It appears that Judicial Activism is high on the list of historical events since the signing of the original Te Tiriti o Waitangi of February 1840 and the collaboration of politicians who have no conscience as to leading New Zealand into a state of apartheid.

The Prime Ministers Cabinet Guidance Rules for all political parties and admin Staff adopt not just the Tiriti o Waitangi, the Māori Version, but also the English Version and whatever they want to adopt in between. 12TH October 2023 it was reported that David Seymour talking about enshrining the Treaty’s principles, properly understood, in our constitutional settings, ACT would promote the Treaty as it was actually signed, not the divisive version invented by judges and academics.

“ACT has consistently said the Treaty is a taonga and that its principles provide the basis for a modern liberal democracy – the government is sovereign, its job is to protect property rights, and we all have equal rights and duties. ACT says those principles should be codified in legislation and New Zealanders should be allowed to vote on them, rather than allowing the courts to surreptitiously change our constitution.

I personally have a problem with David Seymour’s article when he states “the ‘Principles’ of  Te tiriti o Waitangi being codified in legislation and New Zealanders should be allowed to vote on them”. Firstly Act refers that they have consistently said  the Treaty is a Taonga  (which lacks direct translation into English). This refers to a Maori language word that refers to ‘treasured possession in Maori Culture’.

This is the founding document of New Zealand,. Article 1 of the Te tiriti o Waitangi says that the Queen is to be the Sovereign, that Maori are to be her subjects, with the rights and privileges of subjects like everyone else, no less and no more than anyone else.  The Treaty is not a valid treaty in International law, It does not have an independent legal standing as part of law of NZ. It only become part of the law of NZ in situations where Parliament declares it as a Statute. Although Parliament does refer to the ‘Principles’ of the Treaty, parliament has never defines them. None of the various lists o ‘treaty principles’, not even the list decided on by the Courts, accurately reflects what the Treaty actually says.

The suggestion that Maori did not understand themselves to be yielding, ceding Sovereignty by the signing of Te Tiriti o Waitangi is dishonest, not true.  Te Tirit o Waitangi (the original Maori Version) did not create ‘Principles’. If the Treaty was embedded in the NZ Constitution, the rights of Maori under the Treaty of Waitangi would be recognized and affirmed.  Maori would be legally entitled to pursue claims for natural resource for example water and other natural resources , as ‘taonga’ forever. This means, public and private property would have ‘Treaty Principles’ imposed on it. Courts would be able to rewrite Acts of Parliament. The Waitangi Tribunal would be able to make recommendations that ‘privately owned land’ be returned to Māori ownership. Māori would have precedence over ‘non-Māori’ in the distribution of ‘health care’, education and welfare. Constitutionally based ‘treaty rights’ could entitle criminals with Māori ancestry to preferential treatment, to gentler sentences.

In 2005 the ‘Treaty Tribes Coalition, especially the South Island tribe Ngai Tahu maintained “that the greatest shortcoming of NZ’s current constitutional arrangements is their failure to fully recognize the fundamental significance of the Treaty Of Waitangi”.  This is when Peter Dunne United Futures leader was undertaking a sweeping review of NZs Constitutional arrangement.

Two constitutional groups namely Auckland University Prof., Margaret Mutu convened a Iwi Leaders Constitutional Working Group, it was a self appointed group pushing for a separatist constitution based on the 1835 Declaration of Independence that resembled the UN Declaration for the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. David Round law lecturer spoke for a further group, the Independent Constitutional; Review Panel thus issuing a ‘Declaration of Equality’. Thus rejecting reference to the Treaty of Waitangi, and its Principles in any constitutional document, wanted such references to be removed from all existing legislation, wanted race-based parliamentary seats abolished and also he wanted race based representation on local boards abolished, also the Waitangi Tribunal abolished.

