Prebble’s Waitangi Tribunal Resignation another right wing political stunt
‘Maybe we should listen to him’ – David Seymour praises Prebble over Waitangi Tribunal call
- Former ACT leader and Labour minister Richard Prebble has quit the Waitangi Tribunal, saying he won’t turn the Treaty into a “socialist manifesto”.
- However questions are already being raised over why Prebble did not understand what he was getting himself into.
- Meanwhile ACT leader David Seymour has praised Prebble as a great New Zealander and says maybe we should listen to him
This was not a fucking accident!
This was a political stunt!
Tama Potaka must be asked why he appointed Prebble in the first place when Prebble was always going to do a suicide bomber detonation just as the Treaty Principles Referendum trundles on.
This was a bad faith appointment just as the Principles Referendum is a bad faith debate just as the public services cut back is a bad faith debate.
Claiming that the Waitangi Tribunal has turned the Treaty into a ‘socialist manifesto’ is pure red meat garbage for ACT’s angry redneck electorate.
I’m pretty sure Prebs considers Traffic lights, tax and breast feeding all socialist manifestos as well.
This was always a stunt from the Political Right.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
What was his book called again? “I’ve Been Drinking”?
lol
Clearly old mumble could not understand a word of what was being said and his colonist attitude held no sway .Why the stupid old prick even thought he could turn up there and preach Act hate is beyond belief .Clearly Potaka is as big an idiot as Luxon and mumble
So who signed as up to the indigenous rights thingy with the UN, and started co governance models? Does the make the Nat Act government of the day socialists? This guy is another f’ing moron.
“Tama Potaka must be asked why he appointed Prebble in the first place”
Would Potaka have really had the final say on this? If Potaka opposed it because he knew how inflammatory it was and how much of an ACT ‘play’ it was – then the spotlight goes on the cowardly, ignorant, careless Luxon for caving to ACT.
Most telling statement, laying bare the mal-intent of Prebble’s agenda and glaring racism.
” Prebble said the tribunal was seeking the “socialist dream” of economic equality for Māori and, as there would NEVER be equality, it would create endless grievance.”
Does anyone blink? That near 200 years of invasion and pakeha’s oppressive legislation has caused death and inequality ?
The statement exposes Little Dave’s new found ‘ Principles’ of equal people as a lie too.
Prebble’s an immigrant. Meandering uselessly for years
at Rotoma. On Māori land, Living off the 3rd wife.
Oh shite
That’s right
He’s white.
Freeloading’s ok
Prebble said the Tribunal had no power so what is he moaning about.
