Ngatiwai’s actions were unacceptable. Their breach of the law was a deliberate criminal act, which put in danger one of New Zealand’s most iconic reserves. They should be prosecuted with the maximum penalties imposed as a deterrent to others considering similar action.
If the “Deep State” is defined as a power-base within a government that operates in pursuit of its own agendas and goals instead of those of the country’s democratically elected leaders, then New Zealand has a serious problem. Our public institutions have been captured by a form of cultural Marxism that embraces race-based identity politics and Te Tiriti social justice.
Community disillusionment over councils going off the rails was on full display last weekend as voters reshaped local government in the 2025 elections. Across the country, high-spending councillors were booted out and replaced by those promising more responsible financial management, greater community engagement, and increased accountability.
With Council voting likely to end up at around 40 percent - only half of the general election turnout – the only hope for a better outcome is if sensible people, who don’t normally bother voting, can be encouraged to do so. So here’s the challenge: please ensure everyone you know votes - and says ‘no’ to Maori wards and left-wing capture.
The ‘Maorification’ of New Zealand is not by accident. For decades tribal leaders have been plotting and scheming how to get their hands on the levers of power. Their objective is full control of our country. It is now obvious that they are a long way down the path to achieving their goal. If there’s no counter-movement, they will succeed.
The key decisions that set the food price crisis in motion were made by Labour. Framed as bold climate leadership by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, her 2018 Captain’s Call banning offshore oil and gas exploration, and the 2019 Zero Carbon Act introducing the harshest emissions restrictions in the world, came with predictable consequences: energy shortages and rising fuel prices, as the cost of carbon soared from $17 in 2017 to $88.50 in 2022.
Last week the Supreme Court delivered the second of its two-part judgement on the first Marine and Coastal Area Act case to progress its way through to our highest court. The first decision released last December put “tikanga” or Maori custom at the heart of all coastal claim decision-making, while the second, which only affects the mouths of navigable rivers, will end up opening up the country’s waterways for tribal claim.
Stopping the tribal takeover is what National, ACT and New Zealand First promised to do when they agreed to prioritise “Ending race-based policies” in their Coalition Agreement. By “ending race-based policies” and expunging all references to “race” and “Maori” from our Statute books (excluding Treaty settlement legislation), New Zealand would join over half of all OECD countries that have adopted a similar “colourblind” approach.
Forty-two councils are set to hold pivotal referenda on the future of Maori seats in October, yet few New Zealanders appear to grasp just how high the stakes actually are. Proponents of Maori sovereignty understand the gravity: losing these seats would deal a crushing blow to their push for control over local councils. More critically, it could jeopardise their race-based parliamentary seats and their He Puapua plan to dominate “Aotearoa” by 2040.
With clear evidence that children from single parent households are more likely to be poor, drop out of school, and suffer from health and emotional problems, it is shameful that a disastrous policy that leaves children vulnerable to serious harm, is still in place
