IS ANZAC DAY FOR HONOURING THE WAR DEAD OR ADVANCING AN “INDIGENOUS” AGENDA?

My earliest memory of Anzac Day is as a child standing on Wellington’s Lambton Quay watching the parade pass – first some army jeeps with about a dozen very old men in them – too old to march. These were the Boer War veterans. Next came a mass of grey-haired men – a few with walking sticks and the odd wooden leg or so but all of them in jackets and ties and wearing their colourful medals. These were the First World War men.

Then an even larger group of much younger men – again all in jackets and ties and with medals and banners proclaiming Alamein, Crete, Italy and, of course, a handful of Battle of Britain fighter pilots. Then a much smaller bunch of much younger looking Korean War vets brought up the rear together with Wrens and bands and other things to impress my young mind.

This was the way that Anzac Days had been commemorated ever since the first Anzac Day in 1916 and, because of its sacred character and deeply personal meaning for those who had lost loved ones, that is how it should always be commemorated – except that the old men in the jeeps are no longer those who fought on the veldt but the diminishing band of those who served in the Solomons, Normandy and elsewhere in the Second World War.

That was then – when New Zealanders were one people and before the newly formed tribal elite of one-eighth and one-sixteenth part-Maoris have tried to take over the country, pushing the rest of us out of the way – even on Anzac Day. Governments – both National and Labour – have been collaborators in this crime, starting with renaming the National War Memorial in Wellington “Pukeahu” – whatever that means.

The Ministry of Culture and Heritage produced a programme that had everything from prayers to hymns in two languages – with the so-called Maori language taking first position and primacy over English. In other words this wretched Ministry is collaborating with the tribal elite to bring about division in a society that was once united. There is nothing more divisive than promoting two languages where there was only one before in all official functions.

The  ceremony at Wellington began with a “karakia” – in Maori, of course – as if the 2% or 3% of New Zealanders who understand this primitive and largely recently made-up tongue are the only ones who matter. There was also a “karanga” – whatever that is – and a response (all in Maori). The ceremony finished up with a Maori hymn “E Te Ariki” and an ode by the President of the Returned Servicemen’s Association (R.S.A.) in Maori which appears to be a translation of that well-known and moving verse “They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old”. This followed the Maori “ode” even though an ode is a form of English poetry that had no place in Maori culture as the Maoris didn’t even have a written language until the missionaries arrived in the early 19th century and gave them one.

Then it was the National Anthem – in Maori first, of course – and the last thing that the people were forced to suffer was yet another karakia in Maori to polish off proceedings.

In Rotorua the Dawn Service in 2025 was conducted not by the Rotorua R.S.A. , which includes all returned servicemen, but by some race-based racket called Te Arawa Maori Returned Servicemen’s League. This one started with a “mihi” (welcome) and then all the rest in an exercise that was more about advancing Maori culture and language and putting down the white man than honouring the war dead.

If anything it was worse in Australia where gutless Returned Servicemen’s Leagues, in cahoots with state governments, began many of the services with the new phenomenon of “Welcome to Country” – the Aborigines welcoming Australians to their own country!!!!!

One of the worst of these “humiliation rituals” across the Ditch was in Melbourne where some part-Aborigine, with the very English name of Mark Brown, said, “I’m here to welcome everybody to my father’s country [not everybody else’s country!]”. He then hogged the limelight for four minutes with similar nonsense. “They didn’t die for this” called out someone while others booed this demonstration of divisiveness and racism.

In Sydney the main Dawn Service was hogged by another part-Aborigine (all part of Australia’s tribal elite) called “Uncle” Ray Minniecon, who gave his Acknowledgement of Country as if the Anzac service could not proceed without this little piece of arrogant racism. No surprisingly he was booed too. He was wearing three medals that he did not earn – and on the wrong side of his chest!

In an interview after the service “Uncle” told the ABC, “This is Aboriginal land. Always was and always will be too. So we stand on the truth. And the truth can’t be shaken”. Why have an enemy of Australia such as this clown to spit venom on Australia’s heritage and rights that the brave Diggers fought for in the two world wars?

When asked about the booing of his “Acknowledgement of Country” Uncle said that those who booed “should understand their place”. In other words in a country that once respected free speech they should now bow down to the demands of the tribal elite and say nothing.