Some good ideas there, however the Te Tiri of Waitangi is NZ’s Founding Document, and it should never have been legislated upon. The original Maori version of the 1840 Te Tiriti o Waitangi should be celebrated in its original glory, in which there were no Principles or Partnership in this important document. In this case “every law in New Zealand would be liable to challenge as being in breach of ‘the rights of the Maori people’. Hence no settlement claims

The corrupted Te Tiri o Waitangi runs parallel with the UN Declaration of Indigenous Peoples Rights in which Iwi Elite and the Māori Party are pushing. Where Arderns Cabinet Office signed the first draft of this. November 21st -23rd 2023 the Aotearoa NZ Centre for Indigenous Peoples and the Maori Law Review and other Iwi parties convened a conference at Auckland University the theme being ‘Korero Constitution’ Nanaia Mahuta opened the second day of the meeting with a speech.

There were overseas guests in attendance.. It was reported that “discussion, advice, information took place where the govt had an opportunity to engage with academic experts on constitutional law and Indigenous rights”.  Thus transforming NZs Constitution. Recognizing Māori Rights in Te Tiriti o Waitangi, referring to the Declaration of Independence and the UNDRIP. When ACT Party David Seymour said that the Principles of the Te Tiri of Waitangi should be codified. (The original founding Māori version of Te Tiriti o Waitangi created NO Principles, its been politically corrupted. So now he wants to recognize there are Principles and codify them?

I personally believe that there should be no acknowledgement legally of the UNDRIP in legislation or otherwise.  Just amend the Te Tiriti O Waitangi back to its original state with no principles and No Partnership’. Take all Principles and Partnership pertaining to the Treaty out of legislation. It was legislation that corrupted the Te Tiriti o Waitangi, now another corruption by recognizing there are Principles to codify

I myself do not trust Government Referendums. The People of NZ have no end decision making rights, they have no legally binding legislation in the Parliaments Initiated Referendum Act. But the Govt have binding and non binding rights in the Act. People trusted the govt and they corrupted Te Tiriti o Waitangi the founding document of NZ. WHY WOULD YOU TRUST THEM?

The legislated Principles and the Partnership corruption of the Te Tiriti o Waitangi runs in parallel to the UN Declaration for the Rights of Indifenous Peoples. This is why NZ Govt under Labour refused to sign it on 13th September 2007 (However in 2010 John Key arranged secretly with Co Leader of Maori Party Pita Sharples to visit the UN, to sign the UN Declaration)

13th September 2007, Rosemary Banks represented NZ and spoke on NZ’s behalf. This is why it was rejected.(Canada, Australia, US and NZ rejected the UNDRIP in 2007). Rosemary Banks explained to the gathering at the UN Assembly.  NZ had a role in implementation of the text of the  UN Declaration prior to 2007, however  she said “with deep regret NZ is unable to support the text presented before the UN Assembly. There was difficulty with four provisions in the Declaration that were incompatible with NZ’s Constitutional and Legal Arrangements.

1)The Treaty of Waitangi  (2) The governing for the GOOD OF ALL OF NZ”S CITIZENS’. (3) Article 26 on LANDS & RESOURCES,  (4) on REDRESS (COMPENSATION)  (5) Articles 19 and 32 on RIGHT OF VETO OVER THE STATE

1.A) The provisions on Lands and Resources could not be implemented in NZ as (Article 26) stated that Indigenous Peoples had a right to own, use, develop or control lands and territories that they had traditionally owned, occupied or used.

FOR NZ THAT WOULD MEAN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY. Also means under this scope it require recognition of Rights to Lands now LAWFULLY OWNED by OTHER CITIZENS.

This does not take into account the CUSTOMS, TRADITIONS and LAND TENURE SYSTEMS of Indigenous Peoples concerned. It also implies that Indigenous Peoples have rights that others do not have.

ARTICLE 28 on REDRESS (COMPENSATION) Takes no account of the fact that land might now be occupied, or legitimately owned by others, or subject to numerous different overlapping Indigenous claims. The UN Declaration implies that Indifenous Peoples have a right of VETO over a democratic legislature and also NATIONAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT.

The UNDRIP implied different classes of Citizenship, where Indigenous People had a RIGHT OF VETO that other groups or individuals  DO NOT HAVE.

