UNFAIRLY TARGETING FARMERS – THE 2016 HAVELOCK NORTH WAS USED TO INTRODUCE – THE NEW WATER REGULATOR TAUMATA AROWAI AND THE MAORI ADVISORY BOARD

UNFAIRLY TARGETING FARMERS – THE 2016 HAVELOCK NORTH WAS USED TO INTRODUCE –    THE NEW WATER REGULATOR TAUMATA AROWAI AND THE MAORI ADVISORY BOARD

Initially Accusations & Speculations were a reality to the farmers whom were blamed for the  Campylobacter outbreak  in Havelock North in August 2016, An estimated  5,500 people, 15 approx hospital admissions & 3  reported contributed deaths. There were political discussions and the Green Party blamed the Farmers for Intensification of  Farming practices as being the fault of the contamination

Federated Farmers & other Agricultural Representatives strongly rejected the claims pointing out that the area new the specific bore in question  was primarily lifestyle blocks and orchards not Intensive Dair Farming. It was concluded the source of contamination was likely from sheep faeces that flowed into a surface pond & then into an insecure bore

The Govt Inquiry attributed the blame on the Systemic failings by Hawkes Bay Regional Council & the Hastings District Council for their lack of collaboration * inadequate Risk Assessments & the failure to ensure Bore Security & Proper Water Treatment. The initial finger pointing at farmers caused a significant negative effect on the farming communities reputation. NZ First stated the Farmers are owed an apology as it was clarified the actual source was the Councils significant failings.

Farmers had been treated unfairly , were targeted by misleading and alarmist claims by Anti Lobbyists without a shred of evidence. There was finger pointing at agriculture,  yet the closest dairy farms was 40 kilometers away. It was reported that farmers had spent $1 billion fencing rivers over the past decade.

The Havelock August 2016 Incident imposed new restrictions & obligations on farmers as key land users in water catchments. Councils were blamed, criticized for the lack of collaboration * Inadequate Risk Assessment * Failure to implement required Water Safety Plans & Monitoring which was said to contribute to the outbreak occurring. The Havelock North Incidence highlighted tensions around water and land use in NZ, leading to more management & regulations nationwide.

Regional Councils eg Hawkes Bay Regional Council was required to implement stricter rules and planning changes (Like a TANK plan Change) which included the development & implementation of Farm Plans. Introduced more rigorous standards & restrictions, scrutiny and more rigorous national standards. This leading to increased regulations & restrictions on Agricultural practices & policy changes

The prompting of calls for a more Sustainable Less Intensive Farming methods. Including a cap on the use of synthetic nitrogen fertilizer, a measure that directly impacts many farmers. The Havelock North 2016 Incident  although Farmers were not to blame led to broader regulatory shifting, restriction on land use practices especially agriculture right across NZ. (was this just another Crisis opportunity ‘Never let a Good Crisis Go to Waste)that this was in  1 of the bore heads (Same location as the August 2016 incident)

The independent Stu Clark 1998 Report concluded that the 2 Bores were a possible source of campylobacteriosis.. The likely point of entry for  contaminated surface water was a leaking power cable gland. It was recommended that testing the Te Mata Aquifer to establish whether it was confined along with measured to ensure security of both bores.

The Regional Council failed to meet its responsibilities as set out by the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA) to act as Guardian of the Aquifers under the Heretaunga Plains Protection of Water Sources. The District Council did not embrace- implement the high standard of care requires of a public drinking water supplier in light of the 1998 outbreak and the significant history of transgressions. The breaching of Drinking Water Standards

The District Council did not properly manage the maintenance of plant equipment or keep records of that work, carried out little to no supervisions of follow-up work. Did not carry out recommended improvements. There was a lack of collaboration and liaison  between the Regional Council and the District Council. A strained relationship with an absence of regular and meaningful cooperations resulted in missed opportunities that may have prevented the out break

Consultancy firm MWH New Zealand Ltd (“MWH”), a technical adviser to the District Council, failed competently to assess and report on the security of the bore heads of Brookvale Road bores 1 and 2. The Inquiry found that near the Brookvale Rd Bores the Aquifer had been penetrated by a significant number of disused or uncapped bores leaving it vulnerable to entry by contaminated water. That the Brookvale RD Bore 3 was affected by earthworks at the neighboring Te Mata Mushroom property, leaving it vulnerable to contaminated water

The Te Mata Aquifer was not a secure source of drinking water- non compliant to Drinking Water standards. That the Regional and District Councils relationship was dysfunctional. The Regional Council filed a criminal prosecution against the Regional Council 18th November 2016 which led to a delay in the Inquiry.

