Facts. But, then again, victimhood has always served women well throughout history due to their 'marginalized' hurt feelings. Not to say that feelings don't matter. But the truth is, facts dictate feelings, and feelings do not dictate facts. Thankfully, we are approaching a time wherein truth and common sense prevails over politicized hurt feelings. This is why men built society, and it is run by men with a backbone, and will prosper by men with backbones and integrity. I'm not for politics, I'm for common sense. Maori are quick to cry racism when it benefits them, but to receive something that you would not receive if you were not Maori (like every other nationality within New Zealand) is in fact, in itself, racist.

You are correct . It’s becoming a sad state of affairs in this country . As a New Zealander of European decent at school decades ago we never saw colour . We had Maori friends and the Māoris saw us as friends . We were at each others houses after school , we played sport together , we hung out on weekends together . The parents of Maori children worked in the same factory as my parents , earnt the same wage and everyone in the town never saw Maori as inferior . We were and still are all human beings just trying to pass through life as best we all can . These elite Maori will never pass any fortune gained from government down to the Maori people at grass roots .
I agree, that was my experience growing up as well. I use to visit Maori homes with friends and relatives, Pacific Islanders homes as well, great mates and lovely parents.
Absolutely it’s theatre. And of course the race card is played, and the DEI ideology of victimhood raises its ugly head. Debby talks about “our people” - so they think in lockstep? She resorts to identity politics…
@@hatupaoraolsen-mcgarvey2700 that's what Debbie is doing. Shane has the reo and so do all his tamariki and mokopuna. He can say what he said because he is also Maori. I'm Maori too, and I rep he whakaputanga hard, the real history of my tupuna. She does not speak for all of us. My tupuna wern't victims, yet under her and Rawiri's leadership, that's where we are headed. My tupuna were travelling the world before 1810, we make it seem like our relationship with the crown started in 1840. I know my history. I am not ignorant. It is her. It is you.
At one point she called him "just an Uncle"... this woman is mostly of Dalmatian blood with very little Maori in her bloodline yet she decks herself out and mokos her face and claims she is more Maori than the rest and must be listened to.... she is disrespectful to Maori in the way she acts and the game of theatre she plays and the constant calling Maori victims when the vast majority of us do not think of ourselves in this way... she is an embarrassment to all Maori
Guns were used to forcibly take land from Màori, so I'd say if they want to use the symbolism they can. Plus gun symbols are no more Irish than any other culture.

Everyone is struggling, what about all the other cultures in New Zealand, you don't see them constantly whining, protesting, causing disruption and screaming Racism at every turn. They need to get over themselves.
A former neighbour who was a Maori from the wrong side of the railroad tracks, said there are some Maori who walk forwards while looking backward. There are a select few who have a mindset of victimhood and it affects their state of mind to the extent they'll never be happy, refusing to acknowledge that in the past 150 od years, their lifestyles have improved tenfold. To summarise, there are Maori who are manic depressive no matter how much the government gives them for free...

I genuinely don't think Shane is misogynist simply because he disagrees with a woman. I don't know the man personally, and so can't say for sure if he is misogynist or not. All I can say is, judging from what he said here, his argument isn't built up on misogynist ideas.
You are right, whether or not there is a male OR female he is arguing against, he would have said the same words. So misogyny is a word not suited as a fair response. However, her response to call misogyny is a fair trade for his attitude toward Maori representation in Government. And as he crosses her boundary of disrespect, so too does she trade in kind. Overall though, I do believe she could have held back on the use of the word misogyny, and just maintained her dinosaur remark. That way, she'd have only made enemies with like-minded dinosaurs. And now she's just potentially turned off all men from supporting the cause that she's backing.
@@jame2433and it should have been patronizing. Because he was speaking to her crying victim over maoridom not gender issues, and as a well versed maori himself, he has that right. Shane Jones is a proud maori. He speaks the reo, his kids speak the reo, his grandkids all speak the reo. His knowledge of the history of te tai tokerau is so deep, id argue he knew more about his tupuna and their deeds then she does of her tupuna and their deeds. Some of us maori dont buy this victim crap, and hes clearly one of them. Doesnt mean hes a misogynist.
@@rapscity2k442 I see what you’re saying but I’m unsure how you can look at what this govt is doing and think they want better outcomes for Māori. I also don’t think they are being victims, I just see people standing up against policy that doesn’t help improve outcomes for Māori. Māori are over represented in many areas and I believe we should continue to work towards improving that. That’s what I see them trying to advocate for I also don’t think she’s calling him a misogynist based on this single interaction.