The PROVISIONS IN THE UN DECLARATION in include PROVISIONS that are fundamentally incompatible with DEMOCRATIC PROCESSES, LEGISLATION and CONSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS. Rosemary Banks reported that the UN Declaration (UNDRIP)_ was explained by its supporters as being an ‘ASPIRATIONATIONAL DOCUMENT’ intended to INSPIRE rather than to have LEGAL AFFECT.  She also added that “the history of the negotiations on the UN Declaration and the divided manner in which it has been adopted demonstrated that the text did not state propositions that were reflected by State practice, or which would be recognized as the general principles of law.

AS FOR THE TERMINOLOGY ‘INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’ this was established by a Tanzania Parliamentarian by the name of Parkipuny. Later on promoted by George Manuel President of the Canadian Indian Brotherhood and he was key to establishing the World Indigenous Council, he played a part in preparation of the UNDRIP (UN Declaration). At the gathering at the UN Assembly for the World Indigenous Council; 100 protestors walked out in protest as they had not consented to be classified, labeled as Indigenous People.

Early 1970’s George Manuel visited NZ met up with Maori Politicians and a small number of Maori entertainers where he talked seriously about this being called ‘Indigenous Peoples’, he then went onto Australia and spoke with Aboriginal Students. He communicated, met with world leaders and travelled extensively. Te Tiriti o Waitangi did not created the term ‘Indigenous Peoples’ Parkipuny did and George Manuel of the Canadian Indian Brotherhood spread this world wide.

PERSONALLY I DO NOT BELIEVE WE NEED A REFERENDUM, JUST EXPOSE THE TRUTH -DESTROY THE POLITICAL LEGISLATIVE CORRUPTNESS THAT BEEN DELIBERATELY PERPETRATED  WITHIN THE TE TIRI o WAITANGI –THE DARK SIDE OF POLITICS.

TAKE OUT FOUNDING DOCUMENT TE TIRITI BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL FOUNDING DOCUMENT THAT HAD NO PARTNERSHIP AND NO PRINCIPLES.

DESTROY THE PARLIAMENTARY POLITICAL  LEGISLATED CORRUPTION, DAMAGE  OF TE TIRITI O WAITANGI THAT HAS CAUSED SEPERATISM & DIVISION WITHIN OUR NATION.

 LET US  THE PEOPLE OF NEW ZEALAND BE ONES TO SHOW THE WORLD WE ARE PROUDLY ‘ONE PEOPLE OF ONE NATION’ GOD’S OWN AND GOD BLESS NEW ZEALAND..

David Seymour ACT Party leader tippy toeing around the most important information within the content of his book

David Seymour authored a book in 2017 it was published by the ACT Party as he highlights on page 30 of his book ‘the most destructive policies of the generations’.  He describes this as  “we have managed to create an absurd situation in New Zealand. Sadly I say it is clearly evident that what we see now as absurd destructive policies of the generations is the Global Decade of Action implemented by the UN and UN Nation States accompanied by the World Economic Forum implemented locally in New Zealand. Auckland Council vision to be the largest smart livable city worldwide. Mass migration (Climate migration) through Auckland Council collaboration with the Global Mayors Migration taskforce (C40)

Seymour further states that “we have managed to create an absurd situation where NZ  has a 0.8% developed  area, now has a shortage of urban land. The most obvious example of this is Auckland Metropolitan area which is said to increase to another one million in the next 30 years. Auckland region is 1.2 million acres and even if each house has a 2.5 people living in it and each house was on a ¼ acre section then on 10% of the land development would be used up. He stated that “the land shortage is artificial, its like an invisible line on a map”

The Urban/City UN Human Habitat 3 Settlements globally are the every increasing critical weapon to advance the so called Smart Growth Environment. The Urban Containment. Build Up with intensity and diversity all inclusive, an inclusive mass surveillance system to monitor all citizens.

