1) there is so much that is wrong about this, that I cannot even think where to start.
2) I used to think that Pita Sharples was a pragmatic, realistic type of guy....emphasis on used to.

So because people describe you as the "maori fella" you or your children should be able to gain free entry into university?Originally Posted by oldguy
If you cant pass level 1 NCEA you must have a serious mental problem or be seriously under motivated. I'd say the last one is the problem with the majority of Maori in the NZ school system. So what is the point of providing them with even less insentive to work hard at school? That is what Mr Sharples is proposing!
I'd hate to be John Key when journalists ask his opinion on the views of the Maori party.... He has to be diplomatic and PC. Look at the results of this poll for goodness sake.

Sadly it goes both ways..
Like its my fault the English got here and never mind my pre maori- treaty ancestors who came here.
I am thrown in a labeled box too - Im white therefore I had something to do with signing of the the treaty??
..never mind my part maori great nephews and great neices have the same Germanic and Scottish blood in them as I do .. never mind I have some terrific absolutly terrific maori freinds.
Comes down to respect of each others cultures not just looking at everything from one angle all the time..

Seems they are trying to take a shot at Student Allowance.
If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

the dole not enough?

That's one of the reasons. Only another 35 to go.
If I taught kids in this demographic, I'd be slapping by forehead in complete and utter disbelief right about now, thinking: great, now those kids who aren't arsed to do much work, are now going to be even more inattentive and disruptive (impacting those who actually do have to work hard to gain uni entry qualifications).
Un-fecking-believable.
He must have been smoking some real good sh*t to dream that one up.

I don't recall saying anything of the sort,
tell me out of all those who go to uni, how many make it any better in life than those that just leave school and go to work, while those at uni spend years studying wanting handouts from the government help pay there student loans, then pissing of over sea's.
while the poorly ol school dropout working in his/her crap job since he or she left school has been contributing to this country so they can be treated like second class because they don't have the education.

Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

Whip it, whip it good!
They are the poorer for making that judgement oldguy. Ignorance is not just confined to the poorly educated you know, there are a mountain of well educated wankers out there too
Comfortably numb
You need more than just "poorly ol' school dropouts" to make this place succeed. They's just the drones.
I take it you don't use the products of roading designers, aircraft engineers, horticulturalists, chemical engineers, civil engineers, electronics designers, food technicians or vehicle designers, or the services of doctors, vets, lawyers, meteorologists, economists or traffic design engineers?
You would be pretty cold, sick, uncomfortable, hungry and broke without a few intellectuals around
Meeeeeeeeeh

+1 At least one person has got it right, besides the ones who jump the wagon and bash Maori at any given opportunity.

Dr "P" Sharples should lay off the drugs and remember his place in society.