Shane Jones has really impressed me. An absolute gem of an intelligent man. Glad I gave New Zealand First my vote. Shame another blatantly bias performance, from another leftie Politically Correct TVNZ presenter.
Totally agree... something has to be done if we are ever to get any true journalism... at the moment we get opinionism by someone masquerading as a journalist!
normalising te reo Māori is NOT tokenism. I'm a speaker of te reo Māori and didn't want the name Oranga Tamariki on an agency that rip our babies from their whakapapa! I didn't know what Waka Kotahi was... but I learnt it, like everyone else. We had normalised it... until now :(
I am not a te reo speaker, I love the Māori language. I felt it was tokenism of the highest order. To me Māori is a sacred language and using it to identify Government departments smacks of hypocrisy to me, especially when those government departments are failing Māori so badly. Te Whatu Ora and Oranga Tamariki in particular.
Shane Jones is fluent in the reo. All of his kids are fluent in the reo. All of his grandkids are fluent in the reo. And not the machine gun paced standard reo you get from te wananga o aotearoa. He has hearty te tai tokerau reo. If he calls it token to place a maori name on a crown agency, then he has the right. Maori party and the sheep make it seem like they are trying to rename my iwi and hapu to pakeha names. That would be crossing a line. These are crown agencies. Let them rename them in their own reo. Who cares! We talk a out tino rangatiratanga, but we cry when the crown wants to rename their own agency. LET THEM. Then get to work to do better for your own papakainga.

I agree with the overall sentiment of what you've typed. However, each individual person gets to decide who they are. Māori is a culture, language, and heritage. I have Irish heritage. I'm not Irish and never will be. I've never been to Ireland, I don't speak their language, and I don't participate in their culture. It is unfair to claim I am Irish. How disrespectful to Irish people who live and breathe their culture. "Culture includes the many aspects of a community's life that are taught, learned, and practiced on a day-to-day basis. Heritage refers to one's family background or historical lineage, which may or may not be reflected in the culture that one is a part of."
Honouring the Treaty will benefit every culture and race in Aotearoa NZ. Would you rather see Maori doing well and being successful or in prison, impoverished or violent? You only need to look around the world to see the same pattern of the effects of colonisation upon indigenous people like Ireland... e.g. the IRA. Honouring the Treaty is the solution for everyone.

The majority of NZ's voted that they wanted a change and not the way Labour was taking us, so what she is saying she doesn't agree with the outcome, so she doesn't agree with the democratic voting, demonstrations wouldn't happen without the democracy way, I am so tired of her mentioning the colonialism way, this is woke language and it is crap, that's why NZ's pushed back against this way of thinking and teaching. This country is not racist as yet, but the way Maoridom was taking us, it was certainly divisive, to have your own health system would have been the makings of Apartheid and it would have divided the country even more. Maori are already very wealthy, through the Treaty of Waitangi, and it should be ended so that NZ can plan for all NZ's and get the overseas debt down and push for all NZ's, otherwise you will have more NZ's leaving the country and going to Australia.