SDG 11 Global Agenda 2030 Make Cities Inclusive,  transformative high impact cities (Human Settlements). Less open spaces, worsening segregation all dependent on Social, Environmental Governance. Controlling peoples lives. Global Agenda 2030 Indigenous Peoples (Maori). A strong engagement with Indigenous Peoples (UN RES/70/1) mentions Indigenous Peoples six times. The Decade of Indigenous People (UN) with funding opportunities, Un country decision making, partnerships with local governments (Councils)

The Indigenous Peoples Approach is DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) Enriching Hapu/Iwi through using CRT Critical Race Theory. An ideology of totalitarianism, tyranny. Oppressed vs Oppressed and victimhood.  Attack, dismantle westernization, whiteness, Christianity, family, traditions (Tribal Feudalism) Cultural Political Marxism. . Its clear to see the resemblance of this ideological tyranny of human rights in the era of Chair Mao Ze Dong, in Communism and Nazism.

Mana Whenua participation at all levels of Local Government (Auckland Council) and other Councils in NZ.

Auckland Council Cultural Marxist, Critical Race Theory, Identity Politics DEI (Diversity Equity Inclusion) Initiatives. Political Marxist ideology. Smart Growth includes Diversity nationwide. Smart Cities, initially hailed as the epitome of technological advancement, may hold a darker truth. Are we unwittingly surrendering our rights, becoming prisoners in a digital realm controlled by councils and the World Economic Forum (WEF)? The stark reality is that ALL COUNCILS are deeply entrenched in the Smart City program (A reference made to a Counterspin Episode)

Auckland City a C40 City collaboration with the Global Mayors Migration Council. As we see mass migration causing havoc in Europe, Ireland, England and now Australia is talking about this in the Senate. New Zealand huge increase in approvals for residential, visitor, work, residence visa’s. Migration officers leave their employment because they were ordered to ignore criminal convictions, do not further investigate, turn a blind eye and ignore, accept as many of these migrant visa’s as quickly as possible. When Migration officers complained, nothing happened, so they left their jobs and then reported this to RNZ, so the public would know what is happening. (3/9/2023 RNZ Behind the scenes get as many approvals through as quickly as possible) 1Stats NZ provisional estimate 34,000 migrants, some estimates are larger, however Stats NZ is only provisional stat estimates. RNZ reports that Auckland population growth may  increase to 2 million by 2030 (31/3/2021). However we are now at the largest annual increase since the 1960’s.

This is yet another Truth Bomb that Local- Central Government will not make into a public debate.

Aucklanders will pay big time for a very long time. Local – Central Government of course will not publicly debate this to the citizens of NZ, as we are living in what you call a ‘Cancel Culture’. New Zealanders discussing this in public will be cancelled out…after all this is another one of those ‘Truth Bombs’

All above are embedded in the most destructive policy of the NZ generation, but of course David Seymour has only dipped his tippy toe in the water and quickly withdraw it hoping it won’t be noticed.

Climate change: Mike Smith wins right to sue seven polluters including Fonterra, Z, Genesis Energy. Smith is an influential member of the Iwi National Leaders Forum, whom have back door entry to the Te Pati Maori Party in Parliament. Smith refers to the role of tikanga Maori and Smiths relationship to coastal waters. This appears to be the case of building up more renewable energies. Smith had already had his case thrown out of Court but the Supreme Court has now decided that he does has a case to be answered, so he gets his day in court once again

Smith states the government is failing its duties under the Treaty of Waitangi to protect Maori, whom he said are much more vulnerable to so called catastrophic climate change than any other peoples. Saying that agriculture sector contribute to approx. ½ of NZ’s Greenhouse emissions. Smith says the government was failing unless it reduced total greenhouse gases by half by 2020 and zero by 2050.

2017 Government  stock take on adapting to Climate Change identified Maori as a most vulnerable group because of their significant reliance on the environment as a cultural, social economic resource. With Climate Change Minister James Shaw saying that Maori are disproportionately impacted by the effects of climate change. Surely this case of Smiths now permitted by the Supreme Court will open the flood gates to claims by those whom have much self interested gain. Follow the money

Researching a book authored by David Seymour titled ‘Own Your Own Future’ A Liberal Vision For New Zealand in 2017..Page 22 ‘MMP allows small parties to have a large influence. The Maori Party have proven this by being prepared to threaten John Key with a walk out, which would leave the balance of power to Peter Dunne. They have managed to negotiate million after millions of taxpayer funding for various Maori centric projects and separatists legislation this being a gradual shift in the entire way in which government operates

Fast forward to page 162 on Environment in Seymour’s book. Green MPs are the biggest users of free parliamentary air travel, they spent more on air travel than NZ First MPs. This is a Party that flew three MPs to Paris to talk about Climate. Green Party only having one scientifically trained MP. The political right have two doctors, a geneticist, a zoologist and a neurological scientist and a few agricultural scientist

Page 163 The Free market economy make better environmental custodians. Seymour calls the free market economy as 4v P’s, Property Rights, Pricing, Prosperity and Private Initiatives. Saying the problem with the Green Party and their doing  environmentalism by posture of principle.

