fully one fifth of Aotearoa/New Zealand’s population is Māori—a million tangata whenua—and the current conservative coalition government introducing the far-right ACT party’s racist colonialist “Treaty Principles” [Wrecking Ball] Bill is damaging the entire country. that garbage bill deserves to be ripped up, stomped on, and stopped cold in its tracks. shame on every MP and party that voted for it on the first reading. #NZpol #ToitūTeTiriti #TogetherForTeTiriti

When called on to cast Te Pāti Māori's vote, MP Hana-Rawhiti Maipi-Clarke instead launched into a haka, ripping a copy of the legislation in half.

"We must recognize that our radicalism and our indignation will not carry the day."We must recognize that our radicalism and our indignation will not carry the day. We must do messy, uncomfortable work. That is the path toward transformation. It is an uncertain path, but the path exists. We will need patience and humility to traverse it."

those 3 VPNs are: ExpressVPN, CyberGhost, and Private Internet Access.