It was stated that this was ill advised and never should have been launched . It was eventually dropped and replaced with two infringement notices. The Regional Council spent $450,000 investigating the case. This could have been spent on the Aquifers beneath the Heretaunga Plains

It was reported that the risk associated with waterborne diseases in NZ are well recognized. The Drinking Water Guidelines emphazise that ‘Untreated drinking water contaminated with pathogens presents a significant risk to human health. Therefore lessons need to be learned from the Havelock North Incident.

But was has Central Government learned. First they blame the farmers unjustifiably so. Yet 23 years later successive governments have turned deliberately absent minded- where the Local Govt Act 2002 still remains with the same errors as when it was presented to the House. Where Trade Waste Consent Breeches still remain a cause of significant concern. Where Stats  that were present a couple of years ago now  the 2024-2025 Stats for Trade Waste Consent breaches are clearly absent from the publics eye.

DEATHS CAUSED BY COVID19 JAB ‘EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT’

A written question to the Commission ‘European Parliament submitted 13th April 2023

Deaths that have been caused by COVID Vaccines (Reported by European Parliament)

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) reported that 11 448 people have died in the EU following COVID-19 vaccines[1],

8 368 following Pfizer BioNTech vaccinations (which is 1 345 more deaths in 2022).

1 579 following AstraZeneca vaccinations.

1 161 following Moderna vaccinations.

339 following Janssen vaccinations.

1 following Nuvaxovid vaccinations.

0 following (inactivated, adjuvanted) Valneva vaccinations.

As of 10 April 2023, a total of 50 648 deaths caused by ‘COVID vaccines’ had been reported in EudraVigilance – broken down by disease (heart conditions, central nervous system disorders, etc.). Why then, in the EMA’s latest report of 8 December 2022, is it stated that only 11 448 deaths were flagged and recorded in the EudraVigilance database?

A link was provided Latest figures published by the EMA on 8 December 2022 (situation as of 23.11.2022 https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/covid-19-vaccine-safety-update/covid-19-vaccines-safety-update-8-december-2022_en.pdf)

A BILLION DATA BREACHES ‘BUT YOU CAN TRUST THE DATA!

(25 page PDF author Prof Stuart E Madnick Ph.D December 2023). The Continued Threat to Personal Data. Key Factors Behind the 2023 Increase. (December 2023) Over 2.6 billion personal records were breached in 2021 and 2022 (1.1 billion in 2021 and 1.5 billion in 2022).  * The number of data breaches more than tripled between 2013 and 2022.2    * According to a 2023 report, over 80% of data breaches involved data stored in the cloud.   * In the first three quarters of 2023, the number of ransomware attacks increased by almost 70% compared to the first three quarters of 2022.  * 98% of organizations have a relationship with a vendor that experienced a data breach within the last two years  * In the first eight months of 2023 alone, over 360 million people were victims of corporate and institutional data breaches.   * In the first three quarters of 2023, one in four people in the US had their health data exposed in a data breach

RNZ Reported 3rd June 2021 The number of cyber security incidents reported in New Zealand has risen 25% since this time last year (2020-2021). Government agency CERT NZ’s quarterly report shows there have been 1431 cyber security incidents in the first quarter of this year. The financial loss due to cyber attacks is 7%. Almost a ¼ of the breaches resulted in financial loss totaling $3 Million. Six cases involved in the loss of $100,000 or more. 278 incidents were referred to the police, an increase of 46% compared with the previous quarter

 

Ministry of Justice chief operating officer Carl Crafar said at this stage, it’s believed the incident affected access to approximately 14,500 coronial files relating to the transportation of deceased people, and approximately 4000 post-mortem reports. Stuff NZ reported 5th October 2019 ‘Up to 1 million NZ patients data has been breached in a criminal cyber hack. Tu Ora Compass Health CEO Martin Hefforf confirmed this, that medical data could be in criminal hands after cyber attacks dating back years.  Wellington, Kapiti and Wairarapa Primary Health Organization (PHO) Tu Pra Compass Health confirmed anyone enrolled in a medical centre in the region between 2002- 2019 could be affected.

