The NZ Centre for Political Research reveals Stuart Crosby, Doug Leeder and 13 other local body politicians voted to undermine our democracy!
This group, The National Council for Local Government NZ, voted for and sent the following resolution to parliament. 'That the ability to demand a poll to overturn a council decision to create a Maori ward or constituency is anomalous and discriminatory and should be removed.”
These people, who are paid large amounts by you and I, obviously have no idea of their duty to promote democratic policy, as demanded by the communities to which they are the servants.
I believe Crosby and Leeder should be removed from office. We are sick and tired of people trying to create separatism in New Zealand.

A council's decision to establish a Maori ward can be subject to a referendum which can overturn the Council's decision. A council's decision to establish any other new ward is not subject to a referendum that can overturn the council's decision. So surely it is the current anomalous situation discriminating only against Maori wards that is separatist, racist and undemocratic?
