Re: Ngati Aukiwa is fighting for their land

Ae, tautoko ki Ngati Aukiwa, kia kaha e te iwi nei.

How's this for a radical idea?
Let the minister go cap in hand to the Station leaseholders, compensate them for their loss of livelihood, and then GIVE THE LAND BACK, since we all know that shipping livestock or refrigerated meat out of NZ is going to be an unsustainable business within a decade... pay attention to the oilshock, Cullen!

Letting Hapu & Iwi decide how to sustainably manage land in order to be self-sustaining might just work, if the Government ever got used to the idea of allowing citizens some ability to have a real say in community self-governance.

HONOUR the Treaty, rather than this shabby proceedings which brings shame on all in Aotearoa.
