    us in your own subtle way that you've been lying all along about your

    practice dirty politics of the smelliest kind. Because they consulted with nobody when they did the FTA with China!

    European technology? Most technology is made in Asia these days.

    Made, perhaps, but not necessarily invented; and how do you know there
    is something to be made if it is not the product of original invention
    or discovery?

    All inventions are based on those that have gone before. I am sure there
    are a lot of technical inventions that were not first made in Europe,
    even if they were based on things that were.

    In this instance, from the term, 'European' I infer 'non-maori.'

    Oh, I see. I think 'European' means 'coming from Europe'.

    An annual ritual of coarse self-righteous heckling and manhandling,
    Waitangi Day is nothing but a misery-loves-company occasion for the
    nation to indulge in a public display of corrosive and decadent self-
    abuse. No one other than the crude, sensationalist ratbag media and a
    gaggle of ragged-arsed greasy-sausage sizzlers makes anything out of
    it.

    No good ever comes of it.

    Other than a long weekend (without pay for me, but still worth it).

    I have never doubted for a moment that you already feel your pay is no
    less than your worth.

    Is that a personal attack Newsman? Surely you're above resorting to such.

    Sometimes Rich you are a real asshole!
    Tony

    I was responding to the comment that "Maori Rights are entrenched in
    the TPP," and pointing out that Maori can hav legitimate issues with
    both process, and with issues that ae common to all New Zealanders. A restrictive view of what "Maori" are permitted to be concerned about
    is offensive as I am sure you would agree.

    I do agree but that is not what I meant and you know it. It is also not what I implied and you know it.
    Rich, your desperation driven by blind dogma is going to end in tears, I suggest you get help.
    You seem to think that I am someone who accepts anything the current government proposes but you are delusional if you think that.
    Personal abuse is something that you complain about in others but you are so heavily into it that you are blind to your own significant imperfections! Please debate but if you want to become even more abusive than you have heretofore been then feel free to indulge in personal abuse (if you still can)!.

    I don't know about the merchant banker, but he did risk going on the
    balcony. Paddy Gower summed it up; (see from 2:30 on) "a bit of that
    grinding down third term stuff, happened Helen Clark as well." - along
    with the fiction that Key "couldn't get into the place" regarding
    Waitangi.

    European technology? Most technology is made in Asia these days.

    The PM should just call their bluff and hold a celebration/commemoration
    somewhere else.

    If he can't deal with the critics for one day, he can run away.

    Why? John Key didn't have anything to do with it.

    Its their house, if he can't be humble and listen one day, thats his
    problem.
    He's just a politician, not a king.
    His rights come from others, and the marae is their property.
