Ka nui te mihi rawa ki a koe Julian, tino tika, pono, koi ou kōrero. Tino koretake rawa atu a Tama. Auē. Tama Potaka would have to rate as the worst Minister of Māori affairs ever to hold that postition. It's clear Māori hold a lower level of priority than his love of the party, and the coalition. He's a huge disappointment - and only gets worse as this coalition continues. Kei hea tona taha Māori, ngākau Māori, wairua Māori. Koretake
Luxton has taught his ministers very very very good . Talk a lot of crap but under no circumstances should you answer the questions you have been asked of
How come you can say the knowledge of the bill is above your pay grade. If you're representing Maori it should be an important matter' to be informed about. Its sad and concerning that we have you representing Maori needs Tama Potaka.
When all is said and done and this Government is gone, only then will Tama realise he would have lost the trust and confidence of Māori, forever. Ake, ake, ake.
I live in Hamilton and the people here say the tax cuts don't fund one role of ass paper. You can't make a cup of tea without the water Tama Kupapa, one must know the source of water. If we are in a housing crises why are you boosting immigration?
He can't answer the question because the truth is Maori have never ceded their sovereignty. Colonized tokenistic mowri. He don't care about Maori he cares more about supporting his white boss. He is a tokenistic mowri gaining for himself. If he was truly for Maori he would be speaking up or he would have spoken up earlier regarding the Tiriti principles bill. He would have left his place with national and joined with the late Maori King. He teka rawa atu ia!
Tama is full of kakaz ! Money changes people for real ! Hes asking you tama potaka not the party views !!! Tama is all about money hence why he puts it back on his coalition ! Needs a hiding
I find that after a couple of mins of watching any interviews from anyone from this government, I end up leaving and watching something else. I am sick and tired of the BS that come out of their mouths. It's disheartening to see Maori people like tama disadvantaging Maori. I have no respect for him. It's too much to ask these days for leaders to have a backbone. We'll done tama for memorizing the script written by a national AI
Can’t answer a straight question …Julian you did what you could do with a defence bot …all those words and no direct response …hurricane with no humility …shameful Tama
Kei whea mai Julian. Great interview and you never gave up on the difficult questions. I'm disappointed to see Tama take this hard position and use political tactics to avoid answering the hard questions. It's not that hard decisions have been made to fund Math's, but it's the devisive approach to pit Te Reo Māori against Math's. Dick move! Plus, do we really need to have a discussion on sovereignty? We already know we didn't. Irikati.
Eh bei, maybe not on tv brother. Get together with him and the boys from your year and have a korero. Pretty sure youll hear some honest truths from that session and better understanding around the 'why'. No cameras. Whakatangata Kia Kaha boys.
A borrower being the minority in a contractual agreement with the bank has no less legal rights than the banks. a contract is a binding agreement , the size of each party is irrelevant in the context of that legal agreement. FYI pakeha were the minority as the time of te Tiriti.
@@ame6719 Kia ora, That shows how much faith Maori had in the agreement that was reached and the treaty that was forged. They understood treaty, they already had their own. However, the establishment of government, changed things. Maori were relegated to a lower Class to be taken advantage of, punished to learn english, when the early settlers broke their necks to learn Te Reo when they arrived. The early english came here to escape their own Class system, only to bring it here. How things changed. Te Tiriti O Waitangi is not related to banks. Its not about money. Nga mihi

