Thankyou
Our people are hurting.
This current inhuman, anti-taiao, anti-Māori government needs to go.
Can Waatea’s Dale Husband as the host of of tonight’s live debate, ask Oriini Kaipara and Peeni Henare,
which ever one of you wins this by-election, – can you both make a committment to get the Labour and Te Pāti Māori to take up Hone Harawira’s demand, made last night, that the Labour Party and Te Pāti Māori, get in a room together with the Green Party to discuss forming a strategic coalition to get this far right ACT, NZF, National coalition out of government.
Standing on the right side of history Chloe Swarbrick’s speech in parliament beseeching government MPs to grow a spine is world news, replayed in full on respected Left wing news agregators like US based ‘Democracy Now’
Last night asked point blank if there was a genocide in Gaza Peeni Henare stood silent.
As Henare stood silent Oriini Kaipara answered strongly in the affirmative citing video evidence of Israeli atrocities against civilians. Before Henare weakly replied we have recognised Palestine.
Silence is compliance
As Henare was stood mum on the podium, it was reported that 30 Palestininas were killed by Israeli forces, 12 of them killed trying to get food. including three chldren.
Teh interesing thing is that Henare was not asked what his party’s position on the genocide was, he was asked for his opinon , but chose not to answer.
The question for voters, What else will Henare keep silent on if it goes aganist his party’s position.