The extent of the patient files that were accessed was impossible to ascertain. PHO’s held individual data such as medical centre enrolment information including names, addressed, ethnicities, ages. It also held data that could be linked to individual patients advised on stopping smoking and alcohol related intake issues. Some information relating to children that were due for their immunizations, also those that were having diabetes checks, flu jabs, women recalled for cervical screening and people due for heart and diabetes checks. Also mental health counselling service information on patients. The current population area covered was about 648,00, but information goes back to 2001- until 2019. Therefore this could be personal information on living and dead people as well.

A newly-released report into last year’s cyber attack of the Waikato District Health Board said Te Whatu Ora needs to “think like a hacker” when building its security softwares. The ransomware attack last May brought the DHB’s hospitals and services to a halt for days, as it tried to restore its IT systems.

 

RNZ reported 4th July 2020 ‘Details of active COVID 19 cases leaked in privacy breach. Stating there has been a massive privacy breach, with the leak of personal details revealing the identity of New Zealand’s 18 active Covid cases. RNZ has seen a document that includes the full names, addresses, age and the names of the hotel and one hospital the 18 have been quarantining in. Newshub reported 6/12/2022 Thousands of corona’s files, post mortem reports caught up in ministry of Justice hack. National Cyber Security, Ministry of Health, also police found evidence of cyber hacks going back to 2016. It was said that they will never know if individual patient has been accessed, it is likely they would never know , it was said. It was unclear who was behind the attacks, where they originated from, for what purpose, though one theory was ‘harvesting information for the purpose of identity theft’

Te Whatu Ora reported on their website there had been a cyber security incident affecting an IT service provider that has impacted Access to Te Whatu Ora data relating to bereavement and carias services.

CORRUPTION OF TE TIRITI O WAITANGI AND THE MASKED SILENCE ‘INDIGENOUS PEOPLES’

In the 1960’a Maasai radical activist (Moringe Ole Parkipuny) former member of Tanzanian Parliament coined the phrase ‘Indigenous People’ . August 1989 he was the first African so called ‘Indigenous Person’ (A self-determined Indigenous Person) to address the UN Working Group on Indigenous Populations in Geneva. He laid the foundations for the UN 2007 adopted UN Declaration for Indigenous Peoples Rights (UNDRIP)

An article written more recently in the New Yorker Magazine by Maniv Singh wrote ‘Many groups who identify as Indigenous don’t claim to be first peoples, many who did come first don’t claim to be Indigenous’. Winston Peters recently stated that Maori are not Indigenous to NZ they come from Hawaiki, but those that self identify in NZ as Indigenous People argue “they are Indigenous People’

Many African view the term ‘Indigenous People’ as having negative connotations, that concerted radical activists call themselves Indigenous People as do their international partners. Referring to the obsessive shift in attitudes. In Africa ‘Indigenous People’ call themselves the dominant class stating they reflect the interests activities beliefs of the majority. The so called ‘Indigenous People’ of New Zealand have taken the same attitude as if they are speaking for all those people with Maori ancestry, calling them ‘Our People’, without consent or consensus.

The Parkipuny coined phrase has become an expanded dominant force used as a political, economically rewarding tool to favour one group over all others in Nation States. Thus influencing environmental legislations and Resource Management, riddled in Identity Politics of Oppression and Victimhood. Useful in character assassinating Non-Maori whom oppose their narrative by demonizing industrialization in colonies. (Back to Tribal Feudalism- Decolonize everything) INSANITY.

The re-story telling, re-imaginings of a tribal warfare being non-=existent, that those of Maori ancestry were people of the forest that lived peacefully amongst themselves. Masking, silencing the genocide in the Chatham Island of the Morori by Maori tribalism, they were easy bait being peaceful loving people. The tribal warfare  attacks, slavery, torture, cannibalism to expose these facts one would be targeted as Racist, White Supremacist even those that have Maori ancestry have exposed this and also called white supremacists too.