How does the government assume the mantel of crown....and therefore have sovereignty when they come a country of peasants. Ffaarrk sake Tama......answer a question you kupapa!!!
Ka tika tau e Julian i te mea he pai te $3 billion tax ki ngā Landlords. Hoi nō he $20 tax cut per week mo te iwi pohara. Hei aha tau Tama, he kaupapa rawa koe a Tama, e whakaae ana koe ki te Treaty, kāhore e whakaae ana koe ki te Tiriti. Fuck wit
The whakaputanga was a document stating we own our independence and the tiriti is a document to only ment to have control over the British subjects who were prisoners that grew in population after colonial settlement happened Maori did not get their own independence and have been forced under dictatorship 🤌🤌
Kei a koe te mana motuhake kia whakamana ai tō ake reo me tō ahurea..but the government needs to improve exactly what Tama has said..heoi, auê Tama..kei wiwi wawa koe me whakautu i te pātai... even Shane Jones can answer this... i don't see a issue taking money away from reo..but i do think we need more support for mental health and tamariki with disabilities within kura..and a little more pūtea for Kōhanga Reo... hei aha whakaata Māori...
He is very careful, in answering these questions, and Maori expect, answers to hear that Maori are taken care of, he is not in a position to confirm this , as a party member he cant. I do say his response is within party lines. as a Maori do I accept this,Kao but at least he made his position known. I know he was not elected into a Maori seat, so It is obvious that he believes in a National Government, so don't expect he will address Maori issues adequately. At least he doesn't say things that Maori are not indigenous.
Tama Potaka you want a working young generation, they left to work in Australia living a great life, 30% more in wages, holidays in bali, family outings, sports. Work is fantastic lifestyle. You talk down labours maori development in the arts, matatini. About bloody time, nz ballet and symphony orchestras phenomenal amount of funding. Korero nga mea tika?, mo tatau😢
Another member of the coalition government that doesn’t answer questions. Seems to be a common theme with this government. He has been coached to say nothing and clearly doesn’t care how this government is hurting Māori.
Sit up and listen, kiwis voted on 14th october 2023 for change, this is the change, a coalition change to align with all New Zealanders which is what is happening now.
Great job Tama…Keep up the good work so far. this guys just a bully. If people want to blame someone for this mess…Look no further than Cindy and Grant Robinson
Mr Willox! Mr Potaka was elected by his electorate,not all maori.He was not elected by maori to keep them on the gravy train, as Mr Wilcox expects. Come on David Seymour to stop this grifting!
You are right that Potaka got more votes than the others. But what the hell is he doing accepting the role of 1. Minister of Maori Affairs and 2. For Conservation when he doesn't care about either. In fact he is happy for both to be smashed over by his government. I feel sick just seeing and listening to such a traitor. I care about Maori People far more than he does!!! About te reo, te Tiriti the disadvantaged, the disabled, renters, low paid workers, the lives of children going in and out of school, smokers who generally want to quit smoking, Gang members Police, Teachers, Young people needing guidanc& support and tupuna. Maori ancestors did NOT cede sovereignty AND HE KNOWS THAT. He doesn't have the guts to say so. Why? Because he is crawling up Luxon. I am in Hamilton West. Luxon has a massive support network to make him popular among the young voters. People are falling it. For God's' sake!!!! Get out and vote next time!!! But not for snakes who have put this country back 50 years in only a few months. NZ previously had a great reputation in the world. This Government uis a complete embarrassment. Julian- I feel the frustration. Might as well talk to a brick wall, Brother!
Yes, his whakapapa is not in question but his whaakaro is. Tama is sitting on the fence so he says he's for Maori but delivers his party policy which is the opposite.
Unbelievable. You don't think government policies are negatively affecting Maori? Why don't you think this Government is negatively affecting Maori. Why do you think Potaka is ok? affecting Maori?
Maori don't want to talk about the 100 billion we have to pay back, oh no, Maori want to talk about what they want, good on Minister Potaka. God forbid if he were to house people in emergency housing.
What 100 billion, and if it was that much why borrow more to give back to the landlords and tax cuts eaten up by the cost of living? Essentially we've received nothing. It's pathetic.
E Tama Potaka, koeretaki ki a koe. Bro you've been colonised to long & you need to get back to grass roots & get Indeginised. When you say your the Minister of Maori Affiars & relations, mea te mea, you speak a totally different language not incoherence with what the Maori people are saying for you to do & again its like talking to someone who can be so ignorant & doesn't listen avoiding questions, not answering them, its just a plain joke. However you speak more for your coalition partners National, Act & NZ First. kissing up to them to keep them satisfied.

Tautoko
Julian nailed it.
Luxton has taught his ministers very very very good . Talk a lot of crap but under no circumstances should you answer the questions you have been asked of
Tama Potaka is 100% with this coalition government. He avoiding Maori issues and is not to be trusted..A other one bites the dust.
don't be fooled e hoa mā. this guy is a kūpapa. thank you Julian for holding him to account.
How come you can say the knowledge of the bill is above your pay grade. If you're representing Maori it should be an important matter' to be informed about. Its sad and concerning that we have you representing Maori needs Tama Potaka.
When all is said and done and this Government is gone, only then will Tama realise he would have lost the trust and confidence of Māori, forever. Ake, ake, ake.
I like to think he could build it back - even if the path is a lot longer than most
If you say “That’s a long convo we can’t have” enough times you run out if time to have that conversation.
ANSWER THE QUESTION FFS !!!!!
I live in Hamilton and the people here say the tax cuts don't fund one role of ass paper.
You can't make a cup of tea without the water Tama Kupapa, one must know the source of water.
If we are in a housing crises why are you boosting immigration?
He was put on the spot & couldn’t give a strait answer ! Tama Potaka what a muppet
He can't answer the question because the truth is Maori have never ceded their sovereignty. Colonized tokenistic mowri. He don't care about Maori he cares more about supporting his white boss.

This guy has his feet in both camps not to be trusted he is the one advising Luxon on His Maori views
Tama all kaka!!!!!
I wonder how their friendship is after this interview..
One of them was the best man at their wedding :-)
Toeing the line bro!
Tama is full of kakaz !
Money changes people for real !

Blah blah blah...
What about paying more for less public service.
Tama doesn't want to lose his back pocket.
He was getting paid far more before coming to Parliament
Can’t answer a straight question …Julian you did what you could do with a defence bot …all those words and no direct response …hurricane with no humility …shameful Tama
He's such a sellout. Enjoy his first and only term in parliament.
Some of our own must have Voted for these people. i wonder if they wish to comment now.
Kei whea mai Julian. Great interview and you never gave up on the difficult questions. I'm disappointed to see Tama take this hard position and use political tactics to avoid answering the hard questions.

I wareware au... Great interview Julian! Nga mihi aroha, pono, rangimarie!
Answer the questions. His boss taught him well.
Tax cuts for the coalition are about increasing private partnerships/privatising services which should be paid for by taxes.
100%
Tama has to say what his boss tells him. Hes the token māori unfortunately
He supports himself no one else
Selling us out! Money man Potaka!
Julian the Goat
He nakahi ia!!!! KAITUKINO!!
Selling his soul
I don't want more money for discretionary spending - I want robust public services!!
Me aroha ki te tangata.
Auē, he is disappointing.
Toitū Te Tiriti
Disgraceful.

Arohamai Julian, Maori while a treaty partner are minority. The class system entrenched in our founding is not going to go away with this government
