For decades now, we've talked about two fundamental parts of our democracy: about having equal voting rights for all New Zealanders, and, secondly, accountability at the ballot box. Now, this bill will change both elements of those things and discard both of them. The reality in this bill is that when you strip everything away, this is about pipes in the ground. Kiwis want those things to deliver, and co-governance will not help us achieve that goal. Pipes do not differentiate based on race.