On page 170 ‘Chapter titled ‘In ACT We Tend to be Optimistic’ “ The reason the doomsters get the future wrong is that they under estimate or even ignore technological change. If you predict the future on the basis of current technology you will be wrong. Not just a little wrong but wildly wrong. There are a few  pessimists gone wrong over the years eg Malthus on population 1798, Ehrlich in 1968 (The Population Bomb) The Club Of Rome in 1972 (Limits to Growth) to Al Gore claiming in 2006 that we had only 10 years left to save the planet.  Al Gore has been very influential, as to Obama and now the WEF as made a fortune from his inconvenient truth.

“That in the last 30 years we have witnessed the greatest reduction in global poverty in the history of the planet. Tragically the Labour Party, Greens, NZ First still don’t get it that free-markets and globalization thing

Saying on page 171 “Forecasts of global fossil fuel use is based on current technologies will be wildly overstated. I think we should all be skeptical of the intense politicization of climate science debates. It is always suspicious when science issues seem to line up with political positions. The left/Right divide tends to correlate with alarmist sketic positions, and that’s weird whatever side you come from. Seymour stating he is a Luke  warmist as outlined by Matt Ridley when it comes to man made climate change. Is skeptical about the degree as to how dangerous man made climate change is, he just has a moderately informed opinion

What does Matt Ridley say:- Climate Change is doing more good than harm. The message he gives is “carry on warming” in an article in the Spectator as he challenged the widespread belief that climate change has a negative effect on the world.  Saying that current scientific consensus is largely ignored by mainstream media. Matt identifies economic benefits of climate change

Fewer winter deaths, a better chance of life benefits lower energy costs, cut heating bills. An increase in global plant growth High CO2 level is actually good news, has a positive effect on plant growth, on food supply and agricultural yields, in the Sahel region of Africa where levels of famine have declined. There’s no evidence that climate change has caused higher rates of death in extreme weather. This is a predicted conclusion by IPCC, An independent study by Indur Goklany that shows that the death rate from droughts, floods and storms has dropped 98% since the 1920’s. People have better protection and have got much richer.

The trouble is that the mainstream media, and even the IPCC, cherry-pick the bad news whilst ignoring the good. This leads to damaging anti-climate change policies: Negative economic and environmental impact. Matt contends that these policies have “driven people into fuel poverty, made industries uncompetitive, driven up food prices, accelerated the destruction of forests, killed rare birds of prey, and divided communities”.

Large input – negligible returns..Britain will spend around £1.8 trillion over the course of this century on climate policies, in the hope of lowering the air temperature by just 0.005°C.                    For Matt, the key question is: is it worth trying to impede a change in the future at the expense of causing a great deal of harm in the present.

Seymour says he is a luke warmist as outlined by Matt Ridley and here you have it. Hence its all down to NZrs contributing to being good global citizens and all this renewable energy will do nothing to change the climate.

Seymour’s says there is a strong case for us New Zealand’s to contribute to being good global citizens on page 172 of his book. We effectively have Zero impact on global warming outcomes. But of course, always follow the money… The World Bank directs grants to Indigenous Peoples, works closer with Indigenous Peoples, the financing, transitioning to carbon markets. Indigenous Peoples Rights to mitigate climate change, wind and solar farms. Climate Investment Te Pati Māori Climate Policy Plan for unique Indigenous Biodiversity

Te Pati Maori ‘whanau, hapu, iwi must remain at the forefront of climate action and solutions, they must be our own, Crown supports Iwi/Maori led clean energy projects, start up funding, partnerships, financing. Ensuring that Crown works with Iwi to establish climate change adaption. Iwi/Maori lead transition to Zero emissions economy, producing industries in the Maori economy, economic, social opportunity for Iwi businesses to be the cutting edge of green technology, as Maori economy continues to grow

Maori Party established a  $1 Billion scheme responsible for supporting Iwi/Maori owned community energy projects, solar energy and insulation, funding projects to create Maori jobs, bring down energy costs for whanau.