Māori throwing their toys out of the cot Te Putu, because we now have a mature intelligent realistic government who represents the majority, not minority radical left wing woke activists. If you want to talk about wealthy elites who don’t give two stuffs about their own people, just take a look at the so called Māori upper 1% higher ups, who are given hundreds of millions of dollars over the decades to help everyday Māori who have seen zero of that money. And by the way, it’s not “ racist to rescue Māori kids from abusive Māori families who injure, maim, and kill their children.
There's no future in victimhood, I'm pakeha and have had some really hard times, we just got to keep going no matter what. Kia kaha bro, we can all move forward together if we want to.
I’m a GenX Maori who has a pakeha and Maori parent. If you learn our history and colonisation of indigenous peoples your eyes and mind will be open to understanding why we are asserting ourselves to this govt. A govt who prefer we are not seen or heard. This govt is anti Maori and they twist words and our agenda to be negative. I remember my mumma who didn’t learn her language as her parents stopped speaking it to her to protect her from being hit from the teacher if she spoke te reo. My mumma lost a part of her that affected her loving herself. That was a time of conditioning. We no longer accept the narrative these racist try to spin.
Holding everybody else to ransom Can see the gravy train disapearing in the tunnel Everybodys equal not Everybodys equal and but some are more equal than others.

Coincidence and they're all lazy, useless? I think not.....
With respect how about giving govt time to actually do what they’ve said and see what the outcome is. Māori are capable of not smoking. Debbie needs to strengthen her people, not say they are victims. Interestingly we caucasians and other ethnicities are all having to wait and see. After 6 years of having 20% ? of the population ram their views down our throats this is the outcome and 80% have spoken. How about taking personal responsibility and also talking to the TOW partners so we all pull together in the same direction. Eg. Māori name first on signs means in the time it takes me to understand the Māori word I’ve driven past and missed the English name. Transitioning is not just chucking people in at the deep end. You slow your own cause by pushing too hard too fast. Smoking is reducing at the moment so education and support for those who want to stop seems to be working well.
Interesting, so you say too fast when the Maori language had a complete full stop less than 100yrs ago and our parents and grandparents were beaten for speaking it but you are up in arms if we try to have both Te Reo and your language? We aren't stopping your language and culture but you are definately belittling ours.
@2wahineandadog it was never stopped, if it was it wouldn't exist. My grandfather was beaten for speaking Gaelic, yet he didn't let that stop him speaking it at home.
From the mouths of the old Māori people… We wanted our children taught English in schools to give them more opportunities in the changing circumstances of NZ. Māori was still spoken in the community and homes unless individual parents stopped it. Now the practice of physical punishment for disobedience was culturally accepted in those days and times. Retrospectively we no longer accept that consequence for disobedience. Children who chose to comply with the educational edicts did fine. Some became bilingual, some only spoke English because parents decided to stop speaking Māori at home to help improve the children’s English. Maybe a few stopped going to school and in a progressing world remained mono lingual. I’m 70 and taught for maybe 40 years. I understand if families and communities went down the English only route a Taonga was nearly lost. I don’t speak Gaelic for the same reasons. I ❤ the fight back for Te Reo. It always works through individuals and love. I’m more attracted to that than militant demands. Kia Kaha.
Shane Jones is 100% correct, the biggest threat to Maori us Maori. Maori expect privelliged rights when this is a multicultural democratic country. Equal rights for all.

Everyone is struggling, what about all the other cultures in New Zealand, you don't see them constantly whining, protesting, causing disruption and screaming Racism at every turn. They need to get over themselves.
A former neighbour who was a Maori from the wrong side of the railroad tracks, said there are some Maori who walk forwards while looking backward. There are a select few who have a mindset of victimhood and it affects their state of mind to the extent they'll never be happy, refusing to acknowledge that in the past 150 od years, their lifestyles have improved tenfold. To summarise, there are Maori who are manic depressive no matter how much the government gives them for free...