So, what is this new phenomenon of “Welcome to the Country” to Australians whose families have lived there for 200 years, who built the country and whose taxes now pay for the massive Aborigine welfare bill? Well, this is what South Australia’s Minister of Aboriginal Affairs, Kyam Maher [a man], said, “Being welcomed to country is something that Aboriginal people have done for tens of thousands of years, welcoming OTHER ABORIGINAL PEOPLE to their particular country”. So why use it for welcoming non-Aboriginal Australians who do not need such pious and condescending waffle as they travel around their great continent?

The barely concealed racism and race hatred towards white people at these ceremonies was described by “First Nations woman” [not “Australian woman”] Colleen Clarke, as “It’s welcoming people to OUR country”.

Instead of clamping down on the introduction of all this racism into Anzac services many of the authorities in Australia are promoting it. At the Dawn Service at King’s Park, Perth, a few hours behind the eastern states, police moved in on certain persons in the crowd and moved five people on from the gathering, saying “Due to your association with the March for Australia group you’re being moved from the ceremony due to the belief that you’ll interrupt it”.

This is the stuff of dictatorship. How do the cops know whether or not someone will do something before it is actually done? Do they think they’re God? And what about free speech which was one of the things that our servicemen fought for in the world wars? Australian police are better known for their corruption than their efficiency and this is yet another example of that well known fact.

In the two world wars Australian servicemen fought our external enemies  such as Germany and Japan. Now we need to fight the internal enemies such as “Uncle” and all the others who are trying to use Anzac Day to promote their own greedy and racist agendas. And yet the authorities, including some of the R.S.L.s, give such types a platform on Anzac Day.

Fortunately not all R.S.L.s in Australia were so craven and cowardly as they were in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and other places. There was none of this nonsense in Townsville where the President of the Townsville Returned Servicemen’s Association, Mr. Colin Mosch, said, “The Anzac Day Dawn Service is about one thing, remembering those who have served and have paid the ultimate sacrifice”. Neither Shakespeare not Kipling could have expressed it better. That is the line that we should have in New Zealand too.

Tribal Takeover of New Zealand

, , , , Democracy, Maori

By William Chambers

Labour Minister Kieran McAnulty on Maori special treatment: “There are provisions that we have in this country that wouldn’t stand up to a purely academic DEMOCRATIC framework … but that’s not how we work in New Zealand”.

That statement from one of the Labour Party’s top Ministers proves that our country is openly UNDEMOCRATIC.

Meaning New Zealand has become the most RACIST country in the free world.

And Kieran McAnulty is touted as the next Labour Party leader.  And thus, a future Prime Minister!!!  God forbid.

McAnulty, being of “socialist” persuasion (just like Jacinda) would gladly accede to Te Pati Maori’s demand for a new Treaty Commissioner with the power to overrule Parliament.  Which will spell the end to our DEMOCRACY.

And the racist co-leader of Te Pati Maori (the separatist party) Rawiri Waititi, clearly showed his true colours when he said, quote: “I’m not a fan of DEMOCRACY”.

Professor Elizabeth Rata, from Auckland University has warned, quote: “The final step for Maori in the defeat of DEMOCRACY will be tribal sovereignty.  A coup d’état.”

The term d’état means gaining ‘control’ of government by a small group using false pretences (fraud) rather than force.

Professor Rata has also said: “Whether it is co-governance partnerships, different forms of democracy, undefined principles, tikanga-based consultations, or simply race-based priority, the result is much the same, i.e. the destruction of DEMOCRACY.”

Research Scientist, Dr John Robinson believes that: “We live in a divided, racist, apartheid state which is having its DEMOCRACY ripped away.”

Anthony Willy, a Law Lecturer and former Judge said, quote: “We are witnessing a coup designed to dismantle our DEMOCRACY and replace it with the worst form of tribalism, coupled with the greed of those who want what they have not earned.”

Garrick Tremain, who after 35 years of producing brilliantly insightful cartoons on political matters in NZ, has said, quote: “I could foresee the slippery slope that would bring this country to the sad state it is in today … where politicians, afraid of upsetting belligerent treaty claimants, have honored falsehoods to the detriment of our DEMOCRACY.”

And this outrageous situation is due to fraudulent government policy, based on fake virtue signalling … at the cost of fair and equal DEMOCRACY.

There are some dishonest politicians who should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this disgraceful loss of our lawful DEMOCRATIC “rights”.

The question that needs to be asked is why so many naïve people can’t see that the preferential Maori favouritism (apartheid) that has been allowed to destroy this country’s DEMOCRACY is based on fraud of unimaginable magnitude.

