A109 Light Utility Helicopter flight with mayor Gisborne City from the air in November 2023.

Opinion

Despite all the “noise”, the new Government passed the annual day of controversy with flying colours, given all MSM (mainstream media) could come up with was “he copied that from last year”, in referring to Luxon’s speech. Straw clutching of the highest order.

Even Tova the Terror had nothing. She should have it pointed out that the Treaty contains no “principles”, rather articles. Semantics, yes, but those who live by the sword also die by it.

Perhaps now we can collectively focus on moving this country forward in an egalitarian manner, for which this country was once well known.
