Email says Judith Collins asked Don Brash to raise $300,000 for billboards on ‘Treaty of Waitangi’ issues

National leader Judith Collins asked Don Brash to raise $300,000 for a billboard campaign attacking the Government on race issues, according to a leaked email from Brash obtained by Stuff.

Collins launched a billboard campaign on Sunday called “Demand The Debate”, seeking to revive public discussion on the controversial He Puapua report. National says it is a blueprint for the Government to stealthily create a new system of separate government for Māori, an allegation the Government rejects.

A different leaked document planning the launch of the campaign suggested Collins would brief “Don B” – although neither of the pair will confirm that they talked.

The email headlined “strictly confidential” was sent in May by Brash to an unknown group of wealthy potential donors.

Pleading with Don Brash to run a race baiting hate campaign against Maori is gasp inducing!

Brash unleashed a bigotry upon this country with his Orewa Speech that we are still attempting to recover from so involving him in yet another divisive race battle is the lowest most ugly politics we get in NZ.

Brash’s Orewa Speech changed politics in New Zealand. His articulation of Māori Privilege, that they had a grievance culture and his one law for all rhetoric  forever caused a Trump orange shit stain on New Zealand’s race relations.

His Speech was the greatest insult since the betrayed promise of the Treaty itself.

Nicky Hager’s magnificent coverage of what was really driving the Orewa Speech in ‘The Hollow Men’ has been utterly ignored by the mainstream media and as such is never front and centre whenever Brash returns from the grave with his latest attempt at legitimacy.

We know from the emails that were leaked to Hager that Brash and the people around Brash who wrote the Orewa Speech KNEW that what they were claiming when it came to Māori privilege and special treatment and the so called grievance industry were all bullshit myths that they couldn’t prove.

They had a media plan to throw journalists off the scent when the media came demanding examples of all this Māori privilege because they knew they couldn’t prove any of the hateful things they were claiming.

They knew they were creating a false fabrication but went ahead with it anyway.

They manipulated us by playing to the worst angels of our nature, and they knew that. The Orewa Speech wasn’t the tell it like it is musings of a polite Gentleman who was prepared to challenge the PC thought Police, this was a carefully stitched together lie of hate that everyone of them knew was false.

That’s not Free Speech, that’s not intellectually courageous, that’s spitefully Machiavellian.

Māori have been horrifically impacted by our brutally passive racism. Māori are 380% more likely to be convicted of a crime and 200% more likely to die from heart disease and suicide. Māori are paid 18% less and 34% leave school without a qualification. Māori die earlier and suffer more. Māori had 95% of their land taken from them in less than a century and were almost wiped out at the turn of the 1900s.

Couple all of that with a pittance in terms of reparations for stolen land, and to have that legacy defined by Don Brash as ‘privilege’, when he fucking knew it was a lie makes Don Brash evil.

To repeat a lie you believe is true is ignorance.

To repeat a lie you know to be untrue is evil.

Brash’s weak chinned, nervous and overtly polite smile in the public eye is always that of the guilty who have managed to get away with a terrible crime. Every desperate stab at legitimising his Orewa Speech like the woeful Hobson’s Choice, reeks of an intellectually guilty conscience in the convulsions of a late mid-life crisis guilt trip.

Judith’s desperation is driven by her personal need to retain the Leadership, no sane Leader would infect themselves with association to Brash unless they had run out of options.

Begging for money from high functioning bigots to fund race baiting propaganda is about as desperate as it gets.

National must surely have decided not to run in the Maori seats now eh?

Ugly, ugly politics.

  1. I won’t hold my breath waiting for the contents of the leaked e-mails to appear in the Main Stream Media!
    Sadly this will further cement ACT in as the ‘haven’ for Right Wing voters, thus widening our political divide and destroying chances for reasoned political debate and compromise.

    • I think you’ll find the problem is lack of debate and tribally based governance being introduced by stealth.

      • Last time I looked there was endless debate in Parliament where proposals are supposed to be debated. All sessions of Parliament are broadcast so how is ‘stealth’ involved?

      • Race baiting is dirty Frankie and that is what it is no matter how you try to spin it. It worked for Brash, Collins hopes it will work for her.And no need to ask why it is race baiting if you’re intelligent as you think you Frankie. Laws don’t need to be broken for something to be described as dirty, think Michell Boag.

