demand them:

· We refuse to accept any reference to the Treaty of Waitangi or its principles in any constitutional document.

· We require that such references be removed from all existing legislation.

· We require that race-based Parliamentary seats be abolished.

· We require that race-based representation on local bodies be abolished.

· We require that the Waitangi Tribunal, which has outlived any usefulness it may have had, be abolished.
And we pledge ourselves to oppose and resist all those of whatever rank or degree who, whether by force or the devious processes of the law, attempt to impose the fetters of racial inequality on the free citizens of New Zealand.”

      hmmm. I wonder if the Executor of the Estate is one of those squatting illegally in the house. And I wonder if that person bothered to inform WINZ that Mrs Dunn was gone to a better place and so they (WINZ) should stop paying her? :popcorn

      I’ve long believed the MSM look for the most ignorant, in-bred moron they can find to interview for their articles. Take a look next time a “bystander” is interviewed on the news. And this article is no exception:

      “One Havelock North resident, who declined to be named, said the ideology featuring on the flyers was “bull****”.

      “We’re supposed to be multicultural and one people,” he said. “All that does is stir up racial hatred and is intent on dividing the country.””

      How in the hell can “we” (whoever “we” are) be both “multicultural” and “one people”?

      Perhaps “it is alright to be white”, should have included ..

    With the very greatest of respect to Dr Newman (and she is one of the few to have entered the Parliament for whom I have any respect whatever), I must disagree with this paragraph:

    “It is utterly contemptible that John Key and his National Government could sell their principles to appease the separatist Maori Party.”

    While John Key and his Government are utterly contemptible, it is equally true that neither John Key nor his National Government have principles to sell. They exist only to keep their grubby mitts on the golden ring of Power. If they need to sell their ancestry, their progeny and that of every single other New Zealander (including, by the way, the vast vast majority of Maori who do not buy into the Apartheid dictum of the Corporate IWI and their corrupt, pet Attorney-General), then sobeit, if it means John Key remains Prime Minister following the 2014 General Election.

    John Key and his entire Caucus are scum. Not one member of the National caucus crossed the floor to vote against the Marine & Coastal Area Act. Not one has spoken out on behalf of his or her Constituents (you know, the people who pay their fucking salary) against the radical Apartheid Aotearoa being established under this utter disgrace of a Government. And I can guarantee you, not one of them will take a stand for Traditional Marriage and the Traditional Family when *that* little piece of social engineering comes up for a vote (despite it being a Conscience Vote, anyone who votes the “wrong way” will be punished without mercy. I had a very interesting chat with a former member of the Party hierarchy the other day, who described the treatment meted out when he failed to so much as laugh sufficiently enthusiastically at a joke made by Bill “Mr 21%” English at the Party Conference. Records are kept, I’m told, and those who vote the “wrong way” do not get promoted).

    They are scum, for whom a charge of Treason would be entirely justified. And, following trial, a length of hemp rope and the nearest lamp-post too good an ending. (little wonder the death penalty for treason was abolished by David Lange, innit?)
