I refuse to allow my tamariki or my mokopuna to one day sit in the same seat asking the same question. We will no longer accept this approach, as it allows the State to continue to feast on the dysfunction that it has created amongst our people. We will no longer accept that the State continues to fund itself every year to allow Oranga Tamariki to steal more of our babies, a justice system to lock up more of our people, a welfare system that keeps my people dependent and poor, an education system that keeps my people dumb, a health system that keeps my people sick, and a housing system that keeps my people homeless. This has to stop. Einstein said stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. It is time to transform the way we do politics in Aotearoa. It is time for Māori to look after Māori, as we know what is best for us. COVID-19 lockdown showed how Māori can look after themselves without Government support or intervention.
