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.
The BBC’s crisis serves to remind us that credible media isn’t a luxury – it’s a democratic necessity. We should not have to put up with biased media. Journalism should be independent, impartial, and balanced. Their mission should be to inform, not manipulate.
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.

In the third decade of the twenty-first century, approaching 200 years since the formation of New Zealand, the country is divided by race; this ‘partnership’ is intended by its most determined supporters to result in apartheid, a dual system of government.

Our public institutions have been captured by a form of cultural Marxism that embraces race-based identity politics and Te Tiriti social justice.
By putting the Māori view of nature in the single science gallery, Te Papa seems to promote the postmodernist ideas that there are no universal truths and that all knowledge is culturally derived. This confused and simplistic ideology seeks to undermine science and other narratives construed as Eurocentric and colonial.
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.
