Are you a 'Kiwi' or a New Zealander?

All good to call yourself a New Zealander on the net mate but stand up in public and say the same thing if your skins pale and within a week there will be a bunch of beggars knocking on the door with a piece of paper demanding 1/2 of what you grafted for.

This brings back a faint memory of a Census many years back where there were multiple options for ethnicity - and luckily a line for "other"

I think I wrote in "New Zealander" as it was not an option on that Census....

Neither. I'm English.

I think its just splitting hairs.....I see myself as both a New Zealander & a Kiwi...its one and the same to me.

I wouldn't be to worried about beggars taking half of what ''we've" got....we are selling our souls , our country as fast as we can to anyone seemingly.

At least theres a monetary return,in case you didnt notice we have been giving our country away for decades

I don't care what I'm called - as long as it's not late for dinner!

Get a life. What's wrong with being referred to by one of our national symbols?

Also, you obviously have absolutely no appreciation of the value of bio-diversity.

My Sister in Law lives 6 months on a canal boat in France, she was really wound up about the flag and being confused for Aussies....oh dear.

I don't care when I travel overseas as long as no one thinks I'm American.