Thank you for not turning off the comments and well done Shane👍👏👏👏👏
I genuinely don't think Shane is misogynist simply because he disagrees with a woman. I don't know the man personally, and so can't say for sure if he is misogynist or not. All I can say is, judging from what he said here, his argument isn't built up on misogynist ideas.
The patronising way he calls out her “victimhood” is why she called him misogynistic.
You are right, whether or not there is a male OR female he is arguing against, he would have said the same words. So misogyny is a word not suited as a fair response. However, her response to call misogyny is a fair trade for his attitude toward Maori representation in Government. And as he crosses her boundary of disrespect, so too does she trade in kind. Overall though, I do believe she could have held back on the use of the word misogyny, and just maintained her dinosaur remark. That way, she'd have only made enemies with like-minded dinosaurs. And now she's just potentially turned off all men from supporting the cause that she's backing.
@@jame2433and it should have been patronizing. Because he was speaking to her crying victim over maoridom not gender issues, and as a well versed maori himself, he has that right. Shane Jones is a proud maori. He speaks the reo, his kids speak the reo, his grandkids all speak the reo. His knowledge of the history of te tai tokerau is so deep, id argue he knew more about his tupuna and their deeds then she does of her tupuna and their deeds.
Some of us maori dont buy this victim crap, and hes clearly one of them. Doesnt mean hes a misogynist.
Shane is muzzled by his party and won't rock the boat
@@rapscity2k442 I see what you’re saying but I’m unsure how you can look at what this govt is doing and think they want better outcomes for Māori.
I also don’t think they are being victims, I just see people standing up against policy that doesn’t help improve outcomes for Māori. Māori are over represented in many areas and I believe we should continue to work towards improving that. That’s what I see them trying to advocate for
I also don’t think she’s calling him a misogynist based on this single interaction.
Why does she keep rolling her eyes like that? Very immature behaviour on Debbie's part.

While I don't like seeing Maori vs Maori on National TV. I agree with Shane Jones. Name changes were tokenism.
normalising te reo Māori is NOT tokenism. I'm a speaker of te reo Māori and didn't want the name Oranga Tamariki on an agency that rip our babies from their whakapapa! I didn't know what Waka Kotahi was... but I learnt it, like everyone else. We had normalised it... until now :(
Use of Maori language in govt departments was legislated for first under Key and Act lol
I am not a te reo speaker, I love the Māori language. I felt it was tokenism of the highest order. To me Māori is a sacred language and using it to identify Government departments smacks of hypocrisy to me, especially when those government departments are failing Māori so badly. Te Whatu Ora and Oranga Tamariki in particular.
@@leelabella7357 Exactly!!
Shane Jones is fluent in the reo. All of his kids are fluent in the reo. All of his grandkids are fluent in the reo. And not the machine gun paced standard reo you get from te wananga o aotearoa. He has hearty te tai tokerau reo.
If he calls it token to place a maori name on a crown agency, then he has the right.

I agree with the overall sentiment of what you've typed. However, each individual person gets to decide who they are. Māori is a culture, language, and heritage. I have Irish heritage. I'm not Irish and never will be. I've never been to Ireland, I don't speak their language, and I don't participate in their culture. It is unfair to claim I am Irish. How disrespectful to Irish people who live and breathe their culture.
"Culture includes the many aspects of a community's life that are taught, learned, and practiced on a day-to-day basis. Heritage refers to one's family background or historical lineage, which may or may not be reflected in the culture that one is a part of."
Honouring the Treaty will benefit every culture and race in Aotearoa NZ. Would you rather see Maori doing well and being successful or in prison, impoverished or violent? You only need to look around the world to see the same pattern of the effects of colonisation upon indigenous people like Ireland... e.g. the IRA. Honouring the Treaty is the solution for everyone.

