They are pushing hard against the rotten door of identity politics to gain maximum control of resources, such as a lock on access to fresh water, while their Labour sponsors are in power. Their motives are as much commercial as ethno-nationalist. New Zealand is fast approaching a fork in the road however, a unitary State or He Pua Pua. The election in 2023 will be critical.<br /><br />Meanwhile we have learned from Cameron Slater, love him or loathe him, that the Police "Scanning and Targeting" unit are monitoring people who express "anti-government sentiments" with a view to intimidating them into silence. We are certainly in a very strange place.Odysseushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745489060434244478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-10145334258826182632021-12-17T17:09:15.514+13:002021-12-17T17:09:15.514+13:00Very nice touch Chris.

Despite the PMC & academic chattering class's long march through the institutions wilfully corrupting basic democratic principles in their efforts to provide special favours for their "special people", I suspect that if push comes to shove the State will be configured to reflect the expressed will of the vast majority of the people.<br /><br />RobbieWgtnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-78592402652982668542021-12-17T09:18:43.602+13:002021-12-17T09:18:43.602+13:00Sometimes there is more truth in fiction than ther...Sometimes there is more truth in fiction than there is in the most factual of non-fiction...Archduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.com
