I saw Maori party policy - was it 50% Maori in ceo roles? I'm Maori and its laughable.

I've tried to find this policy online but I haven't been able to. Would you be able to provide a link?

Sorry, had a look through and was incorrect (hence the question mark).

  • allocate 50% of police, court and corrections funding to Maori authorities.

  • allocate 50% of new state houses to Maori.

I genuinely think they do their cause more harm than good.

So do I - make no mistake Maori were repressed and disadvantaged, but you can't throw a policy out and expect it all to change.