The majority of NZ's voted that they wanted a change and not the way Labour was taking us, so what she is saying she doesn't agree with the outcome, so she doesn't agree with the democratic voting, demonstrations wouldn't happen without the democracy way, I am so tired of her mentioning the colonialism way, this is woke language and it is crap, that's why NZ's pushed back against this way of thinking and teaching. This country is not racist as yet, but the way Maoridom was taking us, it was certainly divisive, to have your own health system would have been the makings of Apartheid and it would have divided the country even more. Maori are already very wealthy, through the Treaty of Waitangi, and it should be ended so that NZ can plan for all NZ's and get the overseas debt down and push for all NZ's, otherwise you will have more NZ's leaving the country and going to Australia.

Her body language tells us everything.
Way too go Shane, see when she starts to lose the argument she blames him for picking on woman lol, what a joke.
👍
One rule for all New Zealanders.
Never forget the damage labour did against Kiwis?! 🤨
Māori throwing their toys out of the cot Te Putu, because we now have a mature intelligent realistic government who represents the majority, not minority radical left wing woke activists.
If you want to talk about wealthy elites who don’t give two stuffs about their own people, just take a look at the so called Māori upper 1% higher ups, who are given hundreds of millions of dollars over the decades to help everyday Māori who have seen zero of that money.
And by the way, it’s not “ racist to rescue Māori kids from abusive Māori families who injure, maim, and kill their children.
Well put.
Yup. Spot on. The reason they are so upset is they see their money tree drying up.
"radical left wing woke" - hahaha more US culture war nonsense lol. You've gone and made a low effort buzz word salad
@@Chrizzy60 Where this money tree again?
Thumbs up 👍
One person one vote, and the people have chosen.
The Maori Party leader tried to turn this into a woman bashing argument. Shane is right. It's victimhood.
I would like to listen to interviews with impartial interviewers. It seems most in NZ media show a significant bias these last few years
It sure does and that bias come from the left labour government that was voted Out doesn’t that tell those journos anything?? apparently not
As a Māori I do not feel disadvantaged at all by this new government. I am not a victim and refuse to play the victim card
There's no future in victimhood, I'm pakeha and have had some really hard times, we just got to keep going no matter what.
Kia kaha bro, we can all move forward together if we want to.
There’s money in play ing the victim Cuzzy that’s why she’s jumping up and down
@@sox7784 she’s a Karen
I’m a GenX Maori who has a pakeha and Maori parent. If you learn our history and colonisation of indigenous peoples your eyes and mind will be open to understanding why we are asserting ourselves to this govt. A govt who prefer we are not seen or heard. This govt is anti Maori and they twist words and our agenda to be negative. I remember my mumma who didn’t learn her language as her parents stopped speaking it to her to protect her from being hit from the teacher if she spoke te reo. My mumma lost a part of her that affected her loving herself. That was a time of conditioning. We no longer accept the narrative these racist try to spin.
@@Stormlight-1 alright keep your hair on!
Holding everybody else to ransom
Can see the gravy train disapearing in the tunnel
Everybodys equal not
Everybodys equal and but some are more equal than others.
The unequal tend to be indigenous peoples worldwide, colonised by European nations, especially Great Britian..Australia, USA, Canada, NZ...why is it always the idigenous peoples, with the highest unemployment, and worst crime, health and education stats ? Coincidence and they're all lazy, useless? I think not.....
Shane Jones for the win
She proved him right by carrying on as a victim.!
With respect how about giving govt time to actually do what they’ve said and see what the outcome is. Māori are capable of not smoking. Debbie needs to strengthen her people, not say they are victims. Interestingly we caucasians and other ethnicities are all having to wait and see. After 6 years of having 20% ? of the population ram their views down our throats this is the outcome and 80% have spoken. How about taking personal responsibility and also talking to the TOW partners so we all pull together in the same direction. Eg. Māori name first on signs means in the time it takes me to understand the Māori word I’ve driven past and missed the English name. Transitioning is not just chucking people in at the deep end. You slow your own cause by pushing too hard too fast. Smoking is reducing at the moment so education and support for those who want to stop seems to be working well.
Interesting, so you say too fast when the Maori language had a complete full stop less than 100yrs ago and our parents and grandparents were beaten for speaking it but you are up in arms if we try to have both Te Reo and your language? We aren't stopping your language and culture but you are definately belittling ours.
@2wahineandadog it was never stopped, if it was it wouldn't exist.
My grandfather was beaten for speaking Gaelic, yet he didn't let that stop him speaking it at home.
From the mouths of the old Māori people… We wanted our children taught English in schools to give them more opportunities in the changing circumstances of NZ. Māori was still spoken in the community and homes unless individual parents stopped it. Now the practice of physical punishment for disobedience was culturally accepted in those days and times. Retrospectively we no longer accept that consequence for disobedience. Children who chose to comply with the educational edicts did fine. Some became bilingual, some only spoke English because parents decided to stop speaking Māori at home to help improve the children’s English. Maybe a few stopped going to school and in a progressing world remained mono lingual. I’m 70 and taught for maybe 40 years. I understand if families and communities went down the English only route a Taonga was nearly lost. I don’t speak Gaelic for the same reasons. I ❤ the fight back for Te Reo. It always works through individuals and love. I’m more attracted to that than militant demands. Kia Kaha.
@2wahineandadog when words such as party are just spelt wrong to make it sound like English, that's not an official language!
Not sure about your maths they sport 80%
Victim mentality is not a way forward
It is all that some of them understand.
Shane Jones got what he deserved. He is condescending and is famous for it in Māoridom. Good to see he finally got called for it.
Well done Shane Jones!
Well done for being deviant
@@cliffsharp7922 get a grip Cliff. This woman got owned plain and simple.
@cliffsharp7922 guilty White man lol.
Shane Jones is 100% correct, the biggest threat to Maori us Maori. Maori expect privelliged rights when this is a multicultural democratic country. Equal rights for all.
He is spot on
That is exactly what we want but what's written on paper and reality aren't the same thing.
How can Debbie with 3% of the party vote claim to Maori? The vast majority of Maori chose to vote for other parties.
Notice how the host instantly argues when shane jones speaks but lets the one sharing her views speak
She’s updating her CV
Yea i work with Maori am married to a Maori and didn't hear a thing about this protest. To not be in poverty you have to work hard and try to save and be sensible. Its not easy but what is?
Exactly whatever happened to working hard and taking personal responsibility...that's what is missing these days.
Shane is too intelligent for the muppets.
Are you freakin serious...!
@@DrRatweasel Might say more about you Weasel than Gary's comment.
@@DrRatweasel he was calm and level headed and honestly called her out which was brilliant.
Breakfast and TVNZ in general, can you maybe not refer to the Sovereign of this nation (the one who gives the Treaty validity btw) as an "old dinosaur". Having King Charles as our figurehead greatly benefits our nation and we should show our appreciation by giving him a little more respect.
How old is the Maori king? Do you think the media would ever dare call him an old "dinosaur"?
@@AmonAnon-vw3hrif they did, they'd be trouble, double standards are amazing aren't they
People respect him but also realize that the royal family is well out of touch and have been for a very long time.
@@DaHandDatFeeds Out of touch for what exactly? Their entire job is to be figureheads and do philanthropy. If the Royals still actually governed anything I'd say it matters but given the role is ceremonial I don't really see why it matters.
@@dragonrings14 Well, we could mention something trivial like Charles' reliance on pens in the modern age to the point of rage, or, more broadly, that the family, at best, are only Human but yet have not had to endure the hardships of "commoners". Most people can't relate. Also "I don't see why this matters" shows you're out of touch considering the NZ taxpayers have to foot millions for these "philanthropists" to visit. Could you please explain what use they are to NZ'ers in this day and age?
Well done Shane Jones, handled very well and talking sense.
Debbie pulls some funny faces.
I think that's her natural state.
no, that's the moko
The bar code accentuates it.
And blinks alot
@@The1234joe4321 Hey, a WS with an original thought. Go figure
Its a debate how is that bullying cmon debbie. Debbie When you losing a dont cry racist or bullying
I'm thinking a Pacifier (dummy) might help???
She can't debate. She's learnt the oppression talking points and if she can't use those all she has are personal attacks.
It's a pitty that Shane didn't address the Maori mandate comments from Debbie. I think what she doesnt't realize is what people voted is for no specific mandates for races nor cultures but one mandate for everyone regardless of skin colour or faith
Correct that’s what I voted for as did everyone else and the sooner policy changes are implemented the better , let the Kapa Haka party jump up and down they don’t have any power any more
ka peke ka peke all it's worth partie Maori The Ppl voted Labor ruined our Country We have 3 Very Strong Male Leadership despite all media blah These men are giving it their All Kia kaha Chris Luxton Winston Peters David Seymore ❤❤❤
I voted NZ First in line with their and ACT's party policy on co-governance and fully expect this to be enforced.
One nation! End of story! Can't keep going on and on about 200 years ago. Move forward!
It wouldn't matter how much money you throw at Maori issues there would still be problems. Baby Ru and sadly the historic list goes on and on.
Your assuming that all "Maori issues" are about or require money - it costs nothing to treat a fellow countrymen as an equal and yet you still won't do.
@@2wahineandadogWhy did the government give food vouchers to Maori to encourage them to get vaccinated and fill out census papers? No one else was given that offer. Maori must stand on their own 2 feet.
Refer to, DrMN Paewai and David Hone Rankin, Te Matarahurahu hapu Ngapuhi. They say it all.
What a load of codswallop - I saw on the news same as you that some Vax centres were offering things and I agree some of those were Maori centres - however in Akl the PI centres were doing the same. I went to a govt Vax centre for my first one which was horrible and impersonal and then to my local doctors set up for the rest - I wasn't lucky enough to win the daily prize etc but I did someone get a microwave - he was Asian but it never occurred to me I was supposed to wrestle him to the floor for stealing a purely Maori prize....My daughter did get lollies after her jab but she's a child, pretty sure the white girl in the car behind us got the same lollies, same amount there weren't Maori lollies and white lollies@@chriskiwi2601
Well done Shane Jones. Interesting that, unable to play the race card in an argument, the agist, misogynist line is trotted out instead.
Haha you are 100 % correct here , hopefully this nonsense won’t have any legs any more
@@paulleighton7078 Absolutely appalling and biased journalism on display as well; Shane Jones did well to keep his cool in the face of a truly unprofessional interview. Please find some decent journalists and less of these Paddy Gower type egotistical ‘show ponies’.
Swear to the king to be in parliament or otherwise head home.
This debate is exactly what we need to move forward as a country. I am happy that these two are both here to talk not shout!
Also anyone who has any comment on my comment I would love to enter a discussion be it combative or collaborative on a zoom call which we can then upload to our respective social media accounts. New Zealand Aotearoa is a great country!
Definitely important to keep talking, it’s when you we stop talking that’s when we have something to worry about.
Is this even a relevant conversation? Seem to me there are bigger far more important issues. Than a small group of losers who only accept a government they voted for?
hahaha these two are like a married couple. Keep it up Shane, call it what it is
Shows how truthful she is by the size of the tiki.
Wow comments open, great let the people be heard. Agree completely with Shane.
I'm surprised too.
The comments are NEVER open
Stop rolling eyes please
Look, I'm a Pakeha man. I went through the political quiz and discovered that I agreed more with Te Pati Maori than anybody else in Parliament. Though I am not going to change my political positions on the economy because of this one interview, I definitely side with Shane Jones more than Debbie here! Especially when she interprets ANY challenge or skepticism of what she says as blatant, obvious sexism! Just because your opponent happens to be a male doesn't mean you can seriously just play the victim card and dismiss anything he says to you as misogyny!
She can’t Debate
Ka pai Shane Jones !! 💪
The translation doesn’t makes sense ,
