  1. Awesome debate !!! thoroughly enjoyed it. Very exciting stuff.

    I can see what Hone is saying, but when it comes to the Maori party it is not going to happen. As was pointed out, the Maori Party is embedded with National. Hone will never be able to drag the Maori Party away from National, and a vote for the Maori party is a vote for National is still applicable today as it was back then in 2014, 2011 etc

    Why wasn’t it brought up how the Maori party betrayed Maori by it’s propping up of the National government over the last 8 1/2 years? It wasn’t Labour that threw the people of Glenn Innes and else where out onto the streets. Where was the Maori Party then when the National government they supported did that? The silence from the Maori party was deafening.

    The Maori party SUPPORTED National’s legislative changes to sell off state housing.

    Look how the Maori party continued to support the National government when John key sold off our water rights along with our money generating power company assets to his foreign interests.

    How has the Seabed and Foreshore legislation changed under National? Isn’t it basically still intact? So why did the Maori party continue to betray it’s people?

    The Maori party have shown time and time again, they cannot be trusted, they don’t walk the talk with their continued support of this corrupt, treasonous National government. It’s obvious why Tuku Morgan didn’t show up, it would be difficult for him to try and defend the indefensible.

    • “The Maori party SUPPORTED National’s legislative changes ….” that gave the single digit salute to disabled people and their chosen family carers.

      “The Maori party can’t be trusted.”

      You can say that again.

      The Maori party can’t be trusted.

      The feed was struggling last night…but my impression was that Willy, Hone and Kelvin had got together for a bit of mutual ego stroking and a kiss and make up session.

      I was expecting more.

  2. There is no point trying to get the left to attack each other – they now know, with such things as the agreement between Labour and Greens, that they have work together to get the National party OUT!
    Hone knows this better than anyone, and will do what it takes to get into power, to fight for all New Zealanders.
    If Maori are lifted up, the rest of New Zealand WILL follow.
    Time to remember who we are as a country.

  3. It takes more than sledging & needling a bolshy drunk in parliament …..as I suspect Kelvin did when when Key grabbed for the gutter in his “ you support the rapist s” mouth spew. …. very WWF

    It takes far far more than that to make me overlook or forget who Kelvin used to help get himself elected into parliament …..

    A truly horrible paddock hunting, shit shooting, bromosexual appearing, Dirty politics revolving, hard right wing manipulator and smear artist plus self proclaimed ‘rat fucker……., in addition to being a piece of dirt to lazy to hunt or learn the basics of shooting correctly… but wanting ( and paying ?) to kill something with his guns anyway…… and a chum of whale oil for another tick in his personality scumbag collum ……

    “This pointed to Simon Lusk setting the terms. He trades on a huntin’, fishin’ and shootin’ image. TV3’s social media trailers followed suit, but also promised Story would reveal Simon Lusk’s “next political target”.

    The hunting footage on Story was a distraction, and confusing for the audience.

    Viewers were told they were “in the bush” and bagged two deer with five shots, but Simon Lusk was shown shooting a deer through what looked like a farm gate. …. ( ** I can also add in this weird bromosexual photo Lusk shows that he shoots a rifle like cameron slater boxes …. embaressingly and without a clue … is he holding a handbag ?)

    The target appeared to be in a tidy paddock, with a cow or bull in the background. ….(** …… readers who think that paddock hunting is not like real hunting would be 100% correct …. its most often involves paying to kill an animal that can not get away from you ….. good wholesome gun snuff … minimal to zero shooting skills required as shown by Lusk.

    And How much time does it take to drive to a farm and shoot a animal in a paddock ???…. even allowing for shit shooting.

    Whats the real purpose of these ‘hunting trips’ one wonders …

    Hypothetically if lusk and slater were rooting each other….. that would defiantly count as rat(s) fucking wouldn’t it ???

    It would also make me see lost sole slater in a tough new light ….. If I hung around prostitutes a lot like him …. but only fucked my smelly hairy paddock Bro …… well that would be doing it very tough in my book…..

    Anyway I’ve been side tracked ………………..

    It appears all the parties ……. apart from the greens…… were in on the take down of the mana party last election ….. who knew that wanting to ensure kids got fed at school was so dangerous for new zealand …

    I get the feeling Labour may just be a ‘vehicle’ for Kelvin …… maybe he and nash could try a takeover of nz first when winstons done ….. they should watch out for rat bites though.

    “Simon Lusk also claimed on Story he had been instrumental in unseating Mana Party co-leader Hone Harawira in the last election.

    Unnamed “businessmen” had paid thousands for that, he said. And in conversation with his co-host last Monday, Duncan Garner said money had been paid to get Maori electors to vote in Te Tai Tokerau.

    Was political operative Simon Lusk really paying people on behalf of clients to influence an election? Disappointingly, no more was said about this claim……”

    and

    ……” Simon Lusk said:Iwi now have extensive databases of members who they can easily mobilise. Assembling a team of 50 or 100 iwi members to get out the vote is straightforward, legal and effective if it is possible to raise some koha.

    He added that “if you’re not paying for votes or offering anything in exchange for a vote, or treating,” it is not against the law. But that statement didn’t answer key questions: How much was paid? By whom? And for what purpose?”

    I hope Kelvin cleans up his act this time around …..we know rats like lusk never will …..

    rat to the core
