New Zealand's Treaty of Waitangi debate is increasingly partisan - left and right voters are now 34 points apart in support for removing the Treaty from law.

In my latest post, I explore what the data shows and what it means for 2026. #nzpol #tetiriti

Please please _please_ submit today - final deadline - on the replacements to the RMA. Unsurprisingly, given those putting them forward, they are deeply problematic for both planet and people :(

Some schools defy government move on Te Tiriti o Waitangi

One says upholding the treaty is the right thing to do and part of its "civic responsibility".

Removing Treaty responsibility from school boards undoes decades of progress

Taking away the duty of boards to “give effect” to te Tiriti o Waitangi undermines the expectation that schools should work for Maori as well as for anyone else.

""All this week, a group of MPs have been meeting to hear public submissions about the Regulatory Standards Bill.

And many of these submissions have sought to do just that - explain why it should include Te Tiriti o Waitangi."

“The compulsory Te Tiriti education at the University of Auckland is not a burden. It’s a gift. It’s the bare minimum. It’s a necessary starting point for migrants, especially for caste-privileged Indian migrants like Dr Parmar, to begin undoing the toxic ideologies we bring with us.“
