Simeon Brown committed to removing Iwi from CCC

[Lilith7]

even as a non maori I find all these attempts to undermine Maori representation gains abhorrent...

I guess when the next election rolls around Nats spin doctors will be blaming it all on the coalition partners and seriously start to distance themselves from *those* opinions...

I think you're probably right - they'll be blamed for everything. "It wasn't us, it was all their fault! We were led astray."

They just seem to have not the slightest clue about the number of  Pakeha who are appalled at what they're trying to do. 

They forget that Enzed is a bad place to be a racist because we've all intermarried so much that you can't tell who has Maori ancestry. And naturally you certainly can't tell who has Maori descendants, as I & many of us have.
