    In today's Herald there is an article by Jim Hopkins about the colour of people and how little it really means. Makes good reading

    It's a very Maori way of looking at it, as the erect penis is a symbol of power/life force ... and I have to admit, the "dick" in the flag is dropping downwards ...

    No, we don't all accept that as a "Maori" flag.
    So really its just a Maori Rorschach test.
    I don't see any dicks in the image

    Hey guy's we are after all a very young country and if it's worth anything it's worth sorting out!

    What we really need right now is a really threatening clearly identifiable common enemy threatening us to drive us back together again!

    Life was shit hot following WW2 our world was full of love and respect.

    It will only get back like that if we "all" work on it together and be a little thoughtful of what we think and say to one another, not being PC but honest and open discussion.

    We need each other to make this country work properly and we need this country to identify our place in the world and I am proud to be totally committed to that!

    Adage: A country that doesn't make mistakes is probably not making anything!

    Could not agree more but if you see my last Post KEY COMES OUT all Key is doing is making our country a laughing stock. As for Team New Zealand..... all I can say is go for it Robbie.

    As have I Number One ... but in the "free" society we all enjoy, they (as we are/do) are entitled to protest at what they believe to be wrong. As a general rule ... majority rules. Minoritys suffer ... regardless of merit/justification of the protest.

    Some ... as in your example ... have views that will be seen by the majority ... as bullshit. His "Uncle Hone" may not have the political clout (anymore) to be of much help to him either ...

    Like that buck tooth maggot did in the wearable arts fiasco?
    And the blatant art deception?
    Key was just hamming it up for an appreciative crowd.
    Derr Clerke lied about her art skills.
    Next.

    Correct as far as this country goes John,the same ones keep whinging n wanting,the same ones keep getting somewhat similar to a spoilt child methinks,a simple "no" would go a long way to "sorting out".

    The one thing I enjoy about Waitangi day is, that it reminds me of all the other really nice Maori citizens who are just getting on with life, looking after their kids and generally contributing to society!

    The rest of the year we only hear about the deadbeats with less than honourable intentions screaming, ME Me Me Me!

    The loudest so called Maori "leaders" telling everybody else to fuck off etc are of very mixed blood, have changed their name to sound Maori and claim to represent "our people"!

    The press never challenge their right to represent and quote them without question regardless of what they say, who is at fault here?

    Personally I am happy with the Maori party so far but then again I am not Maori!

    The subject of the thread, Waitangi day?, it will survive and prosper and so will New Zealand!

    Like the man in the cheese advertisements generally says, "Good things take time"!

    These people are not "leaders". The press holds them up as that, but they are not our leaders.

    The fact that the press holds them up as leaders creates many problems for us ... one being that Pakeha New Zealand thinks these people speak for us. They do not.

    Well put.
    But I suppose that is politics. Put a bunch of people that no one really likes into a place where they represent us.

    Hmmm ... have a look at what some members of KB call us and think about us ... then try to argue that we are not mistrated in our own land ...