The so called ‘Indigenous People’ aiding the Globalist Agenda 2030 ‘Our Future’ Leave No-one Behind, everyone, everywhere at every age- the main actors of this massive transformation are the UN & WEF, UN Nation Governments, Globalist Elite and Iwi Elite – Corporations, Global Asset Managers, Philanthropists eg Rockefeller, Gates Foundation etc., COP 28 ‘Indigenous People are at the centre, forefront of the global transformation Agenda 2030.

Like the words ‘Partnership’ Principles they were not created by the original Maori Version of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and nor was the phase ‘Indigenous People’. How did that coined Parkipuny phrase enter New Zealand? George Manuel President of the Canadian Indian Brotherhood with a Canadian Delegation visited to NZ, this was arranged by Justin Trudeau father Pierre Trudeau in 1971. George Manuel met with Maori Politicians where discussions took place on the use of the phrase ‘Indigenous People’

George Manual and the Canadian Delegation then travelled to a university in the Northern Territories of Australia where Manuel gave a speech to Aboriginal students on ‘Indigenous People’. Travelling from one place to another, the Parkipuny coined phrase ‘Indigenous People’ expanded across the world. George Manuel then established the UN International Indigenous Peoples Council. At one UN gathering 100+ native, tribal people walked out in protest complaining they had never consented to being classed as ‘Indigenous People’

The adopted ‘self determined’ identification ‘Indigenous People’ a one label for many natives, tribes, with numerous various cultures, traditions and globally 4,000 plus different languages. George Manuel was influential in planning the UNDRIP which took many years to plan, also Maori Ngati Awa hosted the first International Conference on Indigenous Cultural & Intellectual property rights

On the drafting of the UN Declaration for the Rights of Indigenous People many governments actively opposed it because of legal arguments such as NZ, Canada, US and Canada. It was in 1985 that enough UN Nation States agreed to drafting the UN Declaration hence establishing a working group to draft a plan. Maori from New Zealand were involved. Moana Jackson was a chairperson at the UN in 1990. Also involved were Joe Williams, Aroha Mead the daughter of Alec Kaihau who was also involved. Nganeko Minhinnick and her brother -Alec Kaihau (A family affair you could say. However as the years went by more Maori were involved in the drafting of the UNDRIP including Aunty Pauline Tangiora.

The Non-binding UNDRIP was first adopted at New York UN Headquarters 13th September 2007 (143 countries in favour of the UNDRIP- 4 countries rejected it-Australia, Canada, US, NZ- 11 abstained). Over the years Clair Charters who has been awarded a role in the NZ Human Rights Commission, Tracy Whare, Maona Sinclair and Catherine Davis are self determined advocates of the UNDRIP the goal being to implement this in New Zealand.

So why did the Labour Govt reject the 2007 UNDRIP.? Rosemary Banks was the representative of NZ that spoke for NZ at the UN Assembly on 13th Sept 2007, she explained to the gathering why NZ opposed the UNDRIP. She referenced 4 Provisions in and 4 articles that were non compliant to NZ that NZ has difficulty with. The text of the UN Declaration being fundamentally incompatible with NZ’s Constitutional and Legal arrangements also the Treaty Of Waitangi and the principle of governing NZ for the ‘GOOD OF ALL NZ CITIZENS’

Article 26 of the UN Declaration on Lands and Resources, Article 28 on Redress (Compensation) Articles 10 and 32 on ‘Rights of Veto Over The State’ . Article 26 states that ‘Indigenous Peoples’ have the right to own, use, develop or control lands, territories they have traditionally owned, occupied, used. This means the entire country of NZ being potentially caught up in the scope of this article. Does not recognize the rights of land lawfully owned by other citizens. Indigenous People would have rights that others do not have. Does not take into account land tenures.

The whole country would fall under Article 28 of the UNDRIP on ‘Redress’ (Compensation0. Does not take into account the land occupies by others legitimately. Implies that Indigenous People have  the Right to Veto that other groups or individuals do not have. The Provisions of the UNDRIP are so fundamentally incompatible with the democratic processes of NZ as a Sovereign Nation State, with legislation and NZ’s Constitutional arrangements.

