Why is it that some countries prosper, while others fail? It’s an obvious question, but one that is not often asked. For an answer, we simply need to look at the six years of failure by the Ardern government. What we had was an inept government of the people, by the government, for the government. What we need is government of the people, by the people, for the people.…

The new Parliament is one of the most radial ever elected. Last week we saw a Green MP leading an anti-Semitic crowd in a war chant to destroy Israel. And just days earlier both Green party leaders promised to amplify opposition to ACT’s policy to hold a referendum about the Treaty principles. Clearly, it’s a party that is now more extreme than it is green. The Maori party chimed in with its own threats. They promised action to close down cities and a hikoi of all hikois if the new coalition government dared to challenge Maori privilege. The question is will the new government cave in to bullies or will it let democracy prevail?…

Votes have had their say and they have said they have had enough of Labour and its woke agenda. While Chris Hipkins is the one who had to front up to the nation on election night, the defeat is very much a rejection of Jacinda Ardern and her brand of radical socialism dressed up as kindness. Instead of building a nation of unity, Ardern and her caucus colleagues used identity politics to divide us into the oppressed versus the oppressors. What New Zealanders now desperately need is unity. It’s this that the new coalition government must achieve if it is to become more than a one-term government. It must close the door on the Ardern legacy of failure and show New Zealanders that division has no future.…

When the Marine and Coastal Area Act was passed in 2011, the public was told by the then National Government that less than 10% of the coast would qualify for customary marine title. A decision by the Court of Appeal has shown that assurance to be a lie. We now know that virtually all of the coast will pass to Maori control. National is now in charge. It should put things right. It should amend the legislation so it does what it said it would do.…

The 14th of October is an important day for both New Zealand and Australia. Australia is holding a referendum about giving a Voice to indigenous rights. We are holding a general election where indigenous rights – co-governance – have become a significant issue. It may well be a defining issue of the campaign and could explain the rise in support for New Zealand First. Labour hid its race-based agenda from the public and has done its best to keep it out of the headlines during this campaign. But the public now has the chance to say no to the race-based future that iwi leaders, Labour, the Greens, and the Maori Party are trying to impose onto the country.…

It is highly likely that Labour will suffer a historic defeat on the 14th of October. Voters will be sending politicians a very clear message that they were elected to serve the public not dictate to them. It’s a message all politicians should heed. But there is another political player that is being sent a message – and that’s the media. They are copping as much verbal abuse as the politicians, and for that, they have only themselves to blame. If journalists are to regain public trust they need to put aside their left-wing bias and become reporters instead of political advocates.…

Last week Labour released its Pre-election Economic and Fiscal Update called the (PREFU). The figures were better than expected. Labour said it showed the economy was in good shape. What they did not say the economy was benefiting from a massive increase in immigration. It is now clear that Labour opened the immigration floodgates last year to achieve a pre-election boost to the economy. It is of course a short-term stimulus, created by Labour to advance their political agenda. That’s a fact that has not escaped the attention of some economic experts.…

The polls suggest Labour is about to suffer a historic and humiliating defeat on the 14th of October. Voters have had enough. Labour’s performance during its six years in power is a litany of failure. Clearly, it can’t campaign on its record. Instead, Labour is making promises that are not credible and a number of its senior MPs have been caught out telling lies to scare voters about a National-Act government. But what will a new government do to address the multitude of problems our country now faces?…

The Waitangi Tribunal was established in 1975 as a commission of inquiry into the Crown’s alleged breaches of the Treaty. The hope was that it would achieve reconciliation. It hasn’t. Some say it has become a vehicle for lawyers to grow rich and activists to pursue a radical agenda that is bringing apartheid to New Zealand. Has the time come to abolish the Waitangi Tribunal and remove all references to the Treaty from legislation? Many think so. They say the Tribunal must be abolished if racial unity is to be restored.…

Public opinion polls are now converging on the view that Labour’s term in government is coming to an end. When it came to power in 2017 Jacinda Ardern said her government would be open, honest, and transparent. Time has proved otherwise. Labour has been anything but open, honest and transparent. While Jacinda Ardern was Prime Minister she cultivated a star-like reputation on the world stage. She is now reaping the rewards of fame, but we are left with major problems that must now be repaired.…

In 2019 the Labour Party introduced a new corrections policy called Hokai Rangi. It takes a tikanga Maori approach to sentencing. The Minister behind the scheme was Kelvin Davis. He said it would make the corrections system work better for Maori who make up more than half of the prison population. He said the objective was to reduce the number of Maori in prison to match the Maori share of the general population. But has it worked? Or is it a get-out-of-jail-free card for Maori offenders? Is it making our communities unsafe?…
The government is the answer to our problems, at least that’s what the politicians would like us to believe. Since Labour took office in 2017 there has been a seismic shift towards greater state intervention and socialist control. But it is also true that all of the major parties have moved to the left. Even the ACT Party which was founded on the principle of personal freedom and responsibility, has moved to a position that National once occupied. Sir Roger Douglas founded the ACT Party but he believes it's time to take a fresh look at the role a government should take. He says we need to do things differently if we are to find a real solution to poverty, disadvantage, and inequality.…
The United States Supreme Court has ruled against a university giving preferential entry on the grounds of race. The Court said the American constitution is colour-blind and prohibits racial preference. Other countries have similar protections. But in New Zealand, racial preference has been part of the political agenda since Labour was elected to office in 2020. Healthcare is a recent example. But are these race-based privileges legal? Or do they breach the New Zealand Bill of Rights and the Human Rights Act which says a person cannot be discriminated against because of their “colour”, “race”, or “ethnic or national origins”?…

There are now less than 100 days to what will be the most important election of our lifetime. For many New Zealanders, the return of Labour to government along with the Greens and the Maori Party would be the final straw. Those with get up and go, will get up and go to Australia in even greater numbers than they are already. In 2020 Labour kept the He Puapua report secret from voters. It’s less of a secret that should Labour be re-elected they will continue the He Puapua agenda by embedding a new constitution with the Treaty at its core. That would radically change our democracy forever.…