The Crown reviewing renewable energy, meaningful action in terms of involving Iwi/Maori. The Maori Party establishing a national Maori strategy for renewable energy, partnership agreement between Crown (Govt) and specific Iwi/Hapu that are keen to lead renewable energy with significant investment in large scale projects. With partnership finance. Maori Party ban coal mines phase out coal burning by 2030. Fund Iwi/Maori as to adaption of managed retreat policies. Economic social opportunities for Iwi/Maori businesses to be the cutting edge of renewable green technology, growing asset bases.

Back to Mike Smith, Influential member of the National Iwi Leader Forum that has a revolving door into Parliament through the Te Pati Maori Party. That has been in many talks with Christopher Luxon. Of course Christopher Luxon does not want Seymour’s Treaty Principle Bill to go to national referendum. NZ has no democracy. There is no democratic state of New Zealand.

Hence this is why I personally believe the supreme Court has now allowed Smith to take 7 large companies to Court as to Man Made Climate causing himself and idegous peoples harm. Just follow the dam money.

To take action, we need to act now. How do we plan to take action. This is a human centered approach, by dramatically changing how we move around the region and how we work. Our economy is based less on consumption. We must make radical urgent changes to what we do as individuals, communities and businesses. We must embed mataurangi Maori and Te Ao Maori principles to ensure no-one is left behind.. We will make major shift

The narrative speaks to the struggles of Tāwhirimātea, the primal ancestor associated with weather. Tied to the Māori creation narratives of the universe and the world, Tāwhiri-mātea is seen to be influencing our climate and accelerating the change in our climate in response to human induced climate change.

the climate, as part of a wider whakapapa / intergenerational symbiotic system of relationships, is always moving and changing. We are responding specifically to the impacts of human induced change as a result of western-centred values, behaviours and systems. • our tupuna Atua / primal ancestors are reciprocating those behaviours, which we refer to Te Tāruke-a-Tāwhiri – the struggles of Tāwhiri

The global response to climate change must be underpinned by the best knowledge available. Indigenous knowledge systems

To guide Auckland’s approach to climate action, mana whenua, through the Mana Whenua Kaitiaki Forum has partnered with the council to provide a Te Ao Māori perspective throughout the development of the plan. Early in the process, this forum set up a climate change working group to work with council representatives and subject matter experts on their response to climate change. Climate Change included in all Global Development Goal UN Agenda 2030. Includes Mass Migration ‘Environmental Migration globally)

Leading the response The Mana Whenua Kaitiaki Forum has taken the lead role in anchoring and guiding a Māori response to climate change within Tāmaki Makaurau and working closely with Māori community organisations. The approach has been underpinned by the following principles: • whakapapa centred approach to understanding and responding to climate change (Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri) • mātauranga Māori forming the foundation to restoring balance with our tupuna Atua • mana whenua-led conversation, focused on a practical expression of our obligations of kaitiakitanga of Tāmaki Makaurau and the manaakitanga of its people and, in particular, our Māori communities..Auckland Council  in Phil Goff signed Auckland City up to the C40 Cities Global Green Deal. This includes support, promoting a Plant based diet. The Auckland Council climate plan reinforces C40 city initiatives. 2018 the Mayors Migration Council introduced the Mayors Migration Declaration through a Global Mayors Mitigation Group.  Planning of future mass migration is to be established by Mayors of C40 cities worldwide. (Climate Refuges namely ‘Environmental Migration)

The C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group is a group of 100 global cities  committed to taking bold climate action.