Implies Indigenous People have the Veto Rights over Democratic Legislature & National Resource Management. Implies 2 classes of citizenship. Supporters of the UNDRIP in 2007 at the UN Assembly explained the UN Declaration as being an ‘aspirational’ document, one of inspiration rather than having a legal effect. In 2010 John Key under the National Govt arranged under a veil of secrecy for Pita Sharples of the Maori Party to sign the UNDRIP at the UN. Those other UN Nations States that rejected the UNDRIP have since agreed to it.

November 21-23rd 2023 a convention took place at Auckland University with overseas guests and speakers namely ‘The Korero Constitution’ referencing the enabling of the UNDRIP into NZ’s Constitutional arrangements. Nanaia Mahuta opened the 2nd day of the convention.

As the Three Party Coalition openly talk about the ‘Principles of the Treaty Of Waitangi’, time to bring certain issues of concern, and the facts to the eyes of NZ Citizens. The original Maori Version of Te Tiriti o Waitangi did not create a ‘Partnership’ nor ‘Principles’ nor was the coined Parkipuny phrase ‘Indigenous Peoples’ created by Te Tiriti O Waitangi. Te Tiriti O Waitangi NZ’s founding document has been severely corrupted.

Recent COP 28 gathering “Indigenous People’ are at the centre, forefront of Climate Change, the Global Agenda 2030’

CORPORATE IWI ELITE GET RICH AT YOUR EXPENSE ‘WHETHER YOU HAVE MAORI ANCESTRY OR NOT YOU FOOT THE BILL’

PUBLIC ASSETS BELONG TO ALL NEW ZEALANDERS:  Firstly ‘What is a Publicly Owned Asset’.? This is ‘Public Commercial Assets owned by the ‘Public Sector’ that are able to generate income that the Government control. (they belong to all New Zealanders)

REFERENCE TO AN ARTICLE 14th March 2011 published by Dr Muriel Newman titled ‘Corporate Iwi Get Rich At Your Expense’ (Dr Muriel Newman established the NZ Centre for political Research as a ‘Public Policy Think-Tank’ in 2005 after 9 years as a Member of parliament, A Former Chamber of Commerce President. Her publication includes the description of a ‘shadowy, powerful group of tribal elite’, the driving force behind the acquisition of public assets (The assets that ALL Citizens own). The claiming of assets as an ‘Indigenous Right’. The group penetrating Maori and National Parties.

 

Auckland University Guest Commentator of NZCPR Prof. Elizabeth Rata has written extensively about dangers of NZ’s Liberal Democratic System of ‘Iwi Indigenous Rights’ Strategy. The threatening of the preservation of our ‘public commons’ eg ‘the coastline, National Parks, Water, Air- as the Iwi Elite seek to privatize ‘public assets’. Rata refers to a speech namely ‘People Power or Ethnic Elites?’ which was given to the ‘Anatomy of Power Conference at Auckland University in 2005’

 

As she explained the strategies over the previous 5 years as being a shift of strategies used by Iwi in their quest for ‘property rights’ and ‘constitutional recognition’ The using the Treaty Of Waitangi as a justification for a comprehensive indigenous group rights argument. The claiming customary rights are property rights guarantreed under English Common Law.

Elizabeth Rata states how interpretation is crucial ‘If Iwi approach were to be successful’, however the consequences for NZ are very serious. “The Property Rights argument will privatize large public socio-economic assets into the hands of Iwi Corporations” she said. “Hence creating a permenant gap between the small iwi elite with aristocratic pretensions on the one hand and the majority of New Zealanders of all ethnicities on the other”. This being the ‘inclusion of Iwi into the nations constitutional arrangement, that will undermine integrity and the constitutional arrangements of New Zealand

This concept may seem of remote academic interest but I want to show today how its interpretation is crucial. If the iwi approach were to be successful, the consequences for New Zealand are serious. The property rights argument will privatise large public socio-economic assets into the hands of iwi corporations. This will create a permanent gap between a small iwi elite with aristocratic pretensions on the one hand and the majority of New Zealanders of all ethnicities on the other. The larger group rights argument for the inclusion of iwi into the nation’s constitutional arrangements will undermine the integrity of the New Zealand nation.”

