The case not only demonstrated that the Crown was unwilling to put tikanga on trial, but it also highlights how the growing use of tikanga in the legal system is distorting outcomes and undermining the principle of equal justice. In fact, when cultural assertions are used to override clear evidence and established legal standards, the Rule of Law itself is being undermined.
Over last 30 or 40 years judges across the common law anglosphere world have become ever more willing to overrule the democratically elected branches of government. Call this a raw usurpation of power. Or call it judicial activism on steroids. It’s bad in Australia, but worse in New Zealand.
Having seen the disastrous influence of UNDRIP in Canada, the continued existence of the He Puapua framework that Labour put in place to implement the Declaration in New Zealand represents an existential threat to our future. It's time that threat was removed.
It cannot be too strongly emphasised that the body of the common law is predicated on the basis that it is written down in a form which is available to all New Zealand citizens and in that way is knowable in advance of any course of action on which a citizen intends to embark.
New Zealand has one of the world's longest running democracies, but the Maori seats have been weaponised to destroy it. Will the Coalition accelerate the tribal takeover by introducing tikanga into Parliament, or will they honour their election pledge and reject it?
The Court’s role is to interpret and apply the law as Parliament has enacted it, not to substitute its own judgment for that of elected representatives. As the UK Supreme Court has shown, respect for democracy demands judicial discipline, not activism.
Through bullying and intimidation New Zealanders, in all areas of life, from sports to charities to workplaces, have been forced into submission, to effectively bend the knee to a racist culture that glorifies Maori supremacy and an ethos of aggression and violence.
As our mothers will have told us this as we stood staring in to fridge looking for something which is under our nose but often when simple truths are staring us in the face we look the other way rather than face them. Such is happening today on a massive scale threatening to undermine our democracy and our way of life.
If the Coalition refuses to honour its election pledge to amend the Marine and Coast Area Act to deliver what Parliament intended instead of what activist judges have ruled, our coast will end up in the hands of hundreds of tribal groups, who, at the stroke of a pen, could sign lucrative deals with China to exploit the invaluable mineral wealth in our seabed.
Many State institutions have been captured by radicals, through their biased reporting the mainstream media poisons the public’s mind against the new Government, and tribal leaders continue their lust for power, assisted not only by the public sector and the media, but also by the Courts. That is the reality of New Zealand in 2025.