ANOTHER PROPOSED “TREATY” RACKET

April 2, 2026
, , , , , , Maori, Treaty of Waitangi

Guess what! The pale faces of the tribal elite have just thought up a new way of extracting more money out of the long-suffering taxpayer. This time it’s TEETH.

That master of one-sided bias and misinformation, the taxpayer funded Radio New Zealand, reported on 20 March, 2026, that the reason why so many Maori have bad teeth is because of “colonisation”. Without bothering to check the accuracy of what it was reporting it gave its piece the blazing headline of “Calls grow for Universal Te Tiriti consistent dental care”. Where in the Treaty can be found – or even implied – anything to do with teeth? Nowhere, as it was a treaty of cession (Article 1) by the chiefs to get rule by a single sovereign so as to bring about a much needed peace and good order to a land and society that was being destroyed by endless tribal war and cannibalism.

Some character called Jasmine Taankink, speaking for “Dental For All” claimed that “poor oral outcomes for Maori could not be separated from colonisation”. She went on, “We know that upon arrival to Aotearoa [she doesn’t even know the name of the country], English settlers were really impressed with the overall physical health of our tupuna Maori, especially their oral health……Our tupuna Maori didn’t have cavities, they didn’t have massive oral health problems. So poor oral health is just another negative implication of colonisation and us not being able to exercise our tino rangatiratanga”. She said that solutions must be grounded in “Maori led approaches. We have the expertise within our own communities to develop solutions that work for us”, implying that dental treatments that work for all other human beings somehow do not work for “Maori”.

This outburst was reinforced by Leeann Waaka, described as a “dental therapist of the Maori Dental Association”. [Yes, they even have to have a race-based dental association that is separate from the rest of New Zealand]. Leeann Waaka is by appearance European but, like so many on the separatist express, she has disfigured her chin by having it etched with scribble that resembles a map of the London Underground. This, of course, gives them more “street cred” in the highly lucrative separatist industry. This is what she said, “pushing for a Te Tiriti consistent system which would mean properly RESOURCING Maori providers and enabling iwi and hapu to design services that meet the needs of their people”. No dental qualifications needed! Just more money for iwi and hapu.

The key word in her quote is, of course “resourcing” which means sucking on the teat of the taxpayer in a very big way just as the corrupt and worthless Whanau Ora health racket has poured money into the tribes without any apparent positive results. Other people of all races go to the doctor, dentist and hospitals when they need to but Maori are deemed to be so different from all other human beings that they have to have their own non-science based “health system”. Why don’t they just call it a money racket and be done with it?

In demanding “resourcing” from the taxpayer they are following the lead of Whanau Ora which was set up in 2010 by the Maori Party co-leader, Tariana Turia – another example of John Key cheating the taxpayer by caving  in to the demands of the tribal elite. Its stated purpose “to provide health and social services to Maori” was not only racist but every bit as deceitful as Mrs. Turia’s earlier claim that the colonisation of New Zealand was a “holocaust” This was a straight out lie and brings into question her credibility on any other matter.

Her Whanau Ora, which has already cost the taxpayer hundreds of millions of dollars, is more a slush fund for iwi than a health service. It has created numerous back office jobs and private ticket clipping without producing any noticeable improvement in the health of Maoris.

As soon as it got off the ground thousands of people claiming to be “Maori” were able to access up to $20,000 of Whanau Ora cash for family get-togethers, as Winston Peters told Parliament on 7 February, 2012. He said that many of those who allocated all these hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of Whanau Ora were working for the recipients (their own families, tribe), creating a conflict of interest.

Otaki’s Rahui Rugby and Sports Club received $60,000 in 2011 “to undertake whanau development research on resilience and community leadership” – a “bro-ocracy” in Mr. Peters’ words. One Hawkes Bay “whanau” of only twenty members received $5,000 to run a hui (booze-up) to “finalise spiritual balance” and “family development”; this included $500 each for two “facilitators”, $400 for a venue, $1,000 for a hangi, $600 for a chef, a $500 administration fee (of course!), $300 for travel, and $1,200 for “resources”. And there is no reason to suppose that giving tax dollars to unqualified iwi and hapu for TEETH would be any different.

To say that the poor state of teeth of to-day’s part-Maoris is a result of colonisation is a lie for which any radio station other than Radio New Zealand would be utterly ashamed. As for stating that those Europeans who had early contact with Maoris were impressed by their teeth and general good health, all the evidence points in the other direction.

