"For those who want to see Te Tiriti [Ō Waitangi] upheld in our country’s systems of power, it’s time to vote for the kaupapa, not a party, writes Tina Ngata. This is the first of an occasional series of election columns by Tina leading up to the general election on November 10."

"Honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi in the education system does not require perfection. It requires good faith. It requires the Crown to act as the partner it promised to be. To come to the table before decisions are made, not after," he said. #nzpol #education #TeTiritiOWaitangi #ToitūTeTiriti #enrol #vote #EnrolAndVote
Waitangi Tribunal told draft history curriculum badly written and inaccurate