Auckland has been recognised as an Innovator City within the C40 network since 2015 and has endorsed a range of C40 commitments, including: • the Green and Healthy Streets Declaration (formerly the Fossil Fuel Free Streets Declaration) Auckland Council will endorse and enable to put Iwi/Maori framework into action. :

The Auckland Council references the following :- The development of an indigenous measurement tool to support management, prioritization, and measurement of the state of progress against the indigenous framework.

Actively  partnering with Iwi and recognized organizations to co-design and implement reconnection programmes for rangatahi and their whānau. To endorse support resource food sovereignty in accordance with Indigenous measurement tools

Auckland Council is a delegate of the Crown exercising powers of local government in Auckland and has  statutory obligations to Iwi/Māori to recognise, respect the Crown’s responsibility to take appropriate account of the principles of the Treaty.

The Council reports that the Treaty is articulated in law through an evolving set of principles. Treaty principles have been expressed and recognised through a range of courts and the Waitangi Tribunal. They are not exhaustive, and it is recognised that other principles may be developed with time. (NZ’s Founding document ‘Te Tiriti o Waitangi’ did not create Principles nor did it create Partnerships).

The Waitangi Act and the Crown Enterprises Act created these Partnerships and Principles that continue to be entered into our domestic policies and regulation. Not one political crony in the Cesspit of Wellington will stand up and tell the truth about this whole corruption. Instead they keep the corruption going through entering Principles and Partnership time and time again in Bills, Legislations and Regulations.

Whiria Te Muka Tangata is Auckland Council’s Māori Responsiveness Framework. It brings together the council’s commitments and obligations to Māori. This enables Auckland Council to ensure that it considers how its policies and actions recognise and protect Māori rights and interests, and contribute to Māori needs and aspirations.

Auckland Climate Plan has a Independent Iwi/Maori Statutury Board. They are Non-Elected bodies with specific powers given to them by local and central government to promote cultural, economic, environmental and social issues of significance to Maori. (They mean certain Iwi Elite). This the Auckland Council states is a partnership approach as a Te Titiri partner.  An economic force at Iwi/Maori levels. (There is NO Partnership in Te Tiriti o Waitangi) .  FOLLOW THE MONEY….

ACTIONS: • mātauranga Māori plays an equal role in decisionmaking • establish a Māori Sustainability Office / Think Tank for the Mana Whenua Kaitiaki Forum • establish Mana Whenua supported rangatahi group (intergenerational) • establish an online Māori knowledge and information portal • preparing and educating Māori communities, businesses and landowners for change • promote new ways of collective action

Māori have had to bear the negative impacts of colonisation, westernisation and urbanisation for over 160 years within Tāmaki Makaurau. Any response to climate change needs to consider the impacts on Māori and, in particular, mana whenua. Our collective response to climate change needs to enable sustainable circular Māori economic development and growth and encourage innovation across Māori business ecosystems. A key outcome is to focus on lifting whānau Māori from poverty and transform the conditions of wellbeing with whānau. Mātauranga Māori Mātauranga Māori – Māori knowledge systems and practices hold a key to climate change response. Mātauranga Māori is community-based and collective knowledge that offers valuable insights that complement western scientific data with chronological and landscape specific precision and detail. This is critical to verifying climate models and evaluating change scenarios. Māori knowledge systems and practice provide a strong foundation for community-based adaption and mitigation actions. Mana whenua have been able to observe and interpret change through the environment within Tāmaki Makaurau over many generations.

There will be times when our leaders need to decide and act to protect and enhance mauri before everybody is ready

Climate emergency We are seeing millions of people around the world strike, led by youth calling for a safe climate future. People across Aotearoa have called for decisions and action to protect our regions and our planet from the impacts of climate change. In June 2019, Auckland Council responded to this call and the irrefutable evidence of climate change by declaring that our region is facing climate emergency. By declaring a climate emergency, the council commits to: • incorporate climate change considerations into work programmes and decisions • provide local government leadership in the face of climate change, including collaborating with local and central government partners advocate for greater central government leadership and action on climate change • increase the visibility of our climate change work • lead by example in monitoring and reducing its greenhouse gas emissions • include climate change impact statements on all council committee reports. Responding to the climate emergency will require rapid and transformational change in how we live, work and travel. Our eight priorities identify the actions we need to take in our emergency response
