The next problem that people might say is: that the legislation as it stands is discriminatory, that it allows Māori wards to be challenged by petition and referendum but not other types of wards. On that basis, the Government putting up this bill has a point. But here's the thing: if we want to create a more democratic society where people can be safe and prosperous and feel included, then the right thing to do—if their objection was to people petitioning and using referenda to remove only Māori wards, there's a very simple change they could have made—is they could have given people the right to recall all types of wards. That would have been simple if they truly believed in democracy and equality, but they haven't done that, and why? Well, I suspect it's because every time there's been a vote, those pesky people—you know, the electors of New Zealand, the ratepayers that fund the councils—they've been getting it wrong. You see, they're supposed to say yes to Māori wards, and almost every time they're asked they say no. There's two possibilities for how the Government could deal with that situation: they could accept the will of the people or they could just stop asking, and that is why they've decided to stop asking. That is the wrong approach to solving the problem.