  2. Would the Orewa speech be considered hate speech now and would Don Brash get arrested and imprisoned for it?

  3. After Brash’s Orewa speech, Natz support went from 22% to 47%. They had the support of the right-wing media. The right-wing media have done their best to get national and Act back in power and now they’re desperate.

    The fore shore and sea bed debate followed on from it – if Labour didnt change the F & S law Brash would have got in to power and would have had no Maori seats or Maori party. Natz got in next time and didnt change things much. The Maori party were just used by Key – it was treason for Maori politics to support the Tories. It was a shock to see Hone, Mair, and rest of MP in the Tory camp. They wont do that again. MP were dog tucker from the start.

  4. ” Māori are 380% more likely to be convicted of a crime and 200% more likely to die from heart disease and suicide. Māori are paid 18% less and 34% leave school without a qualification. Māori die earlier and suffer more”

    And Maori are the only ones who can change the above self imposed patterns of behaviour.

    Don’r go out and commit crimes
    stay at school and get a good education allowing you to have better job opportunities and thus be paid more
    eat healthy food and exercise (it works out cheaper than living off crap food) and you feel better and have less health issues.

    It aint rocket science

    • Stop talking shit xstraight you don’t know what you are talking about with your outdated racist bigoted uneducated uninformed views. And you don’t know what it is like to be treated like a second class citizen in your own country, to have your land and language taken and almost wiped out, to not get MRIs or cat scans or the best medications, to not be referred to a clinician when you present to your GP or a hospital with an illness and by the time you do its too late. Then there is applying for jobs only to be told you missed out and they give the job to a Pom whose been her 5 minutes cause he or she is the same colour as the person doing the employing. Then we have government agencies that housed us in ghetto state housing areas with cold homes with no carpet or heating but if you were white you got a nice state home in a nice area. And the ghettos we were housed in have now been gentrified thanks to the National party. And last of all Mr racist seen you think you know so much about Maori, can you explain why so many indigenous peoples throughout the world share the same negative statistics?

  5. Judith: Shall I call him “D Brash”? No, too obvious. Let’s go with “Don B”. Yes, that will do.

  6. ‘To repeat a lie you believe is true is ignorance.

    To repeat a lie you know to be untrue is evil.’
    and the famous statement.
    THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS!
    Ayone who has ever talked to a National Party member knows how firmly they hold to the belief that only they are born to rule and any tactic that returns them to power is justifiable.

  7. The only questions are, which political party -National or LINO- constitutes the bigger farce and the bigger threat to survival?

    It seems to me that LINO are in the lead as the bigger farce and the bigger threat to survival at the moment simply because they are in power:

    ‘In the same year that the government declared a climate emergency, imports of an especially dirty type of coal from Indonesia topped a million tonnes for the first time since 2006.

    Last year, 235 kilograms of overseas coal was imported for every New Zealander in order to power homes and businesses. This is also only imported coal; the country also produces coal domestically.

    Ninety-two percent of the imported coal was from Indonesia, and the vast majority of that was a low grade, high emissions type – sub-bituminous coal.

    “Not only are we burning more coal, [but] it’s the dirtiest coal. And it comes from Indonesia where the conditions and the mining is appalling,” Cindy Baxter, an environmental campaigner, said.

    In recent years, low lake levels meant our biggest electricity generator – hydroelectricity – has produced less energy than normal. Natural gas supply has been inconsistent. Coal has been increasingly used as a fuel of last resort to keep the lights on in our homes and businesses.

    It’s also the world’s worst fossil fuel, emitting far more greenhouse gases than any other. It produces carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxides, particulate pollution and heavy metals.

    Coal imports from Indonesia in 2020 totalled 1.084 million tonnes, or just over one billion kilograms. Australia’s the only other significant exporter of coal here, sending over about 10 percent of Indonesia’s total, 95 million kilograms.

    New Zealand’s imported more than a million tonnes from Indonesia only twice in the last 20 years – 2020 and 2006.

    Almost all of it last year – 910 million kilograms – was sub-bituminous coal which must be burned in greater quantities to achieve the same energy output.’

    Fabulous exposing Ardern and her Ministers for their incompetence.
    This is a country they are running not some University socialist ideology.
    I don’t want to be part of their experiment.
