Te Pāti Māori’s obsession with race has sunk to a new low – and it’s about time they were held accountable by the media.

Today in Parliament, Rawiri Waititi asked an MP on the Government benches, ‘What blood quantum are you?’

It beggars belief that TPM’s extremism has now extended to the dangerous and divisive idea that how much ‘Māori blood’ a person has in their body should matter.

Te Pāti Māori are race fanatics – they believe a person’s race is more than all the other attributes that make up a person.

If any other political party behaved in this way, they would lead the 6pm news. The media’s double standard needs to end, and they need to start exposing this behaviour for what it is.

Thankfully, the vast majority of New Zealanders, including Māori, want nothing to do with their obsession with race.

ACT believes there should be a place for everyone in New Zealand, a free society that respects the rights of each person to live in equal dignity.

With the Treaty Principles Bill, ACT is standing up for that timeless and essential idea that it doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from or what your race is, you will be treated the same under the law of this country by the government.