The Iwi Elite with the insatiable appetite for public resources, for the National Party to stay in power at that time they were prepared to sacrifice public ownershop of the coast of New Zealand to the Iwi Elite. 2003 the National Party reinterpreted a Court of Appeal ruling that indicated that some rare, remote and hard to prove pockets of customary title to the foreshore

What Elizabeth warned about in 2005 is occurring today. The Marine and Coastal Area Bill will privatise to iwi corporations the public commons that makes up the entire coastal area of New Zealand. The government has never sought an open mandate from the public for this course of action. It is instead the result of a cosy deal between powerful iwi interests – with an insatiable appetite for public resources – and a National Party that is so desperate to stay in power that it is prepared to sacrifice public ownership of the coast and seabed might still exit in NZ, as justification for the repeal of public ownership of the entire coastline. To ensure that Iwi Elite succeeded with their claim National reversed the burden of proof, Iwi would not have to prove customary title exists, the Crow

To pursue their goal, the National Party reinterpreted a 2003 Court of Appeal ruling, that indicated that some rare, remote and hard to prove pockets of customary title to the foreshore and seabed might still exist in New Zealand, as justification for the repeal of public ownership of the entire coastline.

To make sure elite iwi will succeed with their claims National has reversed the burden of proof: iwi will not have to prove customary title exits. Mational ruled out for Iwi to have to prove claims in a court of law, instead allowing deals to transfer millions if not billions of dollars worth of public assets to private corporation (Public assets that belong to ALL New Zealanders).

This was done through secret negotiations with a Government Minister. Additional to this they significantly lowered the threshold tests to ensure vast tracts of PUBLIC COASTLINE were transferred into Iwi Elite private hands.Please Note: Iwi Elite we voice “Our People”, however they do not have consent to speak for ALL people with Maori Ancestry DO NOT represent all people with Maori Ancestry,

They speak out of ‘Self Interest-Self Rewards’. Key members of the Iwi Elite make up the Iwi Chairs Forum that includes Mark Solomon, Tuku Morgan, Sommy Tau, Margaret Mutu, Toko Renata, Ngahiwi Tomoana, Apirana Mahuika. All have a close association with the government and have personally benefited, for instance Tuky Morgan was paid out at least $141,000 in directors fees, add $100,000 success fee’s for completing Tainui Waikato Settlement. He was also paid as a Crown Facilitator to help with the Iwi settlement process. Between November 2008 and March 1st, the Office Of Treaty Settlements paid him $171,000

In 2011 Maori Corporations were estimated to be worth $25 billion almost half the value of the NZ Stock Exchange (Wealth gained from privatization of public assets (Publically owned by ALL New Zealanders) given to them by successive NZ Governments, and they always want more and more.

Collectively, Maori corporations are understood to be worth as much as $25 billion – almost half of the value of the New Zealand stock exchange. This is the wealth that has originated from the privatization of public assets given to them by successive government. But now they want more. With their huge appetite for wealth and power, they have a mineral rich foreshore and seabed, the generating of vast commercial returns from mining iron-sands, setting up marine farms, and a myrid of commercial opportunities that have arisen out of their ownership rights

The Iwi Leaders Forum have held regular meetings with successive governments, given access to confidential cabinet papers. The Māori Party having this cozy relationship with the National Iwi Chairs Forum as they have emerged as the key stakeholder group. The Māori Party allowing them access to the key cabinet strategy committee on Treaty issues which has comprised of successive governments.

If Iwi Elite Leaders want it, so do they Maori Party. Iwi Elite through the Māori Party doorway the focus on the prime target being the ownership and control of fresh water. Whanau Ora providing a wide range of lucrative opportunities for Iwi Elite to contract out service provisions in social areas including Housing and Corrections.

Margaret Mutu has been an influential voice, activist of the Iwi Elite, appointed the Chair of the Iwi Leaders Constitution Group with Moana Jackson the convenor (Moana Jackson had a special role at the UN UNDRIP Planning in 1990) Iwi Leaders Group preparation of a report namely ‘ to be the dissemination to Iwi and given to the Crown as the model for New Zealand’s Constitutional arrangements.

Now the National Party ‘Chriss Luxon’ Prime minister has been put in a dire situation as with Winston Peters NZ First and David Seymour -Act Party. Because the National Party had been jumping to the tune of the powerful Iwi Elite Corporations, to privatize valuable ‘Public Assets) owned by ALL New Zealanders. National Party had ceded to their demands, betrayed the vast majority of New Zealanders, successive governments have not protected our public assets, or the publics interests.
