Maori Party no Sell Out:

Others in the House are calling Maori Party sell outs:

Far from it, if there was one thing Hone Harawira can be proud about staying in the Maori Party it is for the support Maori Party are giving National over the ETS:

Basically a deal that gives Iwi this and that: not going into it here: for support to pass the bill through the house: Hone should be proud: OK Nga Puhi got nothing this time, but did they have too: Must they always get something?

My people, Tuhoe, Tu Wharetoa - Its our turn now, waiting patiently on the side lines, not casuing to much fuss and in the knowledge that if we do our mahi and we carry on and wait our time will come: Low and be hold our turn finally comes and yet another hurdle:

The skull duggary that exists though so others can have a two cent worth of nothing to try and deflate our pride: wont work today: The Maori party is right behind the deal and they should be: Our Nation is changing, and our people are becoming much more dynamic:

I am proud the Leadership and Mana the Party have showed, and they way they hammered out a deal and got through it all, they have showed they have great policy development skills and are able to make an awesome contribution to the Government:

I applaud the Maori Party Senior Leadership, Pita, Tariana and especially Senior Whip Te Ururoa Flavell, for fronting up and putting their name to this bill:

My whanau will get there just this time and it wont just be for us we have many deals across the land, so again those who say poor Ngati Porou, well you know nothing Tuwharetoa have mana that goes to Kahungunu and Porou so get it right:

You are doing my peop;le more harm, the faster this goes ahead and we get it sorted the better for us all:
