  • For Nanaia Mahuta, the MP with the longest unbroken parliamentary tenure, it is over - a fact she accepts with grace and humour. Nanaia shares her reflections on the challenges and gains she faced in her 27 years - and how she handled both. Moana Maniapoto with this interview.

    Credit where credit is due.
    The fact that she was beaten by a young wahine just out of her teens is a strong message by the voters that it is time for a new generation of leaders.
    The times are changing and we need unity for all Kiwis and Iwis.

    Ive not been a fan of the Maori Caucus, being Maori myself, but this was the best interview ive watched with Mrs Mahuta. The other thing is that she looks so well, the best ive ever seen her. Well done Mrs Mahuta, thankyou for your service and all the best with your future.

      Absolute rubbish. Individual Maori didn't "own" anything. Some areas of land were held tribally until the neighbouring tribe came and kicked them out. Instances were tribal land was taken by the Crown have been adequately compensated for. And now Maori own businesses and commercial assets, pay no taxes on those assets, and still have their hand out. The "fleecing" is the other way around now champ. @@stephenlennon7369

      @@johnrualmond2176I agree - it has to be clarified what it means. I used to be Anglican growing up, and that church had a co-governance model (Pakeha, Maori, and Pasifika) and it worked very well. Obviously that is a small organisation compared to a nation, but I saw it could be done, and no one lost anything. I just think partly what went wrong was a lack of definition and clarity, and whenever that happens, people not only wonder why no definitions are forthcoming, but get fearful and opposed to it. We saw that this last weekend in Australia, when the PM kept refusing to define what the referendum meant. Not many want to vote for something that is not clarified. That doesn’t mean they are racist - most people are not racist. But people like to know what is what. That gives confidence and a sense of being in something together.

      @@chrisblockley5783I am a huge supporter of democracy. But I do see how interest groups, sometimes race-based, can serve a purpose. For example in education the kohanga reo, kura, and wananga have helped reinvigorate the Maori language and culture. Or Catholic schools help Catholic people preserve their religious beliefs. Or children attending Japanese classes on Saturday mornings to keep up with their language. This translates broader to sometimes, due to cultural norms, some groups are best set to provide not just education, but health or training or rehabilitation services, etc.. A bit like how Act brought in charter schools. I can see this type of devolution can work, and be more tailored. So I could see how iwi-based solutions may work better for some things. However, I think there are limitations to how far this can go if the aim is to have cohesion, stability, and a positive sense of unity. Either way, more conversations need to be had, because this is where we are now as a nation. Ignoring it will not help.
