A daughter of Priam endowed with the gift of prophecy but fated never to be believed.



@Dane_Giraud Importantly, he's a really smart and decent human being with strong public law credentials in particular 🤷🏻♂️





🚩Want to stop co-governance? Read this: Winston Peters and NZFirst warned NZ and National about the dangers of co-governance YEARS AGO. This is a decade old clip of Peters vs Chris Finlayson (at the time Nationals Minister of Treaty Settlements) This part is important .. in 2004 labour passed the Seabed and Foreshore act. Contentious at the time as iwi were trying to claim stretches of beaches around NZ. This bill was drafted to ensure ALL NZ would have access to beaches, and place the seabed and foreshore into “public” ownership. Winston Peters supported this bill, but only on the provision that it was placed in “Crown” ownership not “public”. In order to get NZFirsts support Clark reluctantly amended the bill and it passed. The reason why Winston Peters stipulated “crown” vs “public” ownership, is it closed the door to any further claims, and claims would unlikely succeed. In 2010 Key signed UNDRIP which Peters had blocked in 2007. 2011 Key repealed the foreshore and seabed act, and replaced it with the “Coastal Areas” bill. This bill was more consistent with UNDRIP’s principles. National also foolishly took away the “Crown” ownership clause, and now there are 603 claims before the Waitangi tribunal, which are costing 200m JUST to have the cases heard. These cases have constitutional implications and are pivotal to Co-governance. Act and National have no appetite or will to remove this law, and both parties have admitted this. Winston Peters, Shane Jones and Casey Costello are experts in this issue. Winston and his team know how to unpick this and consign co-governance to the rubbish bin of history. Watch the clip… Peters warns of loss of sovereignty and implications for the country. Finlayson calls the seabed and foreshore bill “disgusting”. Nationals David Carter, was an awful speaker, a life long hater of Peters and only marginally better than Mallard at the role. Finlayson became more powerful when Key made him Attorney General and now works as a lawyer for iwi claims. He is also a staunch supporter of Co-governance. Want to end Co-governance ? Party Vote NZFirst.
