This Government is an example of the new democracy. We got 37 percent, they got 44 percent. We became the Government—that couldn't have happened; under MMP, that's the new democracy. What does the Opposition not understand about a new democracy? The representation of Ngāi Tahu on the Canterbury Regional Council for some reason scares them. It scares their friend Mike Hosking on Newstalk ZB so much, but Mike doesn't need to be frightened by Māori gaining what's been promised to them under the Treaty. We live in a democracy with one another and seek genuine engagement to build bridges, not walls. Unfortunately, the right refuse to accept this. This is a maturing of our democracy. We seek to frame co-governance as a positive way forward. The right frames it as a racist evil by manufacturing "one person, one vote" outrage, when the very democratic system they claim to defend allows for many values that go beyond that.
