Decisions Are Being Delegated to Iwi

A weak government and apathetic public are taking us towards an unworkable mishmash of democracy and ethnocracy.

This is an excellent article by Fiona MacKenzie and well worth a read.

She has precisely summed up the dangerous situation NZ now finds itself in. We find ourselves in the position due to one simple fact – PUBLIC APATHY.

We are witnessing a massive overreach of influence and power by a minority section of our society. Influence and power that is enabled by public apathy and facilitated by disingenuous and duplicitous politicians.

Our country is being appropriated, in front of our eyes. We are effectively being disenfranchised. Or, to put it more bluntly – marginalised and disregarded by our government as they inexplicably support the cementing of Māori authority and control.

A weak government and apathetic public are taking us towards an unworkable mishmash of democracy and ethnocracy. National have to wake up and stand up. Stand up more strongly for democracy and equal rights for all.

Polls show an increasing risk of a Labour/Green/TPM government next year and people’s memories are so pathetically short they cannot see that Labour’s economic management when combined with the Greens/Māori Party racist ideology would see New Zealand submerge into third world status.

With frustration building across the country, I wonder how long it will be before some heavy-weight questions will come forth requiring Mr Luxon to relay some solid direction for New Zealand to grow – over and above ‘Aotearoa’? Does Mr Luxon actually want that to happen?

New Zealand has gone backwards for two years now and the models, indications and expectations have achieved very little!

Does no one care that a minority of our population is being supported, encouraged and abetted by publicly elected politicians and public servants in their quest to impose tribal rule in New Zealand?

Fiona MacKenzie writes:

New Zealanders who pay attention to the slow creep of our political and legal institutions have every reason to feel uneasy. Many believed the 2023 election would halt the advance of racial division and restore a government committed to equal citizenship. Instead, the coalition – particularly the National Party – seems schizophrenically determined to avoid offending those who demand ever-expanding tribal privilege. Far from dismantling race-based policy, it is still normalising it in much legislation and policy.

This is how authoritarian projects begin. Soft-sounding narratives take root. Media amplifies them. Bureaucracies internalise them. And ordinary people – fearful of social punishment – stay silent. In 2025, this pattern is unmistakable.
Even the newest environmental laws bend in one direction. The October 2025 Hauraki Gulf Marine Protection Act still allows commercial fishing (and Māori own 40 per cent of quotas) if there’s no seafloor contact. It also preserves iwi fishing privileges within what are supposed to be ‘High Protection Areas’, while banning everyone else.
