Post Pandemic Lockdown Scenarios

[MaxPenguin]

Why do the maoris think they are so entitled?

The article with dover Samuels was referring to people who lived in remote areas accessed only by boat who wanted to fish..

It appears someone is having difficulty grasping the basic concept of the Government's policy. It's quite simple really, it's stay home.

If you don't have to leave the house for employment or other essential business you stay home. As simple as that is, there will no doubt still be those who have difficulty understanding it.

Level three will be more relaxed. This morning I saw that described as,
"Like level 4, but with fish and chips."

Yeah, he made it very clear that "it's those bloody jaffas that come up from Auckland causing all the trouble up here"
He seemed all fired up & angry over fuck all.
Imagine if an Aucklander got on the news all angry like & said, "it's those niggas coming down from northland causing all the problems"

Jaffa is a multi racial term for Aucklanders.

Jaffa is a multi racial term for Aucklanders.

It's also a derogatory term, like nigga.

but its one that has nothing to do with race but simple geography, regardless of race
I can't see why bob struggles though, one a minor offence based on geopgraphy the other is a highly offensive term that harks back to slavery of an entire race.
whilst both might be considered derogatory the other is highly offensive to a large proportion of the world population and its use in this case by bb was purely designed to offend.

I struggle with Dover being a double standard hypocrite. That's all.
He's happy to dish out derogatory terms & show no respect to a large group with no repercussions.
He was all fired up & full of his own shit.
I though, hes too old to be doing meth.
I guess you don't remember the Paul Holmes "cheeky darkie" incident?

Some of those described as Jaffas are a tad over sensitive. A couple from north of the Bombays were passing through Taranaki and stopped at Stratford for a flat white. When the coffee was served there was a jaffa on each saucer. They reportedly took this as a personal insult. It wasn't, it was just how that shop served coffee.

Like the complaint to the race relations people by an Asian customer of a courier company. The courier signed "covid19" due to contactless policies. The customer took it as a racist dig due to where covid19 started.

That's absolutely disgusting...............fancy mixing flat white coffee and a jaffa.

Don't forget Paul Henry's "dipshit/dickshit" incidents with Delhi's Chief Minister...

Various items arrive on saucers to accompany coffee, possibly emulating the biscotti idea. Biscotti, unlike the little chocolate fish and other msc chocolate items, doesn't melt. Neither does the chocolate in a Jaffa, well not that we can see.

i remember, it was over the top for what was a comment designed to gain attention and not meant to be derogatory i also remember Dover getting pissed and peeing in a hotel corridor.
he was often an embarrassment to both Maori and politicians. He no doubt still is.
He was likely, like a lot of his other contemporaries an alcoholic.

Along with lange, Peters and numerous others, including from memory Paul Homes
i was neither a fan of either but don't confuse that with my opinion that it being okay to throw out racist terms in reference to a comment a Maori happens to make, just because he is a maori and saying stuff.

i recall he said this

Mr Samuels, a former Maori Affairs Minister, said he remained opposed to dedicated council seats for Maori even though the election had delivered a regional council without tangata whenua representation. He believed councillors should be elected solely according to their track record