Fern root was more or less their daily sustenance whereas kumera was regarded more as an occasional luxury. They would dig, dry, beat and roast the fern root and then chew it. In the words of John Nicholas who accompanied Samuel Marsden to New Zealand in 1814-5: “Being thus prepared for use, the cooks throw it [the fern root] round in handfuls to the chiefs and other persons, who chew it till all the sacharine or nutritive matter is extracted; and, spitting out the fibrous part, they go on again and continue in this manner till they have satisfied their appetites. The fern root, when hot, has a pleasant, sweetish taste and, on being steeped in water, deposes a glutinous substance resembling jelly”. (Narrative of a Voyage to New Zealand, Vol. I. P. 190-1)

War parties ate only fern root as it was the food of Tu, the god of war, “kumera and all other kinds of food are forbidden till the war is over”. (Te Rou, or the Maori at Home, John White, P. 114) However, the constant gnawing of the tough roots of the fern as well as the gritty shellfish and other hard foods wore away the teeth so that by about the age of twenty the teeth at the back of the mouth were worn to stumps. It didn’t help that they also chewed the big stalks of the pampas grass (toetoe).

“Early European observers such as Captain Cook frequently misjudged the age of Maoris as their toothless state made them appear much older than they were”, wrote Bill Benfield in The Third Wave; Poisoning the Land. (P. 14) Needless to say, colonisation brought dental care as the first decades of the nineteenth century saw tremendous strides in the skills and knowledge of dentistry throughout the Western world. Part-Maoris of to-day, who have their teeth, have reason to be grateful for this aspect of colonisation, which lifted them out of a veritable dental disaster with all its pain and inconvenience.

The poor state of their teeth was matched by the poor state of their general health. In the words of the early New Zealand historian, Elsdon Best, who was able to observe the early Maoris, “Native knowledge of medicine may be described as non-existent in former times. No attempt was made to study it because it was believed that sickness and disease were caused by atua (evil spirits).”

One of the worst failings, based on superstition and enforced by the wretched tohungas, was to abandon the sick and the dying into some outhouse away from the huts, as it was believed that to die in a normal hut would thereby make that hut tapu (forbidden). “So, in order to save the house for future use, when death was expected the sick man would be taken to an open shed,” wrote Rev. James Buller in his book, Forty Years in New Zealand. (P. 219) And the Church of England missionary, Rev. William Williams in his book, Christianity Among the New Zealanders, “The friends of the dying person prevented every kind of food from being given to them, water only being allowed. Thus the poor sufferer was literally starved to death” (P. 184) To-day, thanks to colonisation, their descendants die in comfortable hospitals and similar places.

It was the early Protestant missionaries who first introduced the natives to health care and Western medicine but it was an uphill struggle against the power of the tohungas who didn’t want to lose their influence. In the 1840s a small number of hospitals were set up by the colonial authorities specifically for Maoris to be treated with Western medicine. Improvement in health came first to those Maoris who had the greatest contact with Europeans, and it spread steadily throughout the nineteenth century.

Many of the natives suffered from sore eyes. They had difficulty opening them until the missionary, Thomas Kendall, started curing them by using goulard. It was believed that the prevalence of sore eyes was caused by their sleeping so often in the open air, under sometimes heavy dews and with their heads uncovered. Over the generations since colonisation many Maoris have been able to extend their optical powers by wearing European invented glasses, including the current co-leader of the Maori Party, Rawiri Waititi, who, despite ranting against colonisation and its effects at every turn, wears glasses on his own ink-stained face, thus making himself an object of both ridicule and hypocrisy.

With the introduction of Western medicine and dental care the average life expectancy of Maoris rose from 20 to 25 years (1840) to 77.1 years for women and 73.4 years for men in 2019. As they say in law, res ipsa loquitur (the thing speaks for itself).

Maoris have benefited enormously from the blessings of colonisation and are now living almost four times as long as when they led such unhealthy lives before European settlement. The hospitals and doctors and dentists that they have benefited from have been the fruits of Western civilisation with its superior knowledge and science. The hospitals and health care have been paid for mainly by European New Zealanders for no group contributes less to taxation on a per capita basis than Maoris. Similarly no group is more of a burden on the taxpayer than these same people. Their latest demand for “resourcing” so that unqualified members of tribes can be paid for giving dental care and treatment is yet another trick that they are trying to play on the rest of us. That Radio New Zealand were too dumb to work this out tells us all we need to know about its ignorance and bias.
