Mariameno attacking Te Pati Māori for refusing to previously appear – Brown on Brown unfriendly fire

After taking a movement of hundreds of thousands last year to merely a hundred last weekend, Eru continues his alienating meltdown, this time attacking Te Pati Māori and Labour at Waitangi…

Eru Kapa-Kingi accuses Labour of stabbing Māori in the back

Waitangi haukaīnga speaker and activist Eru Kapa-Kingi has delivered a fiery kōrero at condemning not just the coalition government, but the opposition as well.

Stuff NZ

…all he is doing by attacking Labour and te Pati Māori is handing political ammunition to the right. No wonder he took a movement off hundreds of thousands and alienated 99% of them!

Why public attacks weaken Māori political power

It’s interesting that Ngāpuhi, Mariameno and Eru are continuing this line that they were insulted that te Pati Māori didn’t come up and hui with them because if everyone remembers correctly, there had been a lot of threats online aimed at Debbie and Rawiri if they had appeared.

They didn’t turn up because the level of abuse and threats online didn’t make for a conducive environment for discussion.

How division benefits National, ACT and NZ First

It’s funny how everyone is on one hand screaming at each other to work together while relitigating all the ways they have been insulted.

It feels like there are no adults in the Marae.

Why unity matters heading into Election 2026

This election matters more than any other in a. generation. If National, ACT and MNZF get to cement into place their 19th Century white settler privilege, Māori political aspirations will be blunted for a decade.

Now is not the time for ego and division, now is the time to work together and all paddle in the same waka.

History shows Māori make gains together — and lose them when division does the right’s work for free.
